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

Les's Seasoned Salt

I know I'm driving everyone crazy with all these seasoning blends, but some things just make life on my back porch a lot easier. I don't know who Les's is, and I've had this recipe so long they are probably dead anyway. Everyone has seasoned salt in their kitchen (Lawry's), why not make your own. It's cheaper and more flavorful and at least you know what's in it. After making one batch you will more than likely double it the next time.

Les's Seasoned Salt
2 tablespoons celery salt
2 tablespoons garlic salt
2 tablespoons onion salt
1-1/2 teaspoons paprika
1-1/4 teaspoons chili powder
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Combine all ingredients and sift together three or 4 times. Put in a jar with a tight lid, preferably one with inside shaker-top. Of course I use a Mason jar (8-ounce).
