Carrabba's Bread Dipping Oil

I was looking for an appetizer recipe the other day and came across this one. It really brought back so many memories of all the dozens of loaves of bread I ate at Carrabba's because their dipping oil is so good. It's been many years since Carrabba's closed on Hilton Head Island. I thought you may want a little memory refresher with this delicious and easy dip. 

Ingredients:

  • 1 tsp crushed red pepper 
  • 1 tsp ground black pepper
  • 1 tsp dried oregano
  • 1 tsp dried rosemary

  • 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil 

Directions:

  1. Mix all ingredients (except…

There is nothing we love more in the winter than a toasty, crackling fire but our warm weather, flip-flop wearing paradise does not always cooperate. Icy weather is headed our way in the next couple of days, and we are gearing up for some firey evenings. In fact, we just had wood delivered today from Carolina Morning Firewood so we will be ready. We don’t get to use our fireplace as much as our cold weathered neighbors so when we do, it's a real treat. No fireplace? No problemo! Turns out you don’t have to have a hearth in your home to get that hygge feeling we all crave. We have some options for you that can give you that same ambiance without an actual fireplace.

Scent options are endless and there are even some with a…

The first thing that ran through my mind when I saw the inside of this house was the song lyrics, "I can see clearly now the rain has gone." I mean....look at those windows! Everything sparkles in the sunlight.

What else:

  • first floor master is a game changer
  • over 3,100 SF with 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms
  • a gigantic bonus room
  • the kitchen is so soft and yet bold
  • a fantastic outdoor living area
  • and the kicker...it's in Mill Creek at Cypress Ridge which has awesome amenities 

I can tell you that this home won't last long. We better head over quick.

After the past few years of climbing home prices—and a pandemic that made even spacious homes feel cramped—you’d be forgiven for fantasizing about moving your brood into a big country house.

One way to make it happen? A barndominium is what you get when you convert an old barn into a luxurious condominium-style abode. (You can also build your own from scratch.)

We’ve been just as curious as you are about these nontraditional country homes. So we talked to folks who have lived in (or sold) these unique homes. Here are the main pros and cons for all would-be barndominium dwellers.

Pro No. 1: Rural lifestyle

All the barndominium owners we spoke to echoed a similar line of thought: Living in one is a great option if you’re looking for a…

Savannah Christmas Market

I really love going to Savannah, but I must admit, sometimes it seems like it's too far. I know, I know...it takes barely any time at all to get there. The crazy thing is, every time I go, I think - that was great and I need to go more often. Well, Christmas-time in downtown Savannah does not disappoint. It is so festive with all the lights, decorations, activities...all of it. 

I went this weekend, and the holiday energy was electric. Spend an afternoon around Plant Riverside and you're sure to see Santa and to find some unique gifts. City Market is a quick step from there and they too have live music, gifts, and great food. We then took a stroll around some of the squares where lots of the homes are beautifully decorated.…
