BigMamasKitchen

Introduction

Welcome to the Kitchen!! Big Mama is strong, bold, loves cute things (such as her cat, Katchup), and cultivates the most flavorful dishes for her consumers. After a few minutes in her kitchen your taste buds are sure to be left tingling. She will throw in a wide variety of flavors from spicy to sweet, from tangy to salty, and will always finish a job with a sassy wink. Better get your plates ready, are you ready for a taste?

This language is for people who love to cook as it uses cooking/baking phrases. BigMamasKitchen serves to spice up statically typed/scoped languages.
