Favorite Foods

I love pecans, chocolate, fried okra, bourbon, oriental foods, boiled peanuts, any kind of cookie, cheese grits and ham, watermelon and fried chicken, Coke with peanuts in it, and really salty pork rinds. Anything with fresh ginger or fresh lemongrass. Fried green tomatoes. Peach cobbler with vanilla ice cream. Coconut pie. Lots of stuff. I like odd pickled things- watermelon rind, okra, green tomatoes, and chow chow in my butterbeans. I love it when DH cooks because he always makes grilled venison loin and mashed potatoes and they are the best anywhere.

I despise boiled cabbage, potted meat, boiled okra and pickled peaches. I can cook pretty fair country fried steak and sawmill gravy, but I don't like to eat it. Due to the smell while cooking, and because I know where they come from, I would not eat chitlins even on a double dog dare- chitterlings if you are into proper spelling.

As far as what I am known for, depends on who you ask. My dad says my mocha swirl creme brulee, DH says Carrot Cake, and Mama usually says Bourbon Pecan Shortbread or "that chocolate roulade thing you put fresh raspberries in". The kids say I make the best Potstickers and Beanie Weenie in the world.

I love to eat at the Waffle House- Hash browns, scattered, well done with a double side of bacon.

I like to try new dishes, my only wish would be someone to wash those dishes!
