In the past few years, I've really gotten into cooking more. I' came to realize that I really missed the comfort food of my youth. My mother was from Charleston SC and was a great cook. When I and my 3 sibs were young, we had a housekeeper who was an incredible southern cook as well. Unfortunately, both of these wonderful women have passed on. But they left me lots of very old cook books from various southern women's groups. I truly enjoy sharing these classic southern dishes with my own family. Some of their favorites are my fried chicken, collards, black eyed peas, cornbread and gumbo
