Southern Sippers
Everyone knows that we're very fond of our cocktail hour down here south of the Mason-Dixon Line. Here are recipes from Sea Island for some Southern sippers that will be the hit of any porch or poolside Happy Hour gathering.
Tailgating Treats
From swanky soirées to SEC Saturdays, we know how to keep the party going and that good food is key to the celebration!
Hold the Pumpkin, Bring On the Pie
We think the pumpkin spice bandwagon is much too full right now, but we still LOVE pie, so we've gathered some recipes for the holiday. From savory to sweet and traditional to trendy, here are some pies (and a cheesecake) that are sure to please!
Appetizing Recipes for Autumn
Apples & pumpkins have their time to shine in the fall, but don’t forget about muscadine grapes, pears, butternut squash, sweet potatoes & greens. Our many occasions to gather & eat include Labor Day, Halloween, Rosh Hashanah & Thanksgiving.
The Sourdough Craze
Sourdough bread baking was another “homesteading” hobby that boomed during the pandemic and has taken root. You too can get started with the same things bakers have been using for centuries: flour, water, warmth, and time.

Celebration Season
It’s no secret that here in South Coastal Georgia, we love a good party. What we don’t always love is all the work that goes into the planning, prep, set-up, cooking, and clean-up. That’s where Monica Andrae and Three Little Birds Catering come in.
