Hi, I'm Shannon. I live in Somerset County, New Jersey with my husband and our three rescue animals. I work locally and frequently patron libraries, farmers markets and cheese sections everywhere.

I believe food is happiness and comfort and love; and that's worth sharing. Life is short - so count your blessings and love out loud.
