When I work on invitations for a couple it’s usually chit chatting through email, and then I box up their invitations and send them on their way. If we are connected on social media I’ll get a few sneak peeks through instagram or twitter, but many times they are never to be seen again. It [...]

Our fridge is a bit embarrassing, and I really wish someone would come over and clean it for me, but until then I thought I would try to make it smell a little better. I found this tip over on Gardenista, and whipped it up last night. I happened to have some dried rosemary around, [...]

Confession. I snipped this rosemary from the neighbor’s yard, but he has a massive plant with plenty to spare. Rosemary is one of my favorite herbs in the kitchen, and I especially love it in cocktails with vodka or gin. This recipe is easy so give it a try! * Muddle rosemary, lemon and local [...]

POPCORN | HONEY | GIN FIZZ | MARTINI This week I have four picks featuring one of my favorite herbs. Rosemary pairs so well with red meat, pork or shrimp, and I love using it in cocktails too. Tonight we are having friends over, and I’m going to take a stab at the [...]

Did you know we have wineries in North Georgia? I didn’t realize this until we went on a group hike in Helen that was followed by a little wine tour. Some of the wines were better than others, we had a nice view, and its a relaxing getaway close to home. After quite a few [...]

I came across Mexican Eggs in Purgatory in the latest issue of Food and Wine magazine, and just so happened to have most of the ingredients on hand. I followed the basic directions, only as usual I didn’t really measure anything, and instead went with a handful or a splash. My blended mix was maybe [...]
