b'Author of the cookbook, "Cooking With My Mother", Haitian born Elsy Dinvil really didn\'t have a choice to be in the kitchen, it was expected of the women in the culture. So she cooked and cooked until illness struck her in 2005. For the next six years, she underwent tests and surgeries until she decided to take charge of her own diet and body. She developed her own recipes and figured out how to avoid many allergies. She trained as a chef in Haiti and is certified. A thrifty business owner, Elsy has figured out how to stretch her money. Beginning with doing pop-ups, she has spread the word on her packaged food in the trenches and now with more mass media with her cookbook. Her hustle also got her in contact with a commercial kitchen to increase production.\\n\\n"Masoni and Marshall the meaningful Marketplace" with your hosts Sarah Masoni and Sarah Marshall\\n\\nWe record the "the Meaningful Marketplace" inside NedSpace in the Bigfoot Podcast Studio in beautiful downtown Portland.\\n\\nAudio engineer, mixer and podcast editor is Allon Beausoleil\\n\\nShow logo was designed by Anton Kimball of Kimball Design\\n\\nWebsite was designed by Cameron Grimes\\n\\nProduction assistant is Chelsea Lancaster\\n\\n10% of gross revenue at Startup Radio Network goes to support women entrepreneurs in developing countries thru kiva.org/lender/markgrimes\\n\\nListen to the "Masoni and Marshall the meaningful marketplace" live on-air every Friday at 9:00am pacific time on Startup Radio Network at startupradionetwork.com'
