People always wonder why 2hot4kitty.com is my website name and email address.
Well, here’s the story…
Years ago, before I started Erika’s Catering business, I tried out many career paths after graduating with a Culinary Arts degree from the CA Culinary Academy in San Francisco. I became a private chef for local families, I ran a delivery service for my meals, and I even considered packaged deli salsa’s.
This is when the the 2hot4kitty name came to life….
During that time of seeking out that perfect culinary profession, I had a boyfriend (who is now my husband of 15 years). We were young and in love, and we had affectionate pet name’s for each other. I called him “Puppy” and he called me “Kitty,” and we both thought the salsa idea sounded like fun to try out. So I gave it a try.
One afternoon while experimenting with salsa recipes, I concocted a fabulous batch of BBQ smoked peppers that I prepared into a absolutely delicious salsa. My boyfriend loved it and all my friends loved it! There was a problem though. I thought it was too hot. It was too hot for Kitty. Too hot for Kitty… 2 Hot 4 Kitty… That was it! 2 Hot 4 Kitty was to be the name for my salsa!
So, we got the 2hot4kitty.com domain name, set up a salsa themed website, and set up my email address. Soon after, I decided to become a professional caterer instead. Yup! The 2Hot4Kitty salsa never came to be, and the website got reworked into what you see today.
Maybe some day I’ll venture into the salsa idea again, it was fun. For now, I’ll aspire to be your professional caterer.
