Donna was fantastic! She was very attentive and patient with my 10 year old daughter. My daughter loved working with her, and she learned some great skills after just one session! Donna was pleasant, fun and respectful of our kitchen and home as well as I highly recommend her!

I'm a middle aged woman wanting to shed some pounds without shedding flavor - Donna makes excellent healthful food based on classic mediterranean and california cuisine for me. We come up with a menu together comprising proteins, grains, veggies, and a wee starch or two. she also packs some extra surprise goodies. she delivers for a little extra which is great for my schedule. I couldn't recommend her more highly - everything she makes is super tasty, and she's as fabulous as her food.
