In 1983 I returned to the United States and worked for eleven years in Washington DC. During that time I held the position of Sous Chef at the Hay Adams &amp; Jefferson hotels. I&#8217;ve had the good fortune to cook for some important people during my career including, Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, President Bush, President Reagan, former President Nixon, former Vice-President Mondale, Senator E. Kennedy, Ethel Kennedy, Alexander Haig, Admiral Crowe (former US Ambassador to Britain) also many famous movie stars including&#8230;Michelle Pfeiffer, Paul Newman, Linda Carter, Omar Sheriff, and TV personalities such as Larry King. I&#8217;m an experienced cooking demonstrator having performed in front of large audiences at food shows both sides of the Atlantic including the BBC Good Food Show (NEC), The Homes &amp; Garden Show(NEC), and The Total Sandwich Show at Olympia in London. I&#8217;ve worked for companies including, Asda, Heinz, Somerfield, Pork Farm Bowyer&#8217;s &amp; Knorr, doing cooking demonstrations. I enjoyed doing several guest appearences on cooking shows in America and would love the chance to do more. I&#8217;ve been written about in both newspapers &amp; magazines in England, USA, Bermuda and Holland. For the last 2 1\/2 years I have been writing a weekly recipe column for the Birmingham Sunday Mercury, which has an estimated readership of 500,000. I&#8217;m currently writing my first cook book, and am really enjoying this new side of my career.&#8221;<\/p><!--CusAds-->\n<p>I truly enjoy cooking and as I browse through my new roomies site I&#8217;ve discovered a number of recipes that I would enjoy trying.  The site is interesting to read, humorous, and contains some mouth watering temptations.
