Sometimes inspiration comes from the least expected places. My father in law is diabetic and to make a long story short, my frustrations with his diet (or lack of) had brought me to contact a raw chef that I didn't realize was so famous for his culinary talents. I would blab on here about him if I knew I wouldn't sound like a schoolgirl, but honestly, for someone famous to hand out their phone number to you in order to help with a life or death situation is humbling. Maybe that's not quite the word I am looking for, but we all become on the same level of humanity when this situation presents itself. It's always a breath of fresh air to see someone of his caliber to not have the ugly ego that so many do.
Matthew Kenney is his name, and he has become a source of inspiration for me- he is a gentle spirit with wild raw culinary talent with vision to spare. He teaches at his restaurant in too-far-awayVille. I have signed up for just the beginnings of culinary school starting September and only dream of one day finishing at one like his. But is 45 too old? Hell no. Life is young. Never too late. I say. Enjoy the creative God-given talents and passions.
Look him up. He just may inspire you as well.
About Me
- Jo
- Wine Country, Ca, United States
- By day I am a Business owner, Mother and wife, house cleaner, taxi driver and laundress, obtaining physical health through raw food nutrition; this being my personal challenge. Actually I love cooking and learning new things, I am an on & off raw Foodist to help me with my Systemic Lupus; however I do eat raw fish and sometimes raw dairy. I guess I would consider myself a "raw pescatarian" aside from the occasional raw goats milk / cheese once in a blue moon.
