I am Jenny. I am married to a great guy and have two fantastic kids. Bubba is almost 11 and loves reading, lacrosse and XBox. Boo Boo is 6 and loves to play outside and craft. We have 2 dogs, an English Bulldog named Rosie and a French Bulldog named Rhett. I teach Human Geography and European History at a local high school and we own a family BBQ restaurant in a large city several miles from where we live. We lead a very simple life, enjoying our family and friends on our back porch.


I have 2 blogs that showcase the two hobbies I love the most - reading and cooking.

  20. Hi Jenny! I'm stopping by from the UBP.

    I also love my southern kitchen. It's amazing what goodness comes from a warm, loving kitchen isn't it?

    We also have an English Bulldog. He's 5 and hilarious. I've wanted a French Bulldog, but we have a tiny teacup poodle instead. A bulldog and a poodle - funny!
