An Introduction to My Blog

As an introduction to my new cooking blog let me say first that I am NOT a chef.  I am not trained, I have not studied, and do not claim to be the worlds best cook.  I am however, a very GOOD cook and I learned my art from the master...my Mammaw!  For anyone who knew Dorothy Davis, you know that she cooked with love and took pride in every dish she presented.  Some meals of mine could have come straight from her table!  And some of them...I've developed myself using every bit of cuisine magic taught at her apron.  

I want this blog to be fun and full of a love of cooking.  I can't promise to have nutritional information for you, although if I have it...I do promise to share it.  I'm always open to suggestions...but prefer to stay away from critiques.  You either like the food...or you don't.  And you don't have to cook like I do...but please feel free to try it if you choose.  

I have a husband, a teenager, three preschoolers, and my mother living under one roof.  So with seven mouths to feed, I have to get creative.  It's not easy finding meals that don't take hours to make, and that the majority of family members will eat.  And I'm still learning!  I love to experiment, but some weeks...I stick to some old-faithfuls. I told my nephew once "I cook this food because I love you!  And I want you to enjoy what I've cooked."  He now eats everything I fix for him at my home...because he understands why I've made it.  It's that simple.  

In the first few weeks I'll talk mostly about those old faithfuls.  And then we can experiment together! If you have questions or ideas...I'm all ears!  

Let's get cooking!
