I have been binge watching Man Vs. Child: Cooking showdown where these executive level chefs go against prodigies who are these kids between 7 and 15 and they literally beat these executive chefs who have been cooking for like 20 plus years.

Vegitarian/Vegan Charcuterie Board
I do not know why but I’ve been craving a charcuterie board but I also am trying to be more vegan, so I had a coworker make me a vegan plate once and it is so good but I also love cheese so I am giving some options on that as well. Working weddings I …

Southern Style Banana Pudding
My family is southern. My grandmother is from South Carolina, grandfather from North Carolina, the first recipe I learned how to make with my grandmother was her banana pudding. When I was super little my grandmother would make me my own bowl without baking it because I didn’t like cooked baked banana. Yes, enough talk …
