Lazy Mornings


A long night of catering a gorgeous wedding followed by a simple morning of waking up slowly, making baked eggs with thyme, rosemary and tomatoes from the garden, bloody Mary's (Which I haven't taken to yet) and a swim in the pond with the most beautiful babies was such perfection!

Pan Seared Goodness

We've been craving scallops in my house the past few days, so when the sign went up for a sale on sea scallops yesterday, dinner was set. Seared in coconut oil and served with roasted potatoes, asparagus, carrots and beets was colorful and delicious!

Mussels!

A warm day on the island and a good bargain on mussels was the perfect combination to make mussels in a white wine sauce (and an excuse to sip on some white wine while I cooked)! Steamed with garlic, shallots, tomatoes, thyme and sage was delicious!

Southern Twang

Inspired by looking at the State Road restaurant menu and the hot last-day-of-June weather, I made shrimp and grits last night.. seasoned with thyme and rosemary from the garden.. yum!
