My Qualifications as a Cooking Co-op Coach

I graduated from high school and college in the 1970's- a time when more and more women were shifting to jobs outside the home.  I was the first female financial advisor hired in my office.  I am a Senior Vice President with a major financial securities firm in which I have worked 31 years.  I was the first female to referee high school football in Virginia.  But I still had to orchestrate getting dinner on the table for a growing family.  And for 21 cooking co-op years,  I've been scrambling more than eggs- scrambling to get it all done with the help of 1 husband(married 28 years), 3 children, and 8 different cooking co-op groups.  I'm the experiment- the results are in- the benefits of regular family mealtimes are huge.  Cooking co-op has helped me plan and create interesting, varied, home-made dinners- a background to the sharing of family values, ideas, and conversations while enjoying every phase and stage of mine and my children's lives.  My oldest daughter is a graduate of the University of North-Chapel Hill.  She is now an assistant market editor for Elle Decor in NY City.  My second daughter attends the University of Virginia and my son is an honor roll student in middle school.  Breaking bread together gives a sense of belonging so bring back the family meal.  Food nourishes the body as well as the soul.  It's time to start a food revolution now by fighting traffic, schedules, and a reluctance to cook and get home, sit down, and celebrate the day with family mealtime.  You can do it.  It's important to all aspects of your life.  My website and DVD will show you how.  The revolution starts now, one new cooking co-op group at a time.
