Sheila Spector has lived and cooked all over the U.S., both in her own kitchen, in commercial kitchens, culinary shops, synagogues, and community centers. A dyed-in-the-wool cook, Sheila once sold her rugula to Dean & Deluca in Georgetown, Washington, D.C. and continues to sell it each year at San Luis Obispo’s Apples & Honey Festival, hosted by the Jewish Community Center Federation. Sheila and I talked about baking cakes without yeast or flour during Passover, her mother’s legacy, and about her blog, dinneratsheilas.com, which she started on a whim.
