Welcome!

Welcome to my blog!  I have grown up in a large family of southern cooks and can't wait to share all of our family recipes with all of you (along with some wonderful dishes I've found online and stolen from my awesome friends - shh!)  I LOVE to cook for my little family of four and anyone else who enters our home.  I don't claim to be a fancy chef (or a wonderful photographer - sorry!) but I believe in cooking good, simple food that uses common, easy ingredients.

I was raised with the thought that homemade gifts are the most genuine kind - and haven't received any complaints yet!  I have a passion for making things with my hands and I know some of those special gifts will make their way onto the blog in some way or fashion.

I have a wonderful husband who supports me 100% in all the crazy ideas I come up with and two precious children - Bowen (2) and Layton (7 months) who are the absolute "why" to my everything! I am a stay at home mom and thank the Lord each day for this wonderful blessing of spending each day with my kids and making our home a happy place.
