So the holiday season is upon us. When I was asked to be an Urban Life Northwest contributor, I was very excited to share my passion for cooking. I am a huge fan of the holiday season. Cooking and entertaining clients and friends is what I live for. My love for holiday cooking began with what my mother and grandmother would cook for the holidays. One of the things, I would always look forward to were the rum balls my mother would make. I loved them so much that while in the navy, my mother sent a batch to me as a care package. When they arrived on the ship she gained a few more sons. The guys on board begged me to ask her to send more. Over time, I added my own twist to this recipe. Anyone who knows me, knows that.
