Lessons Learned at the Chef’s Table — Pastaria and Hog & Hominy

Have you ever sat at the chef’s table at a restaurant? You know, either a table in or bar that allows you access to the kitchen.

Well, I could try to make this point about a first-time experience that would make it sound really good for my 30 days of thanks series — yesterday was the first time I missed the personal goal of posting daily this month, but really, that would be a lame post!

I Think These Girls Love Cotton Too!

Some of you know my dear friend Marjory and some of you may even remember photos I shared of her & her girls when they came to St. Louis to spend spring break with me. Well in the past week, Marjory has posted two really cute photos that I asked if I could make my wordless Wednesday. She said yes!… Read More
