We are on day 6 with the 5 kids, and I can’t believe how smoothly it is going. Don’t get me wrong, I am exhausted, but so far, they are all alive, do not seem sleep deprived or malnourished and in general are pretty happy. I could totally handle this every day- no, no I […]

Tomorrow morning our good friends and neighbors are heading out of town for 11 days. Last week their babysitter had to cancel, so we are going to take their 4 children while they are gone. I love these kids- ages 3,5,9 and 11 (and of course add Walker in who is 10). They are exceptionally […]
Great New Cookbook- 25 Quick & Easy Gluten Free Desserts
Posted in Breads, Breakfast, Cooking, Desserts, Dinner, Fun on Feb 11th, 2014
I feel very fortunate to be able to eat wheat or flour or whatever it is that causes people Celiac disease, and I have not had much experience with eating or cooking gluten free. However, after spending some time with friends who suffer from Celiac disease, I thought I should add some gluten free recipes […]
As this is a baking blog, I am not sure if I have mentioned my preferences in alcohol. I like beer. Light beer. Ultra light beer. That’s about it. I will occasionally drink red wine and perhaps a glass of champagne, but I have never enjoyed liquor. I, of course, tried shots of liquor in […]

I am so so so excited for Callie’s Biscuits and Southern Traditions cookbook to come out on October 15th.

I am also […]
We spent a glorious day on Saturday with friends on a dock. The light at the end of the day was so beautiful, and watching Walker and his friend jumping in the water and swimming, it really was a golden afternoon. It reminded me of a soup I had a while ago called Golden Cream […]
We are taking a house party up to Linville in about a month, and I am so excited for it that I have already started planning the menu. I was going to the traditional spaghetti sauce, homemade bread and salad for dinner one night because it is what we always have for house parties in […]
A new Italian restaurant opened in Charleston a couple of months ago, and I had dinner there yet again last night, and again, it was fabulous! I was there with some girhttp://thesouthwillrise.com/wp-admin/post-new.phplfriends, and we started out with the butter bean puree, Castelvetrano olives and the 24-month aged American Iberico prosciutto. All of it was amazing- […]
Does anything say summer more than sweet corn? And a fresh corn salad is about the best thing in the world. It is a touch warm up in Twilight this week, but that means it has gotten above 80, so really it is not warm at all, it is perfect. We have done some amazing […]
We have been up in Twilight for just over a week now, and I could not be more relaxed. It is heaven up here except I don’t think my waist line would be expanding this much in heaven, but other than that, it is pretty perfect. We have had a great time hiking and swimming, […]
