A native Texan, but no cowboy boots here! I love rock, the Blues and ridin' a Harley. Guess it's the hippie in me! I love baking, but also like to dabble around in cooking-especially Tex Mex and grilling. Paula Deen,Lucinda Scala Quinn, and Ree Drummond are my mentors for keeping food on the table for my family. I love collecting cookbooks and finding recipes on my favorite blog sites online. My Pinterest page has a great board called Kitchen Magic where I stash all the advice I find online about kitchen everything. I luckily found Seasoned Advise when looking for info on soaking these chia seed things people are raging about, to add to a smoothie recipe I have that needs a thickener. I'm really excited about sharing and finding advise-especially for the kitchen blunders that always seem to happen to me!

Keep Calm and Keep Cookin'!
