Chef! I love you and Jack, I just want you to know how important your videos are to me.
I was never taught the basics of cooking, food was not seen as a gathering opportunity, it caused a lot of stress for my parents who were from the Great Depression. When I got married, I quickly learned I better learn how to cook - haha! I have improved in 27 years of marriage but it wasn’t until I found your videos that my passion has been reignited for cooking for friends and family. In fact, my Bible Study Group have been so impressed by how much I have improved that they have asked me to create bi-monthly menus and do the cooking for around 20 - they all bring containers to take leftovers, if there are any, I find that a very high complement. It has made me so happy and brings such Blessing and Joy to cook for them. I have found a new energy to teach my last 2 children (sons) all that I have learned as well. I am teaching them how to make menus and use basic techniques; in fact I plan to teach these basic skills to our Homeschool Co-Op and my teenagers actually WANT to be in my class!! I keep telling them that men who can cook are never lonely! I remind them the first winner of Survivor was the cook ;-)
Thanks to you, I have changed our relationship with food and have even cut our grocery costs by making more items myself and making ahead/storing items for later. While some of the ingredients are certainly more expensive, I have researched to find affordable alternatives by going to different markets. However, I often do use the better ingredients because it is so much more enjoyable and the food is eaten instead of being left to die as forgotten leftovers that have to be thrown out. When I tell my friends I make my own butter or ice cream they think it is all bad for them, then they taste it and many are now making their own changes. They can’t believe good food can taste good. The ladies in our Study Group are going to do bi-monthly get together to all cook together, learn and each take home shared creations. That is called building our community and I love it.
I am a Florida Native yet I have moved states, but I will come to Florida if you have a Fan Meet Up. I’d love to cook with you. Thank you all you do!!

Jack here 🙂 I just want to start by saying. Thank you Shannon. I know I can say that for everyone here it was a true pleasure to read your comment. It brings so much joy to me hearing that you share this knowledge that you have gained with the people around you. Building community is such an integral part of our society and you contribute so much to everyone around you! Thank you so much for being a kind and pure soul Shannon. Making the people around you happy is one of the greatest things you could ever do. When the Chef does his meetup I would be delighted to be able to talk with you and hear more about you. - Jack
