Well, I'm from Baton Rouge, LA.........go Southern Jags, LSU Tigers and New Orleans Saints, Bay-Bey!!! I'm 28, an Aries ALL DAY and I love The Lord, My Family, food & music. Own my own music business with my Lil' Brother/roommate in Tallahassee, FL and you'll be hearing about it soon. Outside of music, I LOVE COOKING and EATING!!! I have a lot of other interests too but this is a cooking website, ya know. I've made alot of recipes from here and I must say this site is EXCELLENT!! Shout out to all the phenomenal cooks and chefs out there. Holla at me y'all and maybe we can get some jambalaya, red beans and rice or gumbo hooked up for ya. Laissez les bon temps roulez (Let the good times roll)!!! Anything that tastes good...............seriously!!! The holidays, of course. All the gumbo and etouffee....Turducken....you ain't had real Southern cooking 'till you come down to the Bayou, Bay-bey. My Grandmother, Mom and Dad are definitely the ones who influenced me. Everytime I use a recipe for the first time and it comes out tasting like somebody's Momma did it!!!! LOL, LOL!!! Burnt toast. That's probably bout it. Don't play when it comes to the kitchen, Man. Had some dishes that didn't taste the way I wanted them to but everyone else thought they were fantastic. Guess we're our own harshest critic, ha?
