I am a happily married mother of 2 teenagers, one girl and one boy. My family is the most important thing in the world to me. We all love to hang out, cook and watch LSU football! I'm from the deep south, so I love down home cooking, but I like to change it up a little. I'm absolutely a Food Network junkie so I'm constantly trying new recipes I get from there. I'm sure you can guess...Pat and Gina Neely and Paula Dean are my favorites. I saw Paula Dean during her tour in Bossier City. She is an amazing woman. Anyway, I love to cook and try new recipes. Any Southern Cuisine and Seafood:-) Fried Chicken or Pork Chops and all the fixings! It makes me feel great to cook anything for a group and they go on and on about how great it is. That's what it's all about! I think when I was about 13 or 14 and my best friend and I tried to cook fried chicken and mashed potatoes and gravy for some other friends. The mashed potatoes were thin like grazy and the gravy was thick like the mashed potatoes!
