Acerca de mí
I confess. I have an obsession. My name is Melissa Pelkey-Hass, and I am a foodie.
I am super excited to write about my passion… cooking, wine and FOOD! I like to discuss everything from planning and preparation of 30 minute weeknight meals to elaborate, five and seven course weekend dinner parties. I enjoy creating romantic meals for two and meals that can feed families of five. I love catering to football season and sports parties, bridal showers and beyond!
I love teaching what items are budget friendly, where you can skimp and where you should…ahem…not. I love teaching health friendly foods and their benefits, to falling in love with decadent desserts to how to grow a pallet garden in a very limited space. I love to teach canning foods from your garden with recipes like Mama’s Chow Chow to Bread and Butter pickles. After all that, we’ll all sit a spell and have a picnic!
I’ll tell you all about my Mr. Hass Sweet and his take on my kitchen shenanigans, to virtually inviting you to our dinner parties, celebrations and dinners out on the town.
I love to explore ideas for fresh and funky breakfasts and amazing appetizers to wowing your most special guests, innovative entrees, homemade breads and butters, herbs and spices, spunky sides, and easy crock pot meals! PIES! CAKES! COOKIES, COBBLERS, and ICE CREAM OH MY!
Some days I'm New York Classy and other days, downhome, Southern and sassy! You name it; I love it all! No topics are off limits! ...and there's always a place at my table for you!
