Summer

I'm a Southern girl who loves food and books. I'm working on getting back to my artistic roots through food, photography and anything else that drives me and makes me feel connected to my true-self.

I've loved food for as long as I can remember. As a kid I used to watch cooking shows; first with my Dad and then later on my own. That was before the days of Food Network, The Cooking Channel and so on. It was all on PBS. I grew up with Martin Yan, Justin Wilson, Jeff Smith and (of course) Julia Child. I used to narrate my own cooking show when I would cook. So it's not suprizing that a lot of people thought I'd go to cooking school. I didn't. And I'm glad for that in a way. But I never lost my love of food and cooking. If anything it has grown into a passion. And so, I've decided to embark upon my own self-created journey.
