Foodessa Fall Favorites: Shorter days and cooler moments reach for heart and tummy warming recipes. Colors abound with textures grasping our attention to cook for gatherings.

Обо мне

FOOD is always in my thoughts and conversations.
"Food should be: visually pleasing...tasty...delicious...memorable."

Once upon a time...Claudia's FOODESSA...a Food Fairy Countessa...gloriously came to life.
She was created out of pure delight and a desperate need for distraction.
Mostly...it was time to share my kitchen's heart with others.

I consider myself fortunate to be both of Italian origins and given birth in the city of Montreal, Canada.
Excitement and creativity run very high throughout this city's vivacious melting pot.
My flavour for life is the extension of this generously inspiring city.

Accomplishing what seems at times impossible has defined my ongoing need to open my heart to all possibilities when I least expect them.

Throughout my professional venues, I have led myself through the paths of:
Interior design, Fashion, Travel...and later towards having my own Bed and Breakfast.

My primary hobbies: photography, painting, gardening...have kept me very busy and gratefully out of trouble.

So...what experience do I hold in the kitchen?
Well, after having made ‘lasagna’ sheets with mom at the age of five...I pretty much never looked back from that very pivotal moment.

Sometimes you would think I was born with a spatula in one hand... and all else to do with cooking and baking in the other hand.

Not many moments come close to the excitement I feel when I succeed a difficult recipe.
Especially, if the recipe happens to become a product of a re-created popular recipe.

However, what exhilarates me the most...is when I have originated a recipe of my very own with great triumph.

So...am I a good cook? Heck...yes!
However, admittedly, some not so great meals have been forcefully eaten at our table.
Remember...waste not!

Am I a good baker?
Well...I would like to believe that I am ;o)
However, with a little more practice and many calories later...I will hopefully one day grace that line-up of great bakers I admire.

I am looking forward to sharing what I experience and create, just as much as learning from you will surely inspire a continued journey.

Here's to more insight towards a...
FASCINATING - EMPOWERING - GASTRONOMIC JOURNEY.

It will be most interesting to see how many persons share my sentiment.
Wishing you all the very best and flavourful wishes,
Claudia {Foodessa}

Oh my gosh! You amongst others have been such a relief to me! Thought I had a problem... I'm obsessed with cooking. I study menus on urbanspoon, daily. I've been in the restaurant business in varying positions for almost 30 years. Home cooking seems to be what people fall back on time and time again. I appreciate new challenges and testing them out on my entourage of foodies. Very much looking forward to viewing your recipes and trying them matched with your enthusiasm for posting them!

Hi there dear Foodessa,
Its a real honor to be here. I love it! Only wish I had more time to be around. Hah, If I only knew about your records! I'm glad though that you made some space in the kitchen because I love your recipes and can't wait for more to come. I'm going grocery shopping tomorrow, so I'll definitely pick something and let you know how it worked out for me. Wishing you all the best and loads of smile! :)

  Hello Nanette...sorry to read about your cyber frustrations. I totally understand...I've had more than my share.
  As far as your particular enquiry, I would highly suggest that you address CES directly. They will get back to you fairly quickly (usually no longer than 2 days). Just go to bottom right hand side of the HOME page and click on the FEEDBACK link.
  Hope this helps you. Good luck and looking forward to exchanging recipes with you soon ;o)
  
  Flavourful wishes,
  Claudia

Thank you for your acceptance and following me. I’m fairly new as a member and I would like to say thank you for sharing all your recipes. Baking is something I truly enjoy and hopefully I too will be sharing good tasting desserts filled with passion and everlasting scrumptious taste.

Again, thank you.
