Hi! I’m Felesha!
Tex-Mex foodie (married to a Southern Comfort foodie), praise & ballroom dancer and follower of JESUS! I enjoy traveling, decorating, dancing and well, the obvious, GOOD COMFORT FOOD! Some of my favorites include anything made with cheese or chocolate. I’m not that hard to please. Can you tell? I actually thought about naming this blog “Cheese & Chocolate”, but I digress.
Cooking and baking for family & friends, and especially for my wonderfully, supportive hubby, Willie brings me so much joy! How cute is he?!?! 🙂 His picky, country-boy palette pushes my cooking skills to new heights. As a matter of fact, nothing will ever appear on this blog without his stamp (“That’s great!”) of approval. Basically, I love creating his smiles (or anyone else’s in Southeastern Michigan, for that matter) with delicious, yummy food!
We have a precocious son and miracle named Jackson who is currently 4 and keeps us on our toes. He is such a bright spot in our lives and to God be the Glory for him.
I’ve spent the last thirteen years working as a sales rep in the healthcare industry where I am dedicated to helping the senior population live their best lives by staying strong and functional in their private homes. It’s so rewarding to see how your contribution helps to improve the quality of the lives around you.

Hi Denise!! Yes, my brother is wonderful and I love that he stands for righteousness. I’m so glad that you enjoy the blog and thanks a bunch for signing up for the newsletter! 🙂
Hi Felesha!
I would like to start by thanking you for all your wonderful recipes!!!
On you recipe for mixing the Lemon~ blueberry pancake batter together do you mix all ingredients together!?…you have the coconut oil and syrup included in the mix. Is the syrup included for sweetness!? Just asking because I want to try them tomorrow!
Thank you!
Hi Winnie!! So glad that you’re enjoying the blog. Yes, all of those ingredients are incorporated right into the batter. With my homemade pancake batter, I always add a little sugar for sweetness but since this is Paleo, I used maple syrup. Honey would work as well. Let me know how they turn out for you!! 🙂
Hi Felesha, I got ahold of your blog looking for Sweet Potatoe Pie Recipes and made your SP Cassarole for Thanksgiving that year and I will never make sweet potatoes any other way!!

Let me just say…he has been won back to the dressing side of Thanksgiving lol! Girl, I been trying to make a good dressing for years. Well it won’t be nothing if it ain’t your Mama’s recipe that’s all. Sister thank you so much for sharing your blessings with us! I love me some all of Jesus too! and so glad I found you 🙂 May the Lord continue to Bless and Keep you!
