Welcome to “a scrumptious life” !
Hi! My name is Val.
Until last September I was a business analyst by day, who loved to cook and entertain – a home cook with no formal training, except for local cooking classes, who basically learned by trial and error. My motto? “Keep it simple….. and delicious” (and not boring!)
Then life “Part Deux” began. I left my company after 30 years, moved to Bluffton SC and began a new career in real estate.
Now it wasn’t really a sudden as it seems. I’d spent four years visiting towns on the southern Atlantic coast trying to figure out where to move. Atlanta is landlocked and I knew I wanted this next phase of my life to be near a beach. Still, an unexpected package from my employer moved up the schedule a bit. But I digress….
I think there’s nothing like good food, good friends and good conversation. When I lived in Atlanta I hosted dinner parties. No potlucks for me – living in the south there are already plenty of opportunities for those! I love planning and preparing the menu, setting the table, choosing the tunes and inviting an interesting mix of people (and of course eating !!!). It’s something I’d like to start again in Bluffton, so I’ll be sharing all those ideas with you.
While this is a food blog, it is called a scrumptious LIFE. I also love traveling, listening to live music, photography, spending time with my dog Maggie and now learning about the SC Lowcountry…. so I’m sure those will wind their way into my posts from time to time.
Thanks for visiting!
btw – I’m always interested in working with brands. Although, I’ll always offer my own opinion about a product. Please email me to discuss further.
