Welcome

 Hey y'all.
 Welcome to the delicious world of Lulabelle in the Low Country.  In this new blog, I'll be taking some great recipes, adding in some tips on entertaining, stirring in some fun, and wrapping it all up with a big dollop of sassy southernness. (OK, I've revealed a little too much about the real Lulabelle here)

It will either be a recipe for success or a recipe for disaster; who knows? but personally I hope you keep on coming back and checking on what's cookin' in the low country kitchen of Lulabelle.

Enjoy!
