Healthy Green Smoothie Recipes

Husband bought a juicer. He’s like a kid in the candy store, except in this particular store the candy is of the kale, cucumber, beets, and parsley variety. Every morning I watch him carefully concoct a rich blend of color and nutrients into a tall glass of juicy perfection. I haven’t tackled the juicer yet, but so far Husband has…

Top 3 Favorite Smoothies

I’m pretty sure the world does not need another smoothie recipe. But, I’m in a smoothie-state-of-mind and thought I would share the love. I’m just back from a brutal stint at the gym where my trainer and I discussed smoothies in between breaths – mine, naturally, not hers. I offered numerous times to actually stop what we were doing (lunges…

Tuaca – An Italian New Year’s Eve Drink

  Now here’s something you won’t catch me saying very often. “GET THEE TO A LIQUOR STORE!” Probably should explain myself, huh? For fourteen December-thirty-firsts, Husband and I have celebrated the gift of marriage. New Year’s Eve is a spectacular evening on which to be married. Unless you are the wedding planner and Mia who had to work doubly hard…

What’s in the smoothie?

I make smoothie’s all the time for a quick breakfast for the Littles. Today I was very, very sneaky… Can you guess what’s in the smoothie? A full serving of broccoli. Yep, blended unnoticed right into a healthy glass of deliciousness. I passed off smaller cups to the unsuspecting troops, and savored this tall glass of goodness all for myself….

Lemons

Sometimes life gives you lemons. And sometimes a surprise comes with your lemons. A month or so ago I picked up a bag of lemons, probably at Costco or HEB. Tucked in the Sunkist sack was a robinet pour citron. Fancy, huh? This tiny yellow faucet easily twists into the stem end of a lemon and with a squeeze you…

Basil Lemonade

Yesterday Littlest and I made Basil Lemon Simple Syrup. As soon as her feet hit the ground this morning she was begging for Basil Lemonade. What could I say? After all, she deserved to taste the fruit of her labor. We squeezed (and squeezed) lemons, added our delicious syrup, and in no time at all we were savoring fresh lemonade….

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!

Have you ever had pashka? A sweet friend from chur Have you ever had pashka? A sweet friend from church — who I haven’t seen in person in ONE solid year— just delivered this traditional Russian dessert. She said she hasn’t hosted a gathering in so long she decided to pull out all her heart molds and make a favorite dessert to surprise her friends.

What a special way to offer hospitality during Covid. I feel sooooo loved and my family will go nuts! 

Now I’m thinking of what I miss making for guests that I can whip up and deliver this weekend. 🚐💌

Inauguration January 20, 1993. 🇺🇸 I was a br Inauguration January 20, 1993. 🇺🇸 I was a bright-eyed, young Hill staffer, full of enthusiasm for politics, our government, and America. I actually thought I’d be a senator or maybe even President one day. 🤪

I’m more realistic, reserved and battle weary thirty years later. But, I still believe in a place called hope.
