blackberry farm cookbook night

We celebrated such a gorgeous cookbook at our last dinner group - The Blackberry Farm Cookbook. My sweet pea of a best friend gave it to me for my birthday this year. I page through it over and over, thinking of the many meals I'd like to try. Even if you aren't an adventurous cook, take a peek at it for the beautiful destination it is.






If I ever pass through Tennesse (which really isn't very likely), this is definitely on my to do list.

We went with one of the fall menus:

Coffee-rubbed duck breasts

Roasted pecan brussel sprouts

Wild rice

Squash gratin
Apple stack cake

What a meal! It went perfectly with the weather and even though I overcooked the duck breast just a bit, it was still out of this world!

Check out Martha's beautiful cake!
