This holiday season may look a little different, but I’ve been finding ways to carve out new traditions and ignite the peace and joy that this season is about. One of those new traditions for me is finding magic in the Sullivan Catskills of New York at Peace, Love & Lights— the winter holiday light show at Bethel Woods being presented by the Sullivan Catskills Visitors Association. Peace, Love & […]
Last year, I went to Northwest Arkansas to present as a chef in the Fayetteville Roots Festival. It was a really special experience because I taught a VIP women-only butchering and cooking class as part of my time there and got to meet women who had driven from all over to be there. We made this chicken tagine recipe from the chickens that we butchered and then sat down for […]

The thing about loquats is that you need to pick them in that pivotal moment before they drop but after they have sweetened enough.

I just finished an Adventure Getaway in Texas with a big group of wonderful women from all over the map. We had been sold out for 6 months and I had a long waiting list of women wanting to attend. I don’t like leaving people out so I have planned another one for this coming February… can you guess what we’ll be doing? Better grab your spot fast. Details here. […]
