What is the new series like?
My new cooking series is a longer version of my YouTube show Ali in the Valley. I show you how to prepare simple and tasty recipes but the show will morph into more of a lifestyle show as we go. Taking the viewer on my adventures of shopping for great ingredients and going to great places to eat.
I also have another show called Ali’s House Jam which combines my love of music and food. As it happens every month artists show up at my home and I cook them their favorite meal and after the artist wines up performing for my friends and I.

What's your favorite thing about fall?
What's your favorite thing about fall?
My favorite thing about fall, is it’s cooler outside. I live in the country side of Los Angeles in Chatsworth and it’s extremely dry and hot during the summer so by the time fall comes around I’m so ready for the cooler weather. It gives me more time working on my garden and hiking in the hills basically more time outside since it’s not burning hot.
