Our recent Outdoor Cabin Projects included a front walkway and stairs on the back side of the cabin. In the backyard, there is a deep downward slope where the backyard begins; it’s dangerous to walk down. We had some stairs and a handrail put in to help with moving around and mowing back there. JNA Construction in Tennessee did the work, and they are amazing!  We are having another walkway…

Steve and I went to the local Tellico Plains Amish Farmers’ Market today. Look what I came back with, jackpot! Watch for my next dish, which will feature some of these ingredients.

Slow-roasting and reverse-searing a beef tenderloin is my preferred method for cooking this cut of meat.  Recently, I saw two ends of a beef tenderloin at the grocery store.

I made this using the extra blackberry syrup from my Wild Blackberry Galette, the extra butter lettuce from my Shrimp Salad, and frozen…

When I found this home it had everything, my husband wanted. Mountains, a private lake, waterfalls, caves, and trails. For myself, I wanted a new kitchen. Because it is an open kitchen floor plan I wanted to make changes in the…

My Pork Wellington and how this dish came to be. You’re not going to believe this, but I was in the kitchen and heard that commercial about the three “P’s.” You know the one, right? It’s the one for life insurance. I’m always thinking about what I’m going to make for dinner.  I know I had two pork tenderloins, Prosciutto, and a couple of rolled puff pastry sheets in the refrigerator. I was…
