I'm a southern girl who loves to cook with a lot of butter, but am learning to enjoy new ingredients like red chilies and cilantro.
My favorite things to cook
Breakfast & Sweets.
My favorite family cooking traditions
My grandfather cans his own green beans every summer with a little bit of sugar. By Thanksgiving, the last few Mason Jars are broken out and every bite is savored.
My cooking triumphs
I (helped) make my first-ever batch of Tamales this Christmas. Now I know all the hard work that goes into them!
My cooking tragedies
Technically this may not be cooking - During high school I worked at Chick-Fil-A and accidentally put coleslaw mix into the ice cream maker. Needless to say there were a few complaints. I double check my ingredients more carefully now!
