One part opportunity, one part spontaneity, whip vigorously
This was my first trip in, I don’t-know-how-long, that I didn’t bring my computer. For almost a solid four days I was computer free. I must say it was pretty amazing. I also bought a ticket, so no standby traveling for me this time, which was also pretty amazing. This Thanksgiving we went to New…
With the change of seasons I’ve started to crave pasta and warm foods. Check out my last column’s recipe for a classic spaghetti and meatballs but with flavors that wow. Follow me on Twitter @Pilots_Daughter. Photo courtesy of John Tagle
You may not live in South Carolina, or even be from there, but you will definitely appreciate their hot dogs. What makes a carolina dog special? The blue cheese coleslaw of course. Learn more about it in my column this week. Follow me on Twitter @Pilots_Daughter

Simple cut corn tortillas into quarters, spray with Pam olive oil then salt them and bake at 350. Cook first…
Farmers market season is in full bloom. I’ve been to a few farmers markets before but apparently not the cool ones because I have never seen zucchini blossoms for sale until last week. It was like Christmas morning when I saw them. After I bought them I was so overwhelmed with planning the meal that…
