About 11 years ago my mothers mother, Nannymom, died. To this day I can't make her recipes, I have recreated a couple, but really I still can't make the favorites she made.. I can't make her biscuits, and I can't make her fried chicken (though my family says my chicken is better I still miss her biscuits) and being from the south and not being able to make biscuits from scratch is almost a sin.
So... instead of making my children wonder what the heck I put in certain dishes and in an effort to remember myself as I make new stuff or come across new interesting things on the web I am going to write about it.. I am going to include my ideas of what and why I do thing and maybe when my sons grow up they will have some idea or at least a start of why I did what I did and where to begin.
Why I cook, because I LOVE it. I adore food, I love the way when you combine ingredients that it can either make something that evokes so many feelings, how with food you can bring up memories, make someone just sit back and breath the aroma and maybe even crave having that food again.
Ok enough talk! Off to cooking!
