Calico Three Bean Salad

Three Bean Salad

Summer is the perfect time for potlucks, casual summer suppers, and dishes bursting with garden flavors. It’s also a time to savor memories of summers past. My favorite memories are of long summer nights chasing fireflies and running laps around my grandparent’s fenceless yard.

What’s your favorite food memory?

Meet Kristin

Welcome! I'm so glad you're here.

I'm on a mission to love my neighbors. I put an ordinary picnic table in my front yard, painted it turquoise and invited neighbors, friends, and even strangers to hang out and do life together at the Turquoise Table®.

I hope you'll join us!
