Okay, enough with the crazy weather! I am ready for warmer temperatures, sunshine and for Spring to start, full force!
I've mentioned that Trey and I entered the Steiner Ranch Chili Cook-off and we won the People's Choice Award. Here is our cute little trophy that sits on the Fireplace Mantel. It was a fun evening and we plan to enter again next year!
Finally, the new give-away is up and running so make sure to hop over to that page for all the delicious details. As before, I will have a demo then the live drawing at Faraday's Kitchen Store.

Stacey brings a distinctive focus to Real Estate as her family moved constantly due to her Fathers career in the US Air Force; 16 times before she was 18 years old. That shaped her strong insight of Residential Real Estate and what it takes to makes a house into a home. She recognizes that even a good move can be a stressful move, and it is her desire to take away that stress and to make YOUR transition smooth, without worry or concern.
She is a Director for the Williamson County Association of Realtors, spearheading such projects as the Partners in Education Mentoring Program, a Cell Phone Recycle Program and Coats for Kids. Additionally, she is on the Marketing/Public Relations Committee and the Government Affairs Committee, raising funds and Political awareness within Travis and Williamson County and the state of Texas. She feels strongly about giving back to the Community where she lives and works.
Stacey was raised in England and the US to include such states as Kansas, Colorado, New Mexico, Alabama, Virginia, Hawaii and Texas. She permanently relocated to Austin in 2000 where she lives with her husband, Trey. They have 5 children with the older four being Cedar Park High School graduates. She has always been involved with Leander ISD. She mentors at Canyon Ridge Middle School and volunteers at Steiner Ranch Elementary where her youngest daughter attends.
Her passion for her family has spurred her love of cooking. While growing up in England, she helped her Mother plan and prepare many Social Events. She was able to freely experiment in the kitchen and that love continues today. She and her husband are constantly coming up with new recipes for the dinner table which on Sundays includes everyone.
