Hi, I’m Martha. Welcome to my blog where I share with you Southern food, budget friendly meals, and places you should visit.

I grew up in the South just in view of the Blue Ridge Mountains. I wasn’t quite southern enough for some of my family members because I lacked the dialect, but I assure you, it makes an appearance whenever I’m relaxed or mad. As a teacher, it helps for me to pack away my accent especially since I teach English Language Arts and grammar.

From the time I was little, I loved being in the kitchen and helping my mother. Cooking and baking are my favorite things to do, and when I feel stressed I will often bake. However, family meals and food remind me of home. I hope to share with your some of my favorite meals and memories, plus a few tips and tricks I’ve learned along the way. I hope that you will join me in my journey to highlight all things Sweet, all things Sassy, and of course, it has to all be Southern.
