Hello

Hello and Welcome to The Peppered Hearth!  Just a few rules before we get too far.  First of all keep all comments courteous and respectful.  Every one is entitled to their opinion and you don’t have to agree but don’t be nasty either.  This is supposed to be fun.  As for the recipes I may include, “likes” are subjective.  You don’t like the same things as everyone else but hopefully you will find some recipes you will enjoy.  The same goes for the wines I write about.  I have found that the price tag on a bottle of wine doesn’t necessarily mean it is a good wine.  Some of my favorites are relatively inexpensive.  I will share photos, when possible, of everything from foods I make to quilts, wines and my garden.   So with that being said, once again welcome to The Peppered Hearth.  Buckle up and I hope you enjoy the ride!!
