Introduction

I like eating; I like talking about food. Rachel Ray is a “cooker”, I’m an “eater”. I think that is my biggest reason for creating a food blog. I will probably dicuss food in and around Morgantown, WV, but if I take a trip, long or short, I will talk about whatever food, wherever I have eaten.


You might want to know why you should give any credence to my opinion about food. Maybe you shouldn’t. I grew up in Parkersburg, my parents and my sisters were and are excellent cooks. After being a picky eater for several years, (for example, I would eat vegetable soup with a fork to avoid putting anything foul in my mouth by accident) I eventually learned most food is absolutely delicious and I love to try new things and go new places to find out what’s on the menu.

In my blog I plan to review restaurants, be they homey, fancy, pretentious, fast food, chains, family style, buffets, you name it. Also, if myself, my daughter and son-in-law, or anyone else I know prepares something out of the ordinary, throws a tailgate party, has a cook-out, I might brag about that also.

Another thing you might want to keep in mind when you read these entries is that I am a regular, everyday kind of a girl. I have no credentials other than liking to eat. I’m probably exactly the kind of person who might come to Morgantown (if I didn’t already live here) for a ball game, or to take their student to a special dinner, go out on a date, have a special family get-together and is wondering “where should we eat”?

I start the Culinary Arts Program at Fairmont State University in the fall, so maybe I’ll recount some adventures from my classes.

I hope my endeavor proves to be informative and entertaining.

Oh, and I don’t drink, so regarding booze, you are on your own!
