RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

I am an interior designer in Philadelphia who also loves to cook. My husband and I throw parties that our friends talk about for years after and when we bring goodies to a friend's party or help them throw a party other guests try to hire us to cater their events! RecipeZaar has helped me out many a time when I am stuck for novel ideas for party food, or just something different for dinner. Thanks everybody, I've had many a great dish from recipes and ideas I've found on this site!
