I'm originally from Tennessee but moved to Louisiana when I married my husband. In addition to cooking I enjoy making quilts, sewing, reading, and gardening. I have an immense collection of cookbooks but find the majority of my recipes online. I like it that they are rated. I am the mother of three children. My son is now with the Lord. My two girls are grown and married. My youngest has two young children.
