Services & Pricing
By
taking over your weekly chores of menu planning, grocery shopping, preparing your
meals and cleaning the mess, I can save you precious time each week to spend
doing what's most important to you. Just
think what you could do with a couple of extra hours in your day?
I will arrive at your home with all of the ingredients for
your special menu. I then prepare the meals to your specifications. Whether you like your food hot or mild, low
fat or low sodium, fancy or simple, all food is made to fit your needs. I begin each Weekly Service plan with
a dietary assessment interview to help determine your eating preferences. This information will be used to help plan
your future menus. The service can be
one time or on-going, as needed.
Weekly Meal service is priced based on an hourly rate for
professional services plus the cost of ingredients.
Entertaining? Let me take over the
chore of planning, shopping, cooking and cleaning so you can spend time with
your guests. I can prepare anything ranging from hors d'oeuvres and platters to
a full dinner buffet. Perfect for holiday parties, anniversaries, birthdays,
graduations, or any occasion.
Want to impress that special someone? Add a special touch to
the evening. This service includes a four course meal along with table service.
I can even provide flowers and wine and clean up after dinner, leaving you free
to entertain your guest. Click here for Sample
Menus.
