Well Grandpa, you have out-done yourself in my book! I have been making my Grandmas' mac and cheese for years now..But alas! I have retired that. Yours is at the top of my list from now on.( Sorry Grandma. I still love you.) The only thing I did was make it out of cheddar cheese. No Velveta where I live. Thanks gramps..

I'm a southern cook living in LA, that's Los Angeles, not Louisiana, unfortunately.
Don't know how I developed a love for southern cooking, but since nobody around these parts does it right, I had to learn authentic southern cooking techniques on my own.
