I am a secretary. 28 married F. I really enjoy to cook. Fried chicken, country fried steak, meatloaf,spaghetti, fried pork chops, basically anything homemade or at the very least semi-homemade. Use the real things, not substitutions I make my own everything, nothing out of a box or jar My husband and anyone else that eats my food loves it. My dad told me years ago that I should be a cook. That is actually my dream, to have my own restaurant. Paula Dean is my inspiration because she started out as the Bag Lady and now has her own restaurant in Savannah. I don't really have a tragedy. When stuff does not go right, it frustrates me and I have not mastered gravy. I can make gravy turn out right once in a blue moon, my husband usually makes the gravy and I do the spiceing.
