about me

A single mom who grew up watching her own mother ( and Dad, and Grannie, and Uncle's, and Aunt's) in the kitchen, absorbing their techniques and recipes like a risotto absorbs stock and wine. Although, admittedly not as refined as a risotto... I'd describe my cooking as "Down home, family food with a decidedly southern, "comfort food" feel, accented with the new flavors and experiences I've had after leaving the nest."

Favorite Foods:

Southern Fried Potatoes
Fried Okra
Fried Chicken
Spaghetti Squash
Herbed Roasted Baby Potatoes
Apple Turnovers
Croissants
Pulled Pork / Machaca
Hot wings
Chili
Herb Risotto
Ravioli
Fish N Chips
Calamari
Scallops of ANY kind.
