Have spatula, will travel

Besides being passionate about keeping fit and staying healthy, I'm also somewhat of a foodie.  I love to cook and create or tweak recipes and often times think about a career as a personal chef if I ever got tired of being an Accountant. 
I found a contest online to create an original signature dessert recipe earlier today and I'm really thinking about taking a shot at it.  My baking skills are fairly strong and I think I could put together something I would be proud of.  This afternoon while trying to finish up my last few projects for the week, I started throwing ideas around and got a few nods from my co-workers.  I'm going to give it serious thought this weekend and see if I can nail down a good recipe and start testing it out.  Thank goodness I also have co-workers and friends that will try my masterpieces and give me their honest yet supportive opinions.

I've got one month to perfect my signature dessert...wish me luck!

Lindsay,
I hope you do great with your Signature Dessert. Being a former Executive Chef this interests me. Gave it all up to drive a Taxi, hey it's a lot of fun

Good Luck

Thanks for the encouragement Scott! I have quite a few ideas running through my head, it's getting them all sorted out and not getting too carried away.
I can only imagine what an executive chef thinks about when putting together dishes and a menu for that matter.
