I have a pottery studio and am a professional potter. My family and I sell at shows around the southeast. I love to make the functional stoneware that I serve my dishes in. I love vegetables. We are exploring Tofu and other meat alternatives. I think soups are a perfect food. Everyone in my family loves eggs- anyway we can get them! My family comes from a mixed bag. I make Cuban Garbanzo Bean Soup, Frijoles Negroes, Pork Roast with Beer and Sauerkraut. And I also make excellant Boiled Peanuts!
