Hey there everybody…(Hello Dr. Nick! [anybody?]) as many of you guys know we love food, I mean we really LOVE food. Not just eating it but cooking it, creating new recipes, sharing recipes and the thrill you get when your creating food. It’s that love for food that has lead us to undertake this new interesting adventure. Since we had gathered quiet a following of admirers of our cooking via pictures on Facebook. We decided to take our love for food and share it with all of ya’ll (yes we are Texans!) but not only that, we want you guys to come join us on this project as well and we want to hear your feed back, your suggestions, and your hints and tricks. We would especially like some feed back from our fellow wine-o’s (we say that in a nice way) on food pairing, and awesome wines to try. Beer-o’s too!
“Every artist was first an amateur.” -Ralph Waldo Emerson
We have an extensive collection of cookbooks, magazines, and online reference materials to choose from not to mention hours of watching TV food shows for our inspiration and instruction. Bare with us as we may make mistakes or not know the “proper” procedures to follow, but that’s where we as a online community can help each other out.
We love trying out new restaurants in our area or when we go on trips. We will posting our opinions of what we tried at these locations. That being said we would love to hear from anyone when they have suggestions regarding where to eat, what to try, or anything that may further this experience, as time allows we will try what we can and let you know what we thought too!
When we cook we will usually be using items that are obtainable locally so you don’t have to search the ends of the world to find an ingredient and if there are specific spices and such that we use we will tell you the specific brands and usually where to get them from if you wanted to.
There is ONE RULE we follow and would like every one to follow as well... JUST HAVE FUN WITH IT!
As said in the cartoon “Chowder” on the cartoon network:

Disclaimer:
While we do have some history in the kitchen and an above average collection of kitchen gadgets, neither of us have had any formal training from a culinary academy. (yet!)
Our drive comes from a pure and simple enjoyment of cooking, entertaining, and trying out new things.
While you take this journey with us through the culinary world keep in mind that some of the dishes we prepare may be new to us also but we will always include comments and suggestions as we see necessary to make the dish the best it can be in our opinion.
Also keep in mind our tastes run a little spicy, but don’t let that scare you since we have found that most spicy recipes tend to be on the non-spicy level when they are first made, and we will always tell you when we are adding more than the recommended chilies to give it that special bump in an attempt to keep your mouth from catching ablaze.
As with any opinionated forum our tastes may differ from yours. We welcome and appreciate any suggestions that you may wish to share with us and our followers that will enhance everyone’s food experience to include your own opinions of what we may have suggested or made. Please keep the comments “G” rated or you will be deleted since we are trying to keep this a “family oriented” and fun site to visit.
Great job!! I look forward to reading and trying your suggestions!
