Ease into the day with morning specialties like Gingerbread Waffles, Caramel Apple--Filled Crepes, or Breakfast Tortilla Roll Ups. Cooks will be delighted to find savory selections for weeknights as well as special occasions, including new twists on old standbys such as Blackberry Vinaigrette Salad, Buttermilk Chive Biscuits, Crispy Oven-Fried Chicken, Coffee-Pecan-Glazed Ham, or Crouton and Walnut Catfish.

Seasonal ingredients appear in innovative combinations in Vidalia Onion Finger Sandwiches, Shrimp Julep with Pear Salad, Honey-Baked Tomatoes, and Bison Tenderloin with Roasted Asparagus and Stone-Ground Cheese Grits. Indulge your sweet tooth with decadent desserts like Quick-and-Easy Blackberry Cobbler, Cream Cheese Pound Cake, Chocolate Cinnamon Pudding, Orange-Slice Cake, or Black Forest Fudge Trifle.

Introduction
Picture 7 It has been ten years since Kentuckys Best: Fifty Years of Great Recipes was published.

It is a collection of not only recipes that have been in my family for years, but also my favorite recipes from Kentucky chefs, restaurants, and bed and breakfasts, as well as those that are truly traditions in the Bluegrass State. For many years, I have dreamed of publishing a collection of the best recipes from my column, Kentucky Cooks. I receive so many requests for recipes featured in my column and have been asked by readers where they can find the best of Kentucky Living. One day while reading an e-mail from a reader requesting such a book, I decided that it was time to pull that title and make it a reality. Now my readers do not have to take the time to write and wait for a reply. The best of Kentucky Living is in this collection.

Im often asked about my job and the photos. Jim Battles is my photographer, and he not only does the food shots, but also takes photos on many topics for the magazine. He makes the food look so appetizing, and, surprisingly, there have been only a few mishaps. The most memorable was a beautiful scoop of ice cream melting under the lights. We plan our shots for the year and set up three or four months at a time, cooking the dishes in my home or Jims studio. Besides being a great photographer and a talented drummer, he loves to eat our food as much as I do.

We have to be Kentucky Livings official foodies. Many times, I have the good intention of sending his wife, Nancy, and his kids a dish we prepare, but Jim and I usually manage to polish it off. I consider us a great team, and we have a wonderful time. Rememberfirst and foremost, were foodies! Throughout the years, my work at Kentucky Living has been hard to think of as a job. While I love signing books, judging food events, giving cooking demonstrations, and receiving everything from food products, cookbooks, recipes, and cooking gadgets to proposals (really), I love interacting with my readers more than anything. I feel like I know them and enjoy answering their letters and e-mails.

One sweet lady has sent me an Easter card every year since I started to write my column in 1995. I often call a reader to ask her opinion about an upcoming column or to congratulate him on a food accomplishment. I enjoy working with Kentucky State Fair winners and finalists and hearing about all their food contributions. I open the Kentucky Living Web site to learn about great recipes, such as Sour Cream Pound Cake from Marilyn Gay and those from so many other talented Kentucky cooks who share their favorites each month. More than anything, I love to laugh and chat with my readers, knowing that Im in the company of the greatest cooks in the South: Kentucky cooks! Can you tell that Im proud of my magazine? Does this really sound like a job? Does it get any better than this? I dont think so! Kentucky Cooks

Appetizers, Savory Snacks, and Spreads

Appetizers, Savory Snacks, and Spreads
What she didnt realize was that she was wearing the evidence.Picture 9 Ive never met a boxer I didnt love, and my own three girlsnew baby Rox and Lola and Sophie (high-maintenance sisters and inseparable)provide me with all the love and amusement one person can handle. Although they are big-time foodies, I never give them treats except for an occasional ice chip.

I dont care to know what Nolle feeds them. Lola loves sweets and sticks of butter, while Sophie prefers finding medicine and eating Nolles expensive makeup. The fact that they have attended school regularly and do not beg at the table does little to prevent them from dreaming and sneaking around to look for their favorites. My cousin Kim comes from Florida every year the day after Christmas to celebrate the New Year with me. She loves to have a pot of my Bean Soup and my Coconut Cream Pie waiting when she gets here. On December 26, 2006, I was waiting when she called on her cell phone to tell me that she was getting off the interstate.
