Published on by RebekahLeave a comment
Hey, I’m Rebekah and this is my new home office and gym design! Let me show you how it all came together.

This is a food blog, but today I’m sharing my newly remodeled home office and gym design with you! It’s the space where I do all of my writing, and that’s the motivation behind this project. As many of you know, I’m writing a new book, but before I get started, I’m setting myself up for success with a functional office space that doubles as a home gym.

In addition to food and cooking, I love interior design. This is the first space in my home that I’ve designed from start to finish, and I love how it turned out.

East End Provisions is located on the end of Broughton Street with its own parking lot.
I ordered the Hunter Cattle Sausage Roll paired with Sweet Potato and Brussels Sprout Hash from East End Provision’s lunch menu.

For me, cooking inspiration can come from a variety of sources. Whether I’m watching food TV or reading a magazine or cookbook, I’m always looking for different takes on ingredients and new ways to cook with them. Continue reading “Local Sweet Potato and Brussels Sprout Hash” →

January 3, 2018: My husband Kurt (right) and I enjoy snowfall in Savannah! If you look closely, you can see my little Shih Tzu, Ewok, standing inside the doorway wearing his sweater.

We unplugged electronics and brought inside all of our outdoor patio furniture, including the grill and my potted herbs.

During a natural disaster, when one is forced to sort through their belongings to decide what to take and what to leave behind, it provides perspective.
