I am a simple country girl from Kentucky, who likes to do anything that's fun and don't land me in jail. Since high school I have been on the move with my husband, moving state to state and country to country. I have been lucky enough to be able to travel alot and experience different foods and cultures. I am a full time military wife, full time student, and part time nut. I now live in Hawaii with my husband and 2 golden retrievers. Life is good! I love to cook anything! I am from the south so the normal southern food is my love but, I love to cook me some Mexican food. My mother was a single mom of 2 and always worked. Although she was a great cook she never really had the time to be in the kitchen alot. So most of my cooking is self taught. The only traditions we really have is my moms famous breakfast on Christmas morning. Every year she makes everyone a breakfast casserole and monkey bread. She even if us kids can't come home. I catch myself making the same thing every year that I am apart from my family. Every new recipe I make that turns out well is a triumph for me :)
