About this Cook
I am a student and waitress. I learned how to cook at a young age because my mother does not cook. I love the planning and preparation and I love to watch the food network...especially Paula Dean. I tend to work for local restaurants where I can learn new recipes or places that have homemade fresh food. I am a tweaker...I generally find a few recipes and combine to get what I want. I eventually want to pursue wedding planning.
My favorite things to cook
Anything that requires a lot of chopping. I find it therapeutic. I love being alone in the afternoon, listening to music and cooking.
My favorite family cooking traditions
I love to make all of our Southern favorites. Savannah Style Potato salad, deviled eggs, banana pudding, casseroles during the colder months.
My cooking triumphs
Perfect guacamole, she-crab soup and killer chicken enchildas!
My cooking tragedies
A cherry cake that completely broke apart...it looked horrible. I once tried a spanakopita recipe that was just not good.

Crabbies
Family favorite! We actually use shrimp and call these 'Shrimpies'--this recipe is the closest I could find to re-create my step-mom's recipe. They are VERY good with shrimp. I use two cans of tiny shrimp--sounds gross, I know. I also add fresh garlic(1 clove) and a little bit of parmesan for a little "ooh la lah" I would definately never use anything other than old english or real english muffins(don't get store brand they just aren't as good). It makes tons of shrimpies and its really hard not to stop eating them!

Pork Chops with Fresh Tomato, Onion, Garlic, and Feta
so delicious and very hard to mess up! you will definitely want to use extra sauce and go a little crazy with the balsamic. the tangier the better!

Antipasto Pasta Salad
I can't tell you how many times I have made this salad. Its one of those things that you can add or subtract things too. I tend to use larger cuts of cheese and more balsamic. It makes a ton, so make sure you are cooking for a crowd! The only downfall is that the pasta turns brown after a day because of the balsamic..but its even better!
