Cooking Through Magnolia Table In A Year: Week 2 Review

By

Two weeks in, the wonderful recipes just keep coming! This week of cooking through Magnolia Table Vol. 1 featured Joanna’s Perfect Roast Chicken (p.203), Mashed Potatoes (p.181) and Green Beans Amandine (p175) and each of them was wonderful. Much like last week, Joanna does not pair all these recipes together, although she does recommend pairing the Perfect Roast Chicken and the Mashed Potatoes (just with her brussel sprouts instead of green beans).  That being said, I thought that the Green Beans Amandine blended beautifully with the other items, so I would highly recommend making all three of these recipes…..

Receiving an average of 500 inches of snow per year, which lingers around for about 7 months, Jackson, Wyoming, and its surrounding area (known as Jackson Hole) is a perfect place to explore and enjoy a winter vacation. With such a snowy landscape, we found 10 amazing excursions to fully discover Jackson….

Three Great Adventures For A Day Trip To Asheville

By

Nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains, Asheville is a unique city offering a variety of excursions, activities, and adventures perfect for both a short-day trip, or an relaxing long weekend retreat. As Asheville is only a hop, skip and jump from the Upstate, Charlie and I have ventured into the Asheville area on a number of occasions looking for a new adventure. Despite scouring Google, we frequently had been unable to find local treasures to check out beyond the Biltmore, Blue Ridge Parkway and Pisgah National Forest. Each of these are wonderful (and I would recommend you check them out!), however were areas we had explored on previous trips, and therefore lead us to dig a little deeper into the local flair of…
