Everyone can cook!
Welcome to Gilded Alley
Helping you Become a Confident Home Cook
Hey there, I’m Jodi, and I’m here to help you become a confident and skilled home cook. Whether you’re a beginner or looking to expand your culinary repertoire, I’m excited to guide you through your cooking journey and make the kitchen a fun and inviting place.
Sharing my Experience and Knowledge
With over 40 years of experience as a home cook and baker, I’ve learned that cooking doesn’t have to be intimidating. My goal is to provide you with simple, easy-to-follow recipes and helpful tips to make your time in the kitchen enjoyable and stress-free. I’ll also share some moderate-level recipes to help you impress your family and friends, but don’t worry – I’ll be there to walk you through every step.
Guiding You Through Your Culinary Journey
Through informational and instructional articles, I’ll help you master new techniques and gain confidence in your cooking abilities. Together, we’ll explore a variety of dishes, from easy-to-prepare meals and casseroles to crockpot meals, air fryer recipes, and delicious desserts. I’ll show you how to create meals from scratch and how to elevate store-bought items to create quick and tasty dishes.
Learning and Growing Together
As a lifelong learner, I’m always discovering new techniques and tips, which I’m excited to share with you. Let me be your guide and companion on this culinary adventure, and together, we’ll create delicious meals while having a great time in the process.
Beyond The Kitchen
When I’m not in the kitchen, I enjoy spending time with my loving husband of 22 years, my step-daughter, my grandson (who calls me Meemaw), and my adorable Pitty Princess (American Pitbull). I also love reading, watching movies, attending craft and trade fairs, and simply hanging out with my family.
Everyone can cook. Even if it’s just elevating store bought items. Cooking for yourself saves money and is so much healthier.
