THE SCOOP 207

THE SCOOP #207
Hi Friends! Welcome back to THE SCOOP. I hope all my East Coast friends are warm and safe and recovering from the snow. Here at StoneGable we got 27 inches of the fluffy white stuff. And that’s big for one snowfall… at least for us! It’s like a winter wonderland here. I love snow so much! We get every seasons here and I embrace them all. Well, I could live without the humidity of summer to be honest. I’m one of those rare people who really like winter. I love the “bones” of the trees and the frosty winter early mornings! Winter also brings a change in decor and food. I have some great winter recipes to share with you…
 
Did you see my MINI COOKBOOK OF SCRUMPTIOUS WINTER RECIPES? 10 sweet and savory recipes that are perfect for winter’s cold days and night! I bet there are some recipes you would love like this Perfect Pot Roast. Easy and delicious.

Hi friends!  I hope your time since our last party has gone well.  As I write this, we’re getting snow and ice here in central NC.  While I thinks it’s beautiful, I’m praying that we don’t experience a power outage.

Speaking of Old Man Winter, did you get a chance to peek at my winter fireplace yesterday?  I’m enjoying giving my fireplace a little breathing room after removing all of the Christmas decorations.

As part of our whole house remodel, we’ve completed the kitchen, breakfast area and laundry room.  I’m mostly finished in our family room, so look for that reveal soon!  Now I’m ready to move on to my dining room and have been gathering ideas.  I’m pretty sure that I want to add shiplap type planking to one wall in there, so I rounded up five of my dining room shiplap favorites.
