I grew up on a farm in SE Kansas with pigs, cattle, horses and sheep, as well as space to run free. After college, I remember being in a city park flying kites and having the worst ache in my heart for
wide-open spaces. That longing took me back home where I married a high school classmate. My husband (of near 30 years) and I have three "grown and married" daughters and live on land my grandpa once farmed . . . along with our horses, cats, and Luther, our black Labrador.
To put it simply, I love living in the country -- fresh air, quiet atmosphere, breathtaking sunsets. Besides cooking and baking, my hobbies include reading, herb gardening and antique shopping. I enjoy spending time with my family and grandchildren, taking walks with Luther, and managing and traveling with our daughters, THE VOGTS SISTERS, on weekend performances. I adore Polish Pottery and have a passion for collecting vintage glass hen-on-nests, ceramic roosters, and tea pots. I also love Dove dark chocolate!
