I have seen lots of pictures on Facebook of friends with their children picking apples and enjoying the crisp fall weather. While we don’t really have apple picking down here as such, I do love living vicariously through my friends that live further north. Fortunately, my yahoo.com home page seems to read my mind occasionally, […]

This just might be heaven. This recipe popped up on my yahoo.com home page, and this might be the perfect adult Halloween treat. I would definitely be in an apple bobbing contest for these- so fun. Red Wine Caramel Apples Ingredients: 8 small McIntosh apples, stemmed, washed well, and dried 1 1/2 cups red wine […]
This past Saturday, I got to go to an amazing event called Cook It Raw. Here is the description from the web site. “Cook It Raw BBQ Perspectives will feature more than 40 local and internationally acclaimed chefs preparing their interpretation of Lowcountry BBQ. This event will be a celebration of all things BBQ with […]
Even though it was a short week, I am so glad it is Friday. We don’t have much planned for this weekend other than some school projects due next week and of course Walker’s football game bright and early on Saturday morning. I was trying to think what would be a good breakfast for him […]
We just spent a wonderful long weekend up in Western North Carolina with friends, and the leaves could not have been better. We sat by the fire, we hiked, and we ate a ton. I hated for it to end. Here is a picture from on of our hikes from the top of Hawksbill. The […]

I am also […]
Walker spent four days out at Camp St. Christopher on Seabrook Island with his grade- 75 10 year olds. I don’t think you could have paid me to be a chaperone for that field trip. They had a ball playing in the mud pit and learning more about the lowcountry natural life. They had to […]
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 […]
It is one of the all time great debates- how to make the perfect Bloody Mary. Of course, this is all dependent on people’s tastes etc, but what I think makes the perfect Bloody Mary for me is what leads up to drinking it. This past weekend we went to visit my sister in New […]
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 […]
