Bon Appetite, Y'all!

So cooking, at least for the last several years, has been one of my favorite hobbies. It is such a great feeling to plan a meal in detail, select all the perfect items for the menu, create the dish, and watch others enjoy something you've spent time making. Almost as a way to stave off homesickness, I find myself more and more preparing traditional southern cuisine for meals while down under, despite ingredient and utensil obstacles I have encountered along the way. I have had several requests for recipes, and decided creating a blog would be an easy way to get the info out there, also while chronicling the cooking. I will include conversions for the Aussies (as best I can, southern cooking is definitely not an exact science), as well as what is traditional ingredients versus Aussie substitutes I have had to make. I hope you enjoy!
