By Kelly Bogard Sometimes, inspiration strikes at the strangest times. As I was preparing my grocery list this week, my wonderful mother-in-law stopped by with a box of very fresh, very ripe peaches. She had been to the local farmers' market, and they gave her an amazing deal on the whole box because they were [...]
By Kelly Bogard I'm sure you have noticed me writing about my adventures in motherhood here on Texas Table Top. I absolutely love being a mom to my three-year-old and teaching her about food and cooking. This week, I brought her into the kitchen with me to cook. Did we have a good time! My [...]
By Kelly Bogard I look forward to the Easter holiday every year. It is kind of like Christmas in spring. Spending time with family and remembering the true meaning of the day are very important to me.

By Amanda Hill Thanksgiving represents just how blessed we are here in the United States. Think about it. We all—regardless of religious, political or fiscal beliefs—stop everything for one day to gather with family and friends to enjoy a meal together, laugh and watch football. (This is Texas, y’all.) It’s one of my favorite holidays. [...]
By Kelly Bogard Do you have any special Halloween memories from growing up? For me, I'll always remember Trick-or-Treating at our neighbor's house down the street. He worked for Coca-Cola, and each year he gave us a full-sized candy bar and a can of Coke. It was way better than just a fun-sized piece of ordinary candy. Another thing that [...]
