For those interested, update on my hand. The scabs from the stitching are almost gone. Still stiffness in my hand but making progress with the Physical Therapy twice awake. There is still swelling around the incision on the back of my hand where the tendons were repaired but has been decreasing with the use of a compression sleeve over the hand and wrist area. After PT, the nerves seem to be more irritated and causing increased pain in my shoulder arm and hand. It's not so bad until night time when the pain increases and disturbs sleep. But getting through it.
I am looking forward to trying to requalify for the World Food Championships when they open for Taste of America soon. I just can't imagine not being there after 8 straight years.

Thank you all for your support, prayers, and well wishes. I appreciate you all

What fuels my fire to cook? That's a question I get asked a lot. Truth is, I don't like cooking..... For myself. My reason for cooking is because I like to nourish people with food. I want people to enjoy the sensuality of food and the different flavors that awaken people's taste buds. My story is spoken through what I serve. My pride comes from how much pleasure people get from eating food.

Food should be an adventure, an experience, a love, a sensation. So many people eat to eat in this fast paced world. It's time to stop!!! Slow down!!!! Enjoy the explosion and exploration that great food can bring to your palette.

Chef Michael Hogan (an award winning Chef) can bring passionate life to your food in the form of Catering, Private Classes, Date Night, Dinner Parties, and your Main Event.

Climb aboard and sail away with me to your Private Food Island.

We use our hands for several things without noticing it. I use my hands more than a lot of people because of cooking. The last few days my hand has been hurting enough to wake me from sleep and to keep me awake. I have taken Tylenol PM melatonin, tumeric, magnesium, mushroom tincture, and other sleep aids. They work for a while, but the pain gets worse everyday and especially at night. There are things I can't take because of my GI bleed last year.

It's frustrating and not sure if it is the tendons or the nerves from the Parsonage Turner Syndrome. Hopefully in a month the surgery to repair the tendons will eventually lead to some relief even though I know that following the surgery things will be very painful at first.

I refuse to let it bring me down. I continue to fight through the pain, numbness, frustration, and sleep deprivation. It's not easy, but because of my HANDS DOWN NEVER SURRENDER attitude, I will keep pushing through.
