Eat. Drink. Live.
A nature preserve with a historic home — plus walking trails and roving peacocks. A lovely spot for an afternoon with the cousins. Cousins in an arch. And on a walk. And when we came back, we were treated to […]
We lunched at adorable cafe-bakery-coffee-craft beer combo, complete with a beer garden and games, like foozball and Uno. Hello, cousins! Fabulous bratwurst with homemade sauerkraut. Delicious. Sam had — wait for it — a pretzel. At least she was finally […]
Before heading out to lunch with Sarah and the girls, Sam takes a plunge in the pool. And, upon return, a pretty sunset.
SCF fans may remember our trip to Franklin Barbecue back in 2010. Well that little barbecue trailer has become the most popular barbecue restaurant in Austin, which is to say it is some of the most popular barbecue in the country. […]
On Saturday night, the adults got some of their own fun time. First, we headed to supper at La Condesa, a new-ish modern Mexican restaurant downtown. Wow. Was that food amazing.
This time, Reece got a turn to play, too.
Jessica and Kelly hosted the whole family for dinner on Friday night, including Sarah and Mae and Jane, and Kelly’s brother and sister-in-law Brady and Karen and their two girls. You might say it was a family reunion of sorts.

Since leaving baseball, Kelly has started his own building company, Kelly Wunsch Homes. On Friday, we went on a tour of the job site of his latest project. We were hoping to see the concrete slab get poured, but the threat of […]
Mojitos, a grill, a fire and family. What more could you ask for?
Sarah and the girls and I headed to Frank, the artisan hot dog place in Austin, for lunch on Thursday. All in all, good food. But something about the atmosphere was a little annoying. For one thing, it was super-loud. […]
SCF fans, we’ve been on the road. We caught a 7 a.m. flight out of Newark. Read and slept on the plane. Sarah picked us up at the airport. After we got to meet the lovely and talented Jane Addison […]
Next stop on the Austin visit — Jessica and Kelly’s house. We settled in and caught up briefly, and then headed out to Fischer’s baseball game.
My husband, Greg, and I are co-founders of SCF, which chronicles what we eat, drink and grow as we raise our daughter on a tiny plot of land in the Lower Hudson Valley.
