Quick and Easy Collards for People Who Don't Like Collards
"I was never raised to eat collards. I just tried them for the first time a year or so ago and didn't like them. But funny things happen when people give you collards for free. And, I must say, when cooked well, they are pretty good."

<p><img src="http://s220.photobucket.com/albums/dd64/RansomedbyFire/th_us2.jpg" alt="" /> <br /> <br />I'm a Christian and am very happily married. I love to cook and aspire to do it well. <br /> <br />I've only been cooking for a few years now, but there are already quite a few people whom I have surpassed. Interestingly enough, I tell people it's not necessarily that I'm a good cook per se, just that I know how to pick the right recipes. This is why I stick around here. :) <br /> <br />I am a recent college graduate with a finance degree. I currently work as an Excel VBA programmer. When I graduated from college, I had no idea this is where my career path would lead; but I think it's kind of fitting and a bit funny since I originally planned to major in computer science. Now, I get to use them both!</p>
