Lauren Bank Deen and Kitchen Playdates!

Lauren Bank Deen is uniquely qualified as an expert in the world of food, families, style and fun. She is a mom, executive board member of her children's public school PTA, and an award winning lifestyle television producer. You may think that Lauren's resume' that includes being the first sous-chef at Food Network, a series producer for Martha Stewart and a Blue Ribbon graduate of Peter Kump's NY Cooking School (I.C.E.) is what drew me to her but it wasn't.

Lauren is the creator of Kitchen Playdates and author of the book of the same name. Kitchen Playdates are Lauren's answer to bring adult and child fun together. Personally for Lauren, Kitchen Playdates blends together all that she knows and loves into a career that "gives back" to others AND herself! She is a fantastic example of a woman, mother and professional creating the career of her dreams!

Thank you, Lauren, for ingenuity and style, and for giving us all a fun way to spend time together! You are a true Aspiring Woman!
