My "back porch" is my kitchen, my favorite room in the house. Come on in, the coffee is fresh, and I just made a pitcher of sweet tea. The cookies will be out in a minute. I have over 40 years of recipes to share with you, along with my opinion on everything. Oh my, you are right, it is cocktail time. What can I get you? Of course I can make you a Mint Julep! Stop by anytime, something is always cooking, and the back door is never locked.

Bon Appetit, Y'all

Eggs with Anchovy

Get rid of that face! You will never know this has anchovies in it. I'm sitting here flipping through my Charleston Receipts Cook Book and happen to see this. I haven't made this in a hundred years, but remember how wonderful it is. This is perfect for any time of the day and any time of the year.
