So I’ve been cooking since I was old enough to sit next to the stove and stir a pot for my mom. She taught me everything I know about cooking really. It wasn’t until I was much older that I learned to really enjoy cooking. It started when my son showed interested and real talent for it. He could taste a dish and tell you exactly what was missing before he was 10. No formal training here,  none for my mom either.

I grew up surrounded by a huge family and every occasion centered around food and as long as my dad’s mom wasn’t cooking,  it was damn good food too. Fish frys, crawfish/crab/shrimp boils, mother’s day, thanksgiving, easter, when you’re southern everything is about food. Not just southern either,  but Cajun on top of it.

I know this post is a little incoherent, I’m afraid its the best I can do right now, getting a little choked up… more to come later since this doesn’t really tell ya anything does it?  lol
