Hi, I'm Beckie. Being able to express my creativity is an important part of my life. I think that is the reason I love cooking so much. I believe cooking is a form of art. You have a blank canvas and can experiment with flavors to develop a recipe of your own, work with new flavors that will transport you to another country, or make a family favorite that will bring you back to your childhood sitting in your Grandmother’s kitchen.
This is my better half, Mark. He is my official "food tester" for my recipes…..I know it is a tough job. Mark is also a great cook and we make dinner together just about every night. It is my favorite time of the day to talk about each other’s days and spend time together in the kitchen without the distractions of the TV or cell phones.
I am a Mom to an adventurous, inquisitive and completely adorable beagle named Basil. He is a big ball of love and wants to always be right in the mix of things.
Ah…..that sweet face just melts me.
I have one sister, Kim, who is another “ginger”. I never liked being a redhead growing up, but, now I love it and definitely think it fits my personality.
I am blessed with a wonderful family. I have five nieces and two nephews that are a huge part of my life and will probably make an appearance from time to time because I love to make them special treats…almost always sweet. Hey, I am an Aunt - I get to spoil them! You will also see my parents and husband's family pop up from time to time.
I hope to share recipes I make for my family, while, trying new things along the way. Being a "Carolina Girl" I will also throw in some traditional Southern recipes as well. I am looking forward to this new culinary adventure and hope you can join me!
