Alabama

The Yellowhammer State is a Deep South state situated along the Gulf of Mexico between Mississippi and Georgia. It is sometimes called “the Heart of Dixie.” The stars of Southern cooking shine on Alabama. Ribs, sweet potato pie, fried chicken, fried green tomatoes, catfish, hush puppies, sweet tea, fried pies, pralines, oysters, shrimp, and chicken and dumplings are just a sampling of the down-home cooking you’ll find in the Heart of Dixie. The pecan is the official nut of Alabama. The blackberry is the official fruit, but the peach also receives recognition as the official “tree fruit.” Honey is a big product. Alabama ranks second in the nation in farmed catfish production. But the largemouth bass is the state’s official fresh-water fish.

About me: I am a sophomore at Auburn University- War Eagle!!! I am a Dietetics/Nutrition major and I love it!! I cannot live without my 6am workouts with my best friends, Smoothie King, coffee, my scrapbook, cooking (of course), Jeff (the love of my life!), and my wonderful family. I am your typical college student loving these last few years of daddy's money :) When I graduate, I want to write for a health magazine, get my Masters in Nutrition and hopefully a journalism degree and continue with magazine writing as well as a nutrition consultant and maybe some cooking classes, then ultimately a mommy!
