Detroit, Mich., April 1, 2020 - Yesterday I began the day very hopeful with a full agenda making sure I keep my PR day job, continue administrative work related to sourcing foods, contributions, and talking to our homeless shelters as are of “Too Many Cooks in the Kitchen for Good.” However, before I could pack my go-bag with knives, apron, gloves and mask, I received a call. My next door neighbors died from COVID19. Mr. Williams was only about 60 years old. He was an U.S Army veterans, father to three children, husband, and a great neighbor. His wife is sick too and fighting for her life. I tried to hold back my tears after hearing the news, grinding my teeth hard, my vision became blurred and the tears came down uncontrollably. I reverted to grounding techniques I learned from my therapy sessions on how to ground yourself when dealing with mental stress. When my vision cleared and with a few tissue daps around my eyes, I picked up my bag strapped on my mask and headed to the kitchen. — “Too Many Cooks in the Kitchen for Good.” As they say we are building a plane while flying it trying to do our part to help of homeless shelters and food insecure in DETROIT amid the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic. If you know Chef Genevieve, you know she is all about cooking healthy, low to no salt or sugar, gluten free and allergen free foods. For Chef Genevieve food is life and has the power to heal and strengthen. — “Too Many Cooks in the Kitchen for Good,” powered by restaurateurs Ron Bartell (Kuzzo's Chicken and Waffles), Stephanie Byrd (The Block, Flood's Bar and Grille), David Rudolph (D.

His name is John Laura and he is one of Chef Maxcel’s culinary students as at part of GreenHorne Training Solutions Program based at Focus Hope. I applaud John because he does not have to do this, talk about crisis cooking oh my. However, every day he and three other students come to help the chefs. When their learning is over someone better snap them up because at this point this training is not textbook. Also thank you to @thehoratiowilliamsfoundation for providing a place for “Too Many Cooks in the Kitchen for Good.” When this is over everyone should know your facility allowed magic to happen, for love and grace for those of us trying to take care of our food insecure and homeless population in Detroit. — “Too Many Cooks in the Kitchen for Good,” powered by restaurateurs Ron Bartell (Kuzzo's Chicken and Waffles), Stephanie Byrd (The Block, Flood's Bar and Grille), David Rudolph (D.
