My big fat Southern Idea

As a food lover, I wanted to be able to share my passion of food with others. After watching "Julie and Julia" and being able to relate to the both of them, I realized that I would write my very own food blog. Only mine would be devoted more to the history and culture of Southern food. However, I do not only cook Southern foods. I love Paula Deen and the Neely's, but I do not want to consume a pound of butter per day. So, my blog will take the fatty, butter-covered Southern foods that we all love and try to transform them into more healthier foods for today's society. With that being said, I will cheat from time to time. I am Southern after all!!
I hope you all enjoy my blog.
