Simmer Down: For the Love of Valentine’s Day

This week on Simmer Down, it is all about what your man can cook for YOU (even if he doesn’t cook) for a romantic Valentine’s Dinner! What a candy heart necklace leads to and big lesson learned on not listening to your love. Enjoy listening along while Libbie and Brenda share memories of Valentines day past what’s so great about London and Martinique!

Bee Calm and Carry On

If you drive far enough away from civilization you come upon something that feels more authentically like life. It’s not a life with which I’m familiar, and yet the wide-open space, the simplicity of sprawling fields cut into perfect right angles, feels just right.

We descend upon the Lee Family Farm in Bulloch County at sunrise, the sleep still in the corners of our citified eyes as the bright sun cuts across the horizon. It’s eerie and beautiful—in the distance, a few workers dot the fields in meditative labor, looking like solitary statues emerging from a thick blanket of silencing fog.
