What a beautiful full-circle moment…

I had the pleasure of welcoming Moira Henkel, President of Fumana Wines International to my Heartcrafted book launch. Little known history: I LOVE South African wine!!!
She gifted me a bottle from her Gretchen Collection — Delish Red, and let me just say… absolutely stunning.

Velvet on the palate, perfectly balanced, and refreshingly smooth — a true expression of South African wine.

Moments like this remind me that when passion meets purpose, the right connections find you.

I’m excited to explore what’s ahead…

SOLD OUT!!! 💙🍽️📚

I’m beyond grateful for the incredible response to the Heartcrafted Book Signing & Tasting Experience.

Thank you to everyone who secured a spot — I can’t wait to cook for you, connect with you, and celebrate this moment together.

Heartcrafted is truly reaching hearts… and kitchens.

See you soon! 💙

If you missed this experience, stay connected — more Heartcrafted moments are on the way.

Sometimes love doesn’t make an announcement…
it simply shows up.

I baked this pineapple silk cake again — soft, light, and wrapped in intention —
because pouring into the people who pour into you is always worth the effort.

This is what Heartcrafted looks like.
Quiet sweetness.
Gentle presence.
Love you can taste. 🍍

Thanks for the review Lorraine Johnson!

Once I got my copy of Heartcrafted, I was sooo ready to dive in!
I flipped through the recipes to see
what I could make with what I had on hand-and jackpot
The Maple Dijon Baked Chicken was a WINNER!
Listen...
Flavorful, easy, and absolutely delicious. This recipe did NOT disappoint!
Chef Tere, you did that!



I challenge all home cooks to step out of the usual and be more creative in the kitchen!
