16-year-old son, Liam, is a super-talented young chef-in-progress, and he's planning to attend culinary school after he graduates.

"I wasn't exactly sure what Liam's strawberry roses would look like, so I asked him to make a couple for me on a trial run. He had recently been experimenting with making strawberry roses with unused strawberries from a fruit platter he had made for a party at the country club and produced the prettiest strawberry roses. His knack for creating edible art was in full bloom! I was pleasantly surprised and proud!"
