The journey of a thousand words begins with the first sentence !!! Hard at work on the whole ox cookbook . Yes that’s right we are going to have a nationally published cookbook as a lasting legacy for all of our hard work !!! How amazing will it be to see our recipes come to life and our food and little shop immortalized in print. Coming 2028 or sooner if we can get it out faster to our editor. My injury and surgery really got us behind . But with the help of our friend Alice we are really starting to make progress !!!
