Welp...here it is! My venture into the blogging world! I have attempted to blog before, but I actually feel pretty passionate about this one, so I hope it sticks!
This blog will serve two purposes: eating and teaching...my two favorite things! I hope to share some of my cooking recipes and life recipes while sprinkling in some strategies I use for teaching and managing the classroom. I may even add in samples of my writing as well. I'm starting off easy today by explaining my cooking background, but stay tuned for more exciting things to come!
I have always been interested in cooking. I come from a solid line of good cooks. Not awesome, fancy dancy, chef-tastic cooks, but good cooks. The kind of cooks who can keep their men and coworkers happy by producing comforting staples. Nothing la-tee-da here. Just good.solid.cookin'
I have no formal training, just sweet direction from my mama and grandmas. I'm pretty savvy when it comes to reading recipes and making a dish my own, so I like to think I took my informal training to the next level. My mother believed that by teaching me the staples of cooking (browning meat, steaming veggies, chopping an onion) that I'd be able to fend for myself while simultaneously impressing the elusive creature dubbed man. I impressed one. I've been married for 8 months to my high school sweetheart, and he says I'm a good cook, so I guess that's somethin'.
Anyway, the bottom line is this: if you're looking for elaborate recipes this is not your blog. If you're looking for tasty recipes and random musings of an educator, then pull up a chair and tune in! My goal is to post every Wednesday...but let's not hold our breath. I'll post when I damn well feel like it which will probably be during the time of the night when husband is attached to Duck Dynasty and I'm beating back loads of laundry, two cats, and a dog.
Regards til next time!

 Apparently being muddy helped my case, too. |
