Welcome 2013!

Thanks so much to all of y'all - those who have just found my little corner of the web and those who have been here from the beginning. I enjoy hearing from you in the comments here and the emails you send to me.

When I started this site, I could count the southern recipe blogs on one hand. Today there are hundreds of us, from home cooks like me, some quite ambitious to win you over from the rest, to magazine, television, celebrity and corporate websites, and personal blogs authored by professionally trained chefs.

I am grateful and humbled that you choose Deep South Dish as one of your many sources when looking for southern recipes and I look forward to sharing even more recipes in this brand new year.

LOVE & HUGS,
   ~Mary

Lord, make me an instrument of your peace:

where there is hatred, let me sow love;

where there is injury, pardon;

where there is doubt, faith;

where there is despair, hope;

where there is darkness, light;

where there is sadness, joy.

O divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek

to be consoled as to console,

to be understood as to understand,

to be loved as to love.

For it is in giving that we receive,

it is in pardoning that we are pardoned,

it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.

~Attributed to St. Francis of Assisi
