"from the heart."
"The 'heart' preparation is essential," she says. "Are

Mills learned how to cook from her grandmother
and parents. Cooking simply was just always part of
her everyday life and she enjoys sharing the experience
with family and friends, especially around the holidays.
"Holiday is all about family and friends; I am
blessed that my vocation encompasses both, as the
people at FRIENDS of the Blue Ridge Parkway have
become my chosen family and friends," she says. "We
not only share the holidays, but much of our time
together. What greater blessing could anyone have for
the holidays?"
