I grew up and live in the Northeast, but lived half my life in Texas. I learned about the "Northern" and Southern" way of cooking. I enjoy finding great recipes to make for my new family. I just reunited and married my high school sweetheart last year. We raise his two daughters. The younger one is a picky eater. I hope to find crowd pleasers (including her), and impress my soulmate, who loves good food, in the process.
