Welcome to Fork and Soul!

Hey there, fellow food lovers! I’m so glad you’ve found your way to my little corner of the food world

Born and raised in the heart of the South, I grew up in a kitchen where the sweet aroma of buttermilk biscuits and the gentle bubbling of Sunday gravy were the soundtrack to my childhood. My grandmother’s cast iron skillet and my mother’s handwritten recipe cards taught me that the best meals aren’t just about feeding the body – they’re about nourishing the soul and bringing folks together around the table.

Here, you’ll find recipes that celebrate the beauty of simple, wholesome ingredients. I believe in cooking and baking with intention, using fresh herbs from my garden, seasonal produce from our local farmers’ market, and ingredients you can actually pronounce. There’s something magical about supporting the hands that grow our food and knowing the story behind what graces our plates.

Whether I’m sharing my mother’s secret to the fluffiest cornbread, experimenting with a farmers’ market haul, or putting a fresh spin on beloved southern classics, every recipe comes from a place of love and respect for tradition. I hope these dishes find their way into your kitchen and create the same warmth and joy they’ve brought to mine.

Pull up a chair, pour yourself some sweet tea or in my case chamomile tea, and let’s cook up something beautiful together.

With love from my kitchen to yours!
