Well I was born a Yankee, but that was a mistake. I am all Southern Gal at heart and everything that exemplifies. I can and do cook just about anything. However, I love those deep down south comfort foods and desserts. They are my passion. I do try to lighten them when possible, so my family will eat healthier then the generations of the past. Everything we do is around food. I BBQ. My husband may not touch my grill. It is like my stove, off limits unless it is a special romantic occasion he has concocted. There have been many, but my most remaralbe was my 1st Thanksgiving Turkey. I forgot to brown the turkey 1st, covered it in cornbread dressing. The result was a very wet dressing and a turkey that did not looked cooked.
