about me

I live on a very large farm here in West Virginia. We really do live off the land. I plant a large garden, I freeze, dehyrate and can everything possible. We raise beef cattle and hunt wild game. It's a family thing.

I met my husband at work. We got stuck on night shift together and he seemed to grow on me like a wart. We married 5 months after we started dating. We have now been married 11 yrs. He's a great husband and father too our two children. Our oldest is in the 6th grade and youngest is in the 5th grade. We have lived all over the east coast. We spent 5 years in South Carolina. I would have to say it was a great 4 years. I learned so much about that area and experienced alot of different foods while there. I truely miss the people from there.

Alittle about me. I'm a SAHM. Most of my time here alone is spent playing euchre, canning, gardening, cooking (alot of OAMC), flipping thru my cook books (and i have plenty) and browsing thru Zaar! I just love it here. Trying to add alot of our family favorites.

I enjoy traveling, reading, camping, fishing, hunting, gardening, canning, bbq-ing, bon fires, entertaining, baking, playing board and card games with the kids, swimming, photography, and just being with family and friends.

How I rate:
Usually I wont give anything less than 3 stars. If its 3 stars usually its because our family just didnt like it. Not that there is anything wrong with the recipe.
4 stars and 5 stars are for recipes we like very much and will make again. I wont rate anything less because I dont want to discourage anyone from making the dish. Our tastes are very different from others and try to pick recipes accordingly.

Favorite Foods:

I cook alot of different dishes. I love food with "flavor". I'm known around here for my bbq brisket, broccoli chicken rice casserole, chicken enchalidas, pulled pork sandwhiches, strawberry raspberry rhurbarb pie, chocolate cheese cake to name a few.
