I am a transplanted Texan. I have lived in different states as my father was in the service but basically grew up in Louisiana. So, I classify myself as a Texan, Cajun and Greek with all different taste in food. I've been married to my wonderful husband for 21 years and for many of those years he did most of the cooking with me doing the Holiday meals. We moved so I'm now only 4 minutes from work and I have much more time to experiment in the kitchen. My son and husband like to give their opinions on my attempts at new dishes.
