I worked for years as a writer, editor, commercial designer, etc. One day I decided to run off and open a donut shop, and that's just what I did: http://www.thedonutwhole.com Baked goods like breads, cakes, cookies, pecan pies, etc. Breakfast, especially omelettes...I never stop learning how to improve my omelettes. Fattening things. Grilled meats. Tasty stuff. My grandmother is my culinary touchstone. She's an old Okie from the Dust Bowl days and knows her way around a kitchen. Her recipe for "cowboy cookies" should be protected in the National Archives. The Texas sheet cake I made last night would make Jesus weep. , it's good. My rollos pollos with homemade salsa are pretty awesome, too. I once made gravy so thick and sticky that I had to throw away the bowl AND the spoon.
