​

Growing up, great food and conversation went hand-in-hand for my family. Seeing family and friends together was a true indication that the day would be great! After beginning college at The University of Alabama, I quickly realized the joy associated with cooking and bringing people together! My love for cooking stemmed from what I was taught as a child by my grandmother, Ida.

​

I began experimenting with new recipes and reveled at the idea of seeing all of my friends enjoying one another’s company.

One could say that “Jess Let It Simmer” was a common theme that followed well into adulthood. The joy it brought serving family/friends while quieting the outside noise for guests became tradition for me.

​

Jess Let It Simmer’s foundation is strongly rooted in getting back to the basics of fellowship! Although technology has changed the way we’re able to communicate; a dinner table, great people and an amazing meal will work wonders. For the busy parent that doesn’t have the time to create moments of true intimacy with a spouse, the young professional dreaming of times when they can connect with adults outside of work, or the friend that simply misses their friends and wants to create a memorable moment; Jess Let It Simmer is for you! We also have had the wonderful opportunity to offer catering and meal prep services.

 

Invite your guests and leave the rest to us!
