Welcome to {eat.drink.be very merry}

Hello there!  Welcome to {eat.drink.be very merry} - my new food blog including posts about foods I eat, recipes I try, recipes that are my own and everything else pertaining to food.  My husband, Kyle, and I are self proclaimed foodies, although in the REAL world of foodies, we are probably low on the totem pole!  We love trying new foods and drinks - if you grew up in either of our families, this alone qualifies you as a foodie!  We both grew up in South Texas and enjoy the local flavors and cook with them often.  We are also in love with the foods of Louisiana, maybe I am more than Kyle, but our last two vacations have taken us to New Orleans, and not because we didn't have other options!

We both love to cook and create food in the kitchen.  We regularly have themed meal Saturdays - and the theme could be from a craving or based on something we've recently watched or an upcoming event.  Two years ago we created our first ever Thanksgiving meal for us and some friends and this last year we cooked Thanksgiving dinner for my family.  After seeing "The Help" for the second time, I had an insane craving for good ol' southern food so we made fried chicken, fried okra, greens, mac & cheese, mashed potatoes, rolls and buttermilk pie.  We also regularly have snack days where we make lots of appetizers.

I'm not sure what will come of this blog, but I plan to use it well and hope to use it often.  Hope you enjoy!!
