If you are new to my blog, "Welcome!" I have been blogging 5 days a week for 6 years about the beauty of everyday life. I write about how visual images, tasty treats and simple storytelling can enhance the human experience.
The impact of flowers; the joy of friendship; the satisfaction of
collecting – these ideas are the foundation of my first book, "Moments of Delight" and my blog. Explore the sidebar to see posts by month and my City Series.
This is to catch you up on my recent Beekman adventures. Remember my visit to Sharon Springs and their Beekman 1802 mercantile? And my tour of the farm? It was a wonderful trip and I am so happy that we had a chance to visit again so soon.
Dan and I drove to Lansing on Sunday to and support Josh and Brent on their cookbook tour. I finally have a copy of their long-anticipated desserts cookbook and I got to spend some quality time with my friends. I was so happy that Tracy was able to make it to the book signing from Grand Rapids. If only Kerry could have come up from Tennessee! Next time! The four of us haven't been in the same place in 20 years.
The Beekman 1802 Heirloom Desserts cookbook is just beautiful - perfect to display on the cookbook stand in your kitchen. I can't wait to make the Roasted Caramel Pears and the Lemon Lavender Squares. Yum! The bonus of this great day was that I was able to meet some of Josh and Brent's other friends and realize how much we all have in common. Like baking...

That wonderful day in Lansing will go down in history as one of my all time favorite days. Not only did I get to see my friends again, but I met so many new and wonderful people.. and as for YOU.. at long last, we met in person. I'm so glad you're baking along with "Bake Like a Beekman." I'm very anxious to see the creations! Be well, my friend!
Thanks, Kenn! I feel very lucky when I meet a kindred spirit. I predict that we will be friends for a very long time.
