Susan LaBorde

Susan LaBorde is creator of TheHealthyKitchenShop.com and HappyBeachcomber.com. She is a lifelong resident of Louisiana, the state known for its fabulously diverse and delicious cuisine. Her cooking experience ranges from daily family meals to holiday feasts to fundraiser dinners serving hundreds.

Her southern fried roots made her very skeptical about frying with air, but she was in for a shock. To her delight she learned that air fryers offer a great new way to eat healthier without sacrificing taste.

The drawback she found was that it's an unfamiliar cooking method to most people, and they don't realize how versatile these appliances can be. Eager to solve that problem, she teamed up with her dear friend and phenomenal cook Elizabeth Hickman. Together they created The Air Fryer Bible, the most comprehensive air fryer cookbook on the market, complete with beautiful color photos and a full index.

Susan's other site, HappyBeachcomber.com, grew out of her love for the Emerald Coast. She has been in love with the beach since she was a child and wanted to share her knowledge and experiences for others to discover and enjoy the beach. Her little travel blog includes loads of information about the northern Florida and Alabama Gulf Coast, answers to all the questions you and your kids have about the beach and ocean, plus beach stories, quotes, photos, and travel tips. If you love the beach you'll enjoy this site. If you've never been to the beach you'll discover a myriad of reasons to give it a try.
