Meet Paula
As many of you who’ve been watching our YouTube channel for any length of time know, Paula is an Ohio gal, born and raised around Cleveland, and a graduate of the University of Akron (Go Zips!). She’s the oldest of eight children, the mother of one, our son Scott, and a very happy grandma to Mykie.
Paula’s career in Information Technology has taken her from the manufacturing world - automotive paints and undercoatings - to hospitality (on the Las Vegas Strip), to utilities. Some of the happiest memories were working at Luxor, and traveling up the Strip after work to catch Dale’s last set, when he was performing in the lounges.
Although she officially retired in 2023, she still works part-time on a consulting basis, as well as dedicating lots of time to the YouTube channel. When she has any spare time (what’s that, she asks), she loves to read, garden, and travel - especially if our granddaughter is the destination!
Paula's Las Vegas Kitchen on YouTube
Fun Fact: Paula's college degree was actually in Foods & Nutrition! So, what better way to put her talents to use than to start a cooking channel? That's exactly what we did, in spring 2020. And then, 3 years later, we decided to feature her on a channel of her own. Check it out!
Paula's Crafting Corner
I've always loved to tackle a craft project...
A few weeks ago, during a rare rainy stretch in Las Vegas, I dug out my old sewing box and came up with an idea. I gathered together some scraps of fabric, a couple of panels of birds I had cross-stitched many years ago, and decided to make a tote bag! It's quilted, it's fully lined, and in fact, it's reversible. All you crafters out there: How great does it feel when it turns out like you dreamed it up in your head, or maybe even better? ~ Paula
