Looking for a horse treat recipe to celebrate your horse? Make my Horse Treat Plate! You didn’t think I’d leave Wendy out of the fun at my Brunch at the Barn, did you? I styled a variety of horse treats to look like a cheese plate and my Friesian LOVED IT. She gobbled it up!…

Celebrating Twenty Years with Prince
It was a blazing hot summer day when I first saw him. He looked so fiery: red coat, nostrils flaring as he tossed his head around, shaking his mane. He was the most beautiful thing I’d ever seen. “What horse is this? Can I ride him?” I asked. “He isn’t meant for you,” said my…
Birthday Picnic
This is a rare personal post on The Rose Table! I had the best birthday today with my friends and I wanted to share some photos with you guys. I spent all afternoon enjoying some of my favorite things (champagne, cheese, and horses) with some of my favorite people. I didn’t want to cook on…
Fall Rosé Horse Picnic
I know you, I walked with you once upon a dream. I had the Saturday of my dreams. I uncorked one of my finest bottles, my NV Folktale Rosé Brut from Folktale Winery, for happy hour with my beloved horse Prince and gorgeous friend Cathryn. You might remember me raving about this particular bottle during my…
The Best Spinach Salad
Bacon and dates and pumpkin seeds, oh my! This is one of the best salads I’ve ever made. Spinach, sweet dates, crispy bacon, pumpkin seeds, and mushrooms, and gruyere are tossed with a homemade red wine vinaigrette for a beautiful combination. I was so pleased that I honestly could have had a slightly larger size with…
Spring Horse Picnic

Black Star has 255 acres of woods and uses them for an epic cross-country carriage event on Sunday. On Saturday carriages compete in dressage and a cones course. I love setting up a picnic and watching…
New Portraits
I recently had new portraits taken for my website by Emily Trupiano, a.k.a. TruPhoto TX. I thought you might like to see a glimpse into my every day life: coffee under the trees, dinner in the courtyard, wine by the fire pit, and sunset with my horses. I swapped out a nook with a worn…
Prince Turns 20!
My beloved horse turns twenty years-old today. Born on May 18, 1997 in Paducah, Kentucky, he must have been the cutest foal with that giant stingray-shaped star on his face! I’ll never forget the day I met Prince. I met Prince when he was four years old. I had been looking for a horse to…
