Goat’s Milk Soap is a Good Gift for all
ages and skin . I can say that many people with skin issues tend to like
to use our goat’s milk soaps because of what they offer the skin.
Between vitamin A and lactic acid, goat’s milk is the way to go.=D .

I may be obsessed with cheese (are you, too?), so the fact that we live near from
Whole Foods Market, North Raleigh
the most diversity cheese shop from France to Swiss , is fabulous and
a little dangerous. I love the Parmegiano Regiano , The Triangle’s
newest Whole Foods Market, which recently celebrated its first
anniversary, provides one of the best bets when it comes to cheese
buying in Raleigh. (and give samples!).

Softer cheeses work best with a butter knife. Harder cheeses, like Parmesan, are good with a triangle-shaped knife.

Choose a fun variety of cheeses: different textures, countries, and all

France.

My favorite recipe
Thanksgiving Recipe from Biltmore Estate:
George Vanderbilt’s Favorite Turkey and Cornbread Dressing
Ingredients:
- 20–25 pound turkey
- Cornbread, prepared
- 6 buttermilk biscuits, prepared
- 1 dozen eggs, hard-boiled
- 1 cup chopped onion
- 1 cup chopped celery
- 1/4 cup ground sage
- Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
Method
- Rinse turkey and rub with salt inside and out.
- Using a large boiler or cooker, place turkey in enough water to almost cover it (one gallon or more).
- Heat to boiling point and cook on medium for about 2 1/2 hours or
until breast is tender; use a ladle to baste broth over the breast meat
to keep it moist.
- For cornbread dressing: Bake a large pan of cornbread using your favorite cornbread recipe.
- Bake about six buttermilk biscuits using your favorite recipe, or purchase frozen biscuits and bake.
- Peel eggs and chop or grate them into large mixing bowl. Add onions,
celery, sage, salt and pepper. Crumble cornbread and biscuits into
bowl.
- When turkey is done, pour turkey broth over the cornbread dressing
until the desired consistency is reached. Mix well, using plenty of
broth so that dressing will be moist and soft when done.
- Place turkey in center of large baking pan. Spoon dressing into and
around turkey. Bake in 425ºF oven for about 45 minutes. If turkey browns
too soon, cover with aluminum foil.
- Serves eight to ten
The creator of this recipe, Ellen Davis, came to Biltimore House
from the community of Avery Creek in the spring of 1899 to work as a
cook for the Vanderbilt. She fell in love with Thomas H. Johnson, a
groomsman in the Stables, and they were married the following spring.
This recipe was a favorite of George and Edith Vanderbilt’s, and it
became a tradition for Ellen Johnson to prepare it for them each year.
