My name is Dianne and I live in Austin, but hail from a tiny town in East Texas - Center, Texas. And no, it's not in the center of Texas, and nope, it's not actually Centerville, either. It's pronounced "sinner".
I grew up in a very food oriented family - we celebrated everything with food - death, life, A's on the report card...And it just so happens everyone in my family (well, my Daddy's side) are great cooks. Needless to say, we aren't the skinniest of folks. Growing up they were always trying to teach me to cook but as I hate being taught or told to do anything, I resisted learning and went off to college (Hook 'Em!) not knowing how to boil water. My folks, Mark (commonly refered to as "My Daddy") and Jane were big on taking me out to eat at all sorts of restaurants and letting me try whatever I wanted. While I was already greatly appreciative of yummy foods and was willing to try anything at least once, I sure didn't know how to do anything in the kitchen. My secret ambition in life was to become a housewive and I was pretty sure that all good housewives cooked, so once I was out on my own, I decided to try to learn.
I love Facebook. More importantly I love to check into bars (have I mentioned I like booze?) and restaurants. And post pictures of the food I'm either making (Southern is my fave) or eating. So, my good girlfriend, Elizabeth (EZ) decided I needed to blog. Here I am. I like to feed people, wear an apron and I'm a messy cook. Here is my attempt to show you my life with food. I'm always hungry. May I have a bite?
