Born in the deep south and raised on good ole southern home cookin' - I've grown to love cooking all types of food and enjoy trying new recipes. I now live in Arizona with hubby. My two sons are attending college and enjoy learning to cook from their mom. They are very good guinea pigs! I'm a substitute teacher at the elementary level and love working with children - they are our future.
