A collection of recipes from my Romance books in the Texas Code Series and Texas Holiday Series.

I write Contemporary and Historical Romance and Romantic Suspense. In addition to the trials and tribulations of cooking my way through the family recipe box, my characters also know their way around the kitchen. I hope you find humor, love and an occasional recipe that you just can't resist.

Getting Started - Introduction and Dedication

I've been told that everybody and their brother does a cooking blog. Yes, that's probably true. It's also true I have so much on my plate right now I hardly have time to turn around. But, when my daughter told me she was going to cook and bake her way through her grandmother's recipe box, I thought it might be the time to put the recipes and stories of the women in our family in print.

My daughter and I have talked for quite some time about putting the family's favorite recipes together in book form, but it's never come to fruition. Getting everyone together in one place is sort of like herding cats; they seem to scatter in all directions!

So, I'm going to start putting stories on this blog to introduce you to good recipes and to the ladies who wrote them and passed them down. I hope you'll find the posts interesting and come to love our ladies as much as we do.

Dedicated to: Granny Pike, CarCarr, Mammy, Missy, Aunt Carrie, Aunt Barbara, Meme, and Ginny. We love and miss you!
