I started cooking for the love of cooking, and I am going to keep cooking whether there's a celebrity aspect to it or not.

I'm engaged in food on so many levels, and I love that. So my work, my craft, is around food, and writing is one aspect of it; communicating a narrative, cooking online is one aspect of it; solving the food chasm that we have in Harlem and finding a farmers market is another one, and all of them are equally exciting for me.

I feel like there's a lot of tasks in cooking that I want to master, that I want to do better.
