What to do in a heat wave?

Posted in Cooking, Desserts, Fun on Jul 19th, 2013

The entire East Coast seems to be in a massive heat wave, and Twilight is no exception.  Clearly it is not as bad up here as it is in New York City where the temperature is currently 99 degrees with a “real feel” of 107.  That is not a lot of fun.  So, we have […]

Sweet Corn

Posted in Cooking, Dinner, Fun on Jul 15th, 2013

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 […]

More Porch Life

Posted in Cooking, Dinner, Fun on Jul 8th, 2013

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, […]

Ahhh…Porch Life

Posted in Cooking, Fun on Jun 30th, 2013

We arrived in the Catskills on Friday night after a very long 14 hour drive.  My wonderful husband drove the whole way.  We got up to Twilight just in time for the Friday night drop in dinner at the club house which was a welcome treat.  After a quick bite and hello to old friends […]

When I moved back to Charleston after two years in the Catskills, I was hanging out with a group of people one night, and a friend of a friend asked from where had I just moved back.  Assuming that most people in South Carolina are not familiar with the tiny towns in the Catskill mountains, […]

Maple Bacon and a 4th of July Parade

Posted in Breakfast, Cooking, Fun on Jul 5th, 2012

We had some friends up to visit us in the Catskills last weekend with their three boys.  It was so great to see them, and I think they enjoyed escaping the heat that was attacking the rest of the country.  Our friends had never spent much time in the Catskills, and I think we made converts […]

More from the Mountains: Bear Claws

Posted in Breads, Breakfast, Cooking, Desserts on Jun 29th, 2012

This is my 11 year old Springer Spaniel, Nemo (named before the fish).  As you can see, he is a ferocious beast.   Despite the fact that he still looks like a puppy, he is getting old.  His hips are going, and he sleeps most of the time.  However, this morning, he recaptured some of his […]

Recipes from the Mountains

Posted in Cooking, Dinner on Jun 25th, 2012

We arrived in the Catskill Mountains on Saturday to the most beautiful blue skies and 75 degree temperature.  The weekend was spectacular, and I woke up this morning to rain and 55 degrees, and that does not upset me at all.  I got a fire going and turned on Wimbledon, and I think this might […]
