I'm a small town Southern girl living in Wasilla, AK. (Yes, the home of Sarah Palin- no questions, please!) I love to sing, read, write, play with my daughter, spend time with my husband, and hang out with friends. I love trying new things...that's why I'm a member on here! Looking to expand my cooking skills, I try to find recipes that will challenge me and taste really good! Every major holiday was a reason to get everybody in my family together! My mama's potato salad (God rest her) was the best! My grandma's cornbread (God rest her, too) was sooo good! I finally made my first batch of rolled cookies! It wasn't easy...I had a couple of attempt and fails, but I stuck with it and finally made some! Despite the fact that I'm Southern, I've never been able to make good fried chicken...pretty sad, I know, but it's the truth.
