Good Morning Darlings!
The weather here is unbelievably gorgeous. It feels like the tropics.
What else feels like the tropics?

Monday night, Eric and I went to the Best of Atlanta, as the guests of my darling friend, Kathy, the Marketing Director for Camp Twin Lakes .
So much fun inside!

Last Thursday Clint & I played hooky together. Clint planned an entire day of surprises that just delighted me to no end.
What did we do on our play day?

What shall I pack?

This month our Cookbookery Club chose The Southern Foodways Alliance Community Cookbook . It included recipes for all things southern and delicious.
It was more like Thanksgiving than a Saturday night

The ultimate Atlanta menu—under one roof. What? My beloved southern home all under one roof? What does that even mean?
Oh boy, are you in for a treat!

Did you guess? What is this thing?
It’s an Asparagus Peeler!
This utensil not only peels the asparagus for even cooking, but it also snips the tough ends. Did we mention you can also use it for green beans and sugar snap peas? Progressive International Asparagus Peeler, $5, Amazon.com
This would make a fun hostess gift. And for $5, you could stock up!
xoxo, Patti
