ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
I would like to express my sincere gratitude to all my family for continuing to push me to fulfill my dreams! Especially my mother, who, not knowing the reason, a couple of years ago had a premonition and told me to make recipes every day. This book is the outcome of that. Thank you mom. David, thank you for all your ideas that keep my mind on overdrive. Dad, thank you for giving me an entrepreneurial spirit and drive to be the best. To Dr. Colman and Dr. Schillings at the Pediatric Specialists of Bloomfield Hills, thank you for your guidance and providing excellent care for my children. To Dr. Joelle Mays and family, thank you for being so helpful and influential in more ways than you know. Special thanks to my mother-in-law and extended family for being so supportive. Helen, Layna, Aaran, and Deborah, you all had a profound impact in my life. Lastly, thank you, Victoria Sandbrook, for presenting this opportunity and Wendy Simard for your guidance and hard work on this book.
