Recipe for Country Ribs on the Grill!!!! Enjoy!

Made some yummy country ribs on the grill. Here’s the recipe taken from “Grilling ~ Where There’s Smoke There’s Flavor” by Eric Treuille & Birgit Erath. This is the Spiced Hoisin Ribs recipe found on pg. 48 and a favorite around our house in the summer. I also made some chili rubbed corn on the cob, which is seen behind the ribs in the picture and some baked potatoes not pictured. If you give the recipe a whirl, let me know what you think!

Ingredients:
4 lb pork spareribs or country style ribs
1/2 cup hoisin sauce
1/2 tsp chinese five-spice
4 crushed garlic cloves
2 Tbsp grated fresh ginger root
2 Tbsp medium dry sherry
1/4 cup soy sauce
2 Tbsp hot chinese sauce
1/2 cup brown sugar

Directions:
Separate ribs by slicing between the bone with a sharp knife. (I like country ribs because they’re boneless!!!!) Simmer ribs in large pan of salted water until just tender, about 30 minutes. Drain. Rinse under cold running water and drain again. Combine all other ingredients and brush mixture over the ribs. Grill over medium-hot coals, turning frequently and basting until brown and crusty, 15 min. ENJOY!

Happy 20th birthday to my sweet Lily Mae! 

Twenty years ago today, I had no idea how completely my world was about to change. I still remember all the little details - the morning walk, making homemade cinnamon bread, the doctor’s appointment that unexpectedly turned into a hospital stay, the movie we watched while we waited for your arrival, the sweet nurses and doctors that helped welcome you into the world (thank you Mike for the epidural)…and then the moment they placed you on my chest and we met for the very first time.

I could not have asked for a better daughter. I am so incredibly proud of the woman you have become and love watching you find your own way in this world. I cannot wait to see where life takes you next.

No matter how grown you are, you will always be my baby girl. Happy 20th, Lily Mae. You are my whole world. 🤍

Happy birthday to this sweet boy! 

It has been such an honor to photograph him throughout his little life - and especially special to spend the evening before his big day capturing this season with his family.

We chose a beautiful park with easy access and very little walking, yet plenty of gorgeous spots for portraits. Add in that golden evening light, and it truly felt like a little bit of magic. 

Wishing you the happiest birthday and a wonderful year ahead!

There’s something so timeless about a classic heirloom portrait. 

A customized heirloom session gives us more time to create a variety of images and allows you to choose from several backdrop options to best complement your style. 

For this Simplicity Session in my home studio, we used one of my hand-painted canvas backdrops for a soft, traditional look that feels beautifully timeless.

Simple clothing, sweet expressions and portraits made to be treasured for generations.

These sweet little expressions are so fleeting. The curious eyes, tiny smiles and all the personality that seems to change by the day. 

And when a little reassurance is needed, mom’s arms are always right there within reach.

One of the things I love most about baby portrait sessions in my  home studio - simple, timeless images that preserve exactly who they are in this moment.
