Meet the Ladies
Hi! We’re Leigh and Anne! The Ladies behind “The Southern Lady Cooks.” This site originated in 2008 by our mother, Judy Yeager. Now, in 2022 it’s a full family affair. Our mission is to share southern recipes that are easy and delicious, along with down-home dishes your grandmother would have made.
Our award-winning southern website has been featured in Taste of the South, Southern Cast Iron, Tops In Lex, and Southernliving.com. We reach millions of viewers a month through our website, social media channels, newsletters, and our digital magazine, Front Porch Life. Her twin daughters, Anne and Leigh Walkup now run The Southern Lady Cooks full time. It’s a true family affair. You can read here to learn more about our story.
We are so grateful that we get to continue working with our mother everyday and she is still very much involved with all the cooking. She loves baking and makes so many of the wonderful recipes you see here today. We all cook together every week and it is time we absolutely cherish.

It’s been such a pleasure and we are so very blessed!
