This weekend, we are celebrating Sierra's 30th birthday with a a few days away in the country.  The plan is to cook lots of big meals and to sit by the fire, wearing big sweaters and reading good books.  Here's what I'm thinking… I am a longtime follower of Mimi Thorrison's blog 'Manger' and think […]
