I am a single mom with 3 beautiful children. They keep me very busy.

I grew up in a small town in southwest Virginia but have now settled down in the mountains of Tennessee.
I have also lived in Oklahoma, Texas, Alaska and Washington.
Throughout the years, I have met lots of wonderful people and made some great lifelong friends who share my love for cooking. I always enjoy all the new dishes that my friends and family share with me.
The best gift I ever received was my digital camera! I hardly ever go anywhere without it...you never know when you might have a 'kodak moment'.
I love to entertain and have friends and family over and they love to come and eat!!
My kitchen is always open with good food and warm conversation!
My motto is:
The recipe that is not shared with others will soon be forgotten; but when it is shared, it will be enjoyed by future generations.
My icon is the PINK BREAST CANCER AWARENESS RIBBON.
It is in memory of my sister
who passed away from a very aggresive form of breast cancer on July 25, 2002. She was my best friend and I miss her very much. We always loved to 'talk food' and she would have loved RecipeZaar as much as I do.
Ladies, please remember to do your monthly self-examinations. It could save your life.
It's hard to say what my favorite foods are. I love so many different things and am always open to try new recipes, but I would have to say that dark chocolate is my big weakness.
Family and friends are always requesting my Chicken ParmeRona #114964 served with Scampi Noodles #115513.
