We met at a mutual friend's literary-themed Halloween party. Jess dressed up as Ernest Hemingway during his time in Cuba, and Sarah dressed up as a character from the Great Gatsby. The combination of grey fake mustache and floor-length blue sequined dress turned into a great future together!

Jessica Anny Molina Acevedo was born in San Marcos, Nicaragua in 1975, and came to southern California with her family when she was 7. She enjoys fixing up classic cars, baking and cooking, and listening to music (some of her favorite bands are Sonic Youth, Patti Smith, and Kate Bush). Jess began her college education as an art major, and then realized she could express her creativity through food. She has been cooking professionally for the past 20 years, 12 of which have been in the Bay Area. Her favorite thing about Sarah is her laughter and her beautiful singing voice.

Sarah Elizabeth Wheatley Letson is from Newtown, Connecticut. After being raised in a wonderful family, she left her charming New England town to attend the University of Chicago, in Illinois. After graduating from the University with a double major in Biology & Anthropology, Sarah decided to call the beautiful Golden State of California home. Sarah enjoys being surrounded by nature, traveling, gardening, dancing, singing and attending folk music festivals, to name a few of her passions. She is a strong advocate for social justice and a positive supporter of her community. Sarah's favorite thing about Jess is that she makes her laugh and continues to be a supportive and loving partner.
