Hi, I'm Josie! I am a 28 year old stay at home mom, and I live in the suburbs of Atlanta with my husband Joey and our daughter Caroline. I obviously love cooking, but I also enjoy reading, running, learning about beer and wine, and Georgia Tech sports.
I have a degree in Chemistry, so the science behind cooking has always been a huge interest to me. As a result, I am enamored with Alton Brown and Cook's Illustrated/America's Test Kitchens. I love knowing the chemistry and logic behind recipes.
One of my goals is to cook as seasonally as possible, so don't expect to find tomato recipes in January, or pumpkin recipes in July. I love to cook simple foods with quality ingredients, and I draw inspiration from many sources: family recipes, cooking magazines, favorite restaurants, other food blogs, and some of my favorite chefs.
I started this blog in June of 2009 as a way to share my love and passion of cooking. I feel that even in the short time I have been blogging, I have already expanded my culinary repertoire, and I look forward to continuing to learn and grow as a home cook.

I'm sure you've seen that I've made so much of what you post, and I will continue to do so. You really do make everything that my husband and I like just before we know it's something we would love! Haha! Just wanted to say that we love your food! :)

Hi!
I recently found your blog, too. I started blogging last year and have really come to love seasonal cooking, too. Can't wait to keep reading!
Josie - My wife sent me a recipe from your blog (Pimiento Cheese Fritters), and I was checking the address of Relish. Saw it was Roswell, and then thought I could recommend another great Atlanta culinary retreat...a little place up on North Avenue...maybe you know of it...The Varsity! Hands down the gold-standard for onion rings.
Go Jackets!

I love Alton Brown too; the science-y stuff of baking and cooking is really awesome. I really want to get my hands on a copy of Modernist Cuisine, but unfortunately, I don't have a spare $600 lying around...
Lovely blog, Josie! Hope that you continue to share your culinary treats!!! Loved the recipes!
Love your recipes and have tried many of them. I wish you had a print feature for your recipes to make it easier and use less paper.
Love your blog!!! You have some great recipes on here. I don't love the chemistry of cooking, but I am always interested in what Alton Brown has to say. But mostly I love that you perfect something then put it up for us to try!!!
I also stumbled onto your website while lookimg for photos of Savannah, Georgia. I'm a Southern California girl and love your recipes! Your recipes are yummy and feminine for any party. You have a beautiful family~
Thank you for sharing~
