Recipe for Hope is a wonderful charity event that benefits Bonny Diver’s Hair Peace Charities which helps women with cancer.
There are lots of local celebrities there serving wonderful dishes. I’m making Roasted Garlic Ravioli in Fresh Spinach Cream Sauce. My friends David Highfield and Heather Abraham will be there along with a host of other media personalities.

It's always wonderful to see Heather Abraham and David Highfield at Pittsburgh Today Live.

We covered a lot of ground today, how to water the right way, deadheading and even how to start a garden in July.

Join me in November of 2026 to explore the Christmas markets of Germany, France and Switzerland.
These traditional outdoor festivals feature adorned stalls selling handmade, festive crafts, ornaments, and regional foods. It’s amazing!

I had a great talk with Linda Smith author of The Peach Thief, a book I loved. It’s set in the 1850’s and follows the adventures of Scilla Brown, a workhouse orphan in 1850s England posing as a boy to get a job in a wealthy earl's garden after being caught trying to steal a peach.

We had fun on PTL discussing ways to keep tomatoes healthy through the growing season. It’s been a cool, wet spring which can be problematic for the plants.

Joe Hamm passed away recently, he was a wonderful man who loved gardening and daffodils.
