Boots McBlog bio picture

bonjour, y'all!

I'm a dash of Jackie O.  A pinch of Elly May.  A splash of Quelques Fleurs.  A jigger of pickle juice. My friends call me Boots. My name is JoBeth.  I'm just a southern girl who adores a great tune, a delicious meal, beautiful flowers, a frilly dress, and the perfect shoe. I'm married to a curly haired boy I call "The Angler".   By day, I'm a healthcare stategist with a passion for NonProfits.   I have a Masters degree in food.  Literally.  I am a registered dietitian, but I do love burgers and chocolate chip cookies.   I survived being President of the Junior League.  I'm a daydreamer, an avid i-pod shuffler and a novice photographer.  I love to laugh.  I'm often silly with a heapin' helpin' of sappy. I'm blessed beyond measure and amazed by God's grace. I try to keep my high heels walking in faith one step at a time, It's my prayer to help other women live beautiful, gracious lives. 

Like all true southerners, I come from a long line of storytellers. My favorite stories paint pictures.  And great pictures tell stories. I hope to accomplish both on this blog.  So,  grab yourself a glass of sweet tea, kick off your Manolo's and sit a spell on my virtual veranda. Flair and folly awaits.  

Do tell!

Bonjour Y’all!

It’s been a long time in the works and finally I can say…” Welcome to my blog”

Come on in to Boots McBlog; a place for flair and folly. Let me introduce myself. My name is JoBeth – my friends call me Boots.  I’m just a girl…a thirty something girl. I’m a wife to a curly haired boy I’ve known since I was 10. I love shopping at Neiman’s – although most of my money goes to Target.  I am a jill of all trades, with a masters in Nutrition.  I am also a junk food junkie. I love food – good food. I love to find new recipes and sometimes I’ll even share them with my friends.  I love to laugh.  a lot.  I adore the finer things in life – fashion, interiors, flowers, shoes. I also know the finest, most beautiful things in life aren’t things at all. I am blessed beyond measure and amazed by grace.

And it is by grace- I picked up a camera on a whim this year and was smitten. Photography has given me an chance to compose all the things I love within a single frame -  Color, texture, light, life.  Its an opportunity to tell a story.

As a southerner, I come from a long line of gifted story tellers. bootsmcblog.com  is how I will try to carry on that tradition. I envision this as a place to share recipes, photos, tips on gracious living, fashion finds,  some favorite tunes, my quirky life observances, and the stories of people I meet along the way–  consider this my high tech veranda, if you will.

I’m glad you’re here.

So, kick off your Manolos and sit a spell.

Flair and folly awaits.

sweet tea & roses
