Yogurt Tarragon Grilled Chicken

Today’s recipe is a perfect example of mistakes made better!  Maybe not so perfect as the one where the guy inadvertently dipped a piece of chocolate into peanut butter and gave us Reese’s, but it is a good lesson in kitchen improvisation. And, I’m sharing this one with you because, well, it worked. I was chatting with Sam the Butcher…

Overnight Oatmeal

  I don’t know about you, but breakfast isn’t always our most important meal of the day.  Trying to feed four, sleepy Littles breakfast at 6:30 am before they rush out the door to school puts a damper on the whole make-breakfast-the-most-important-meal-of-the-day theory.  I’ve been thinking a lot about the foods we are eating and how I can do a…

Roasted Butternut Squash Salad

I found this recipe in a Costco magazine I received during the holidays.  I’ve made the salad two or three times and it is a keeper.  It can stand alone as a meal, or add your favorite protein.  I’ve served the salad different ways and can’t decide if I like it better with grilled salmon or shrimp.  Try it and…

Curried Chicken Salad

Since I broke in my new ovens and cooktop on such haute cuisine, I thought it was time to kick it up a notch and try some healthier fare at the Schell Cafe. What do you eat for lunch?  Seriously, I’d love to know.  It could be an overlooked meal for me as my default mode is to skip it…

Kids’ Cook: French Toast

What’s not to love about breakfast for dinner?!?!  It’s a winner at The Schell Cafe for sure.  And French toast is at the top of the littles’ favorite breakfasts, er dinners. Our cooking frenzy began tonight with the kids wondering if French toast was from France?  Yes.  And no.  In France, French toast is called pain perdu which literally means…

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!
