Kitchen Renovation/Design Consultation:
I've helped PCC design their teaching kitchens and I've renovated my own kitchen, doing much of the work myself. I can show you elements of my kitchen that help a cook be more efficient and how I incorporated green design into my renovation. I can also go to your house and consult with you about your renovation plans. $125 per hour, over 3 hours, the price is reduced to $100 per hour.

Kitchen/Pantry Overhaul:
I've gone into client's homes and kindly, efficiently and brutally :) worked with them to give their kitchen tools and mystery pantry ingredients a streamlining. Dried parsley from the Pleistocene Era? 3 models of Bread Makers you never use? Those go into the garbage and Goodwill pile, respectively. I educate my clients how to use 1 tool for multiple purposes and help them organize their spices and ingredients to maximize space and minimize clutter. By the time I leave you will feel inspired and ready to cook and excited about all our anal retentive labeling*. $125 per hour, over 3 hours, the price is reduced to $100 per hour. *must not fear the label maker.

Food styling I style naturally - no glues, sprays, gels, etc - just real food and really teeny tiny tweezers. $100 per hour.

Consultation Restaurant menu consultation, sustainable seafood consultation, consultations on consultation ;) $100 per hour
