Moist cornmeal muffins flavored with … [Read more...] about Pimento Cheese and Country Ham Corn Muffins

I love a good honey-glazed, spiral sliced ham, but I rarely get to enjoy one, because they are just so darn big.  But my parents received a whole ham as a gift, and as my mother defines eternity as two people and a ham, we served it for Thanksgiving.  I managed to get away with most of the still-copious leftovers and went to work on recipe ideas (and enjoyed a number … [Read more...] about Mustardy Ham and Noodle Casserole

I'm P.C. I think I am like most people. Somewhere in the middle between food snob and food schlub. Just being in the kitchen makes me happy. I live, mostly in my kitchen, in my hometown of Memphis, Tennessee.
