Meet Sunshine Malone

Growing up in Mobile Al, I can remember spending summers in the rural town of Grove Hill Al and cooking with grandmother and aunts.  My favorite memory was making peanut butter cake from scratch.  This was my favorite recipe. 

I began cooking full course meals and baking from scratch by the age of 12.  Because both of my parents worked shift work, I was required to prepare meals for the family.

Tragedy struck in 1986 with the sudden death of my mother.  She was only 39 and one of the best cooks and example of a woman I had known.  After her passing, I became the planner and cook for my dad and brother.

Creative, innovative, daring and delicious are words used by family and friends to describe me and my cooking.  My family says I will try anything once and then will try to perfect it if I don’t like it. I have a passion for cooking and baking. Some of my favorites are baked and roasted chicken, shrimp ettouffe, gumbo, crab cakes, and homemade desserts.

I am currently completing my degree in Business administration while working a full time job.  In addition to that I am actively involved in my church as a greeter, mentor of young ladies, and leader of the care ministry.  Most importantly, I am a passionate lover of Jesus Christ, dedicated wife and mother of four daughters, whom I love beyond measure. They challenge me to come up with new and delicious meals for them.

I began blogging because of lifestyle and health challenges and it was a requirement in our Social Media class.  I now have the new challenge of creating quick and healthy meals to accommodate my busy schedule, and blogging has become a tool to help keep me accountable.

Come join me on the journey!
