Sierra’s Favorite Cucumber Soup

We spent the most wonderful weekend up on Lake Summit with a bunch of great friends before we picked Walker up from camp.  I can’t believe three weeks’ sleep-away camp has already come and gone.  Lake Summit was like a camp for adults, which is my favorite kind of place.  We sat on the boathouse […]

New Mom Meals

My dear friend Kendall is having a baby today, maybe even as I write this.  It was scheduled which is how I know it could be happening right now.  I am currently hanging out with her first son Kevin before I take him to camp, and then I will pick him up this afternoon and […]

Brownie Dessert

Pinterest always makes me hungry.  I love looking at the wonderful food photography, and all of the recipes are great.  I did read a really funny quote from DJ Joe Kelly about all of the food photography that is constantly on Facebook and Pinterest.  He said: “Remember the old days…when you used to have dinner…then […]

Sour Cream and Chives Biscuits

I do love a good biscuit- piping hot and steamy.  It can be the perfect breakfast- you really don’t need much else.  Fortunately, my wonderful husband makes amazing biscuits- not nearly as often as I would like, but when he decides to make biscuits, they are a work of art.  We are heading up to […]

So Many Cravings

It has been an eventful week in our house with Walker out of school.  I took him fishing with a friend on Tuesday where he caught one red fish, two blue fish, two baby sharks, six big sharks and the biggest stingray I have ever seen.  Needless to say we did not swim in the […]

Frozen Strawberry Daiquiris

Tomorrow is Walker’s last day of 4th grade.  He keeps saying he can’t believe how quickly the year went by. I can’t believe how quickly the year went by.  The years somehow keep getting faster.  Fortunately, while summer does seem to disappear on me too quickly as well, I am looking forward to enjoying the […]

Delicious Cream Puffs

Happy Memorial Day!  We spent a wonderful weekend out on boats and at the beach.  The weather could not have been more perfect, and I am now convinced that every tourist who is currently in Charleston wants to move here, so I should probably get my real estate license as opposed to my continuous attempts […]

Beignets and a Fun Wedding

We went to a friend’s wedding in Wilmington, NC this past weekend.  I have never been to Wilmington, and it was awesome!  We got into town on Thursday and walked down to a restaurant on the river.  The city is so beautiful and strolling along the streets, the historic homes were so much fun to […]

Berry Breakfast Cobbler

Walker and I have a morning routine that really never varies during the school week- I guess that is why they call it a routine.  I wake Walker up at 7- we get dressed, and he goes downstairs to fix breakfast while I make the beds.  Corby on the other hand, usually gets up around […]

Glazed Lemon Bread

Now that it is finally getting warm out and hopefully staying that way, there is nothing more refreshing on a hot day than the taste of lemon.  For some reason to me, the taste of lemon always seems cool.  This is a great recipe for a glazed lemon bread which is really a dessert, but […]
