Bread & Butter Pickles

Cool as a Cucumber Bread and Butter pickles are my favorite summer flavor. I’m addicted. If you’re lucky enough to have cucumbers growing in your garden you probably share the feeling. I don’t have a garden, but we are regular members of Johnson’s Backyard Garden CSA. On Tuesdays a big box of fresh picked produce arrives on our doorstep. Right…

Simple Mushroom and Gruyere Tart

Two things I love — simple and yummy. This mushroom and gruyere tart recipe is easy-peasy to make, serves an army, and re-heats well for leftovers. Mostly importantly? My people love them.

Baked Artichoke Nibbles

Just a little nibble. I need a little something for my mouth. My mother and I can justify almost anything… especially late afternoon. Or with a glass of wine. One day, many moons ago, we were sight-seeing in Paris. We weaved in and out winding, narrow streets in Montmartre and up the funicular to Sacré-Cœur. Across from the famous basilica…

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!
