Gloria ‘Dumpy’?Lloyd of Vardaman says she just cooks “old fashioned.” Her grandmother, the late Wilker Gilder, taught her to cook and most days had teacakes for her after school. When Dumpy was old enough, she and her sister would have supper started when their mother got home from work. She would like to say she tries to cook healthy, but one of the first things she learned to cook was fried chicken, still a favorite of husband Jim’s (again, the old fashioned way–cutting up her own chicken.)
