I come from a large family and have 5 kids and 5 grandkids all who love to EAT. What better way to stay on their good side then to love to COOK! Paula Dean is one of my heros..."FAT = FLAVOR" Sorry all you health fanatics! Nothing brings a family together like a YUMMY meal. I love to try out new recipes but I adore a good casserole with tons of ingrediants, lots of gooey cheese and something crunchy on top! Anything that can be done in a crock pot served with warm homemade bread! Teaching all my girls how to properly prepare a traditional Thanksgiving meal and seeing the YUCKY looks on their faces as they deal with the inside of a turkey for the first time! A PERFECT prime rib!!! Hmmmmmmm...their is ALWAYS someone who will eat ANYTHING!
