    When I was a firefighter/paramedic over in West St. Augustine (King Street Elite!), we were invited to a HUGE family reunion over at the park across the street from the firehouse.
    Big Mama Sparrow made the Potato Salad and the Mac and Cheese and a Peach Cobbler that I swear to God above was so good, I’d be proud to get the Diabetes that comes after eating that good for years on end. My daddy was a country boy and he raised me on proper cooking. I thought… That party was almost 12 years ago and I still think about that day every time I drive by Calvin Peete Park. Loved me that entire neighborhood.

    Wow! My mother-in-law was a magnificent Southern cook! Everything she made was heavenly and she did it with ease. All I could remember about her mac and cheese was that she used eggs in the recipe...and most recipes I searched for did not use eggs. Oh, how I wish I had paid attention to how she did things, but I was young and had no interest then. And then I find your recipe! YES! I love all the tips also! And a pan that doesn't need clean up afterwards! Yes to that too.
    Thank you so much. I shall make it as soon as possible. Soul Food Sunday needs to stay...have a wonderful day!

First of all, you not only make the most delicious looking food I've seen, you have the greatest personality and you're so cute and sweet and I really enjoyed watching you. In fact I'm watching you want you on my TV as we speak as well as listening to my phone for your Mac and cheese recipe. I am not a very good cook and I'll just be honest. I'm 47 and was a vegetarian most of my life. My mouth is watering as I watch all your wonderful food and I'm going to surprise him with this Mac and cheese. Thank you so much for your videos. I'm going to binge watch them until thanksgiving. Much love.
