I’m a husband, dad, cook; born and raised in South Louisiana, where I grow up watching my dad and grandfather cook for family gatherings, which in our case was often. My mom and grandmother did the “everyday” cooking with me under their feet always asking a million questions about what they were doing. Now as an adult, I do the “everyday cooking” for my family; in which my wife doesn’t mind one bit. It’s never a choir for me because I love being in the kitchen so much.
I also love collecting cook books. I have wonderful collection of South Louisiana cook books that I just love reading and taking ideas from to create my own dishes.
My hobbies (when I’m not at work as a project manager for a local construction company) are enjoying outings with my wife and daughter, cooking and motorcycle riding.
