Rave Reviews

Dear Sibby---- We have returned home--Well, I looked and looked for my "treat box" this am and yesterday am and no one brought one by!! I picked up some orange cranberry scones late today but nothing like you made us each am and these were cold! We are still talking about how good they were! Do you have a recipe book?

We can't sing enough praises about our week end at Juniper Farm!! We had waited so long for it and were afraid we had built it up too much----but it WAS BETTER!!! WE loved the security of the place so we could feel free to hike and wander around. We loved the food and the cabin---oh my gosh---the cabin and outdoor shower what a treat!!! And then cooking in your home----it was truly like coming to visit a relative or having a party with friends and everyone gathering in the kitchen to cook and eat! We felt so at ease and so WELCOME!! Our fish was just the best! You were a great teacher and hostess!

Thank you, Thank you!!! It was wonderful---we have not come back to earth yet!! Vanessa headed back to Dumas and we stayed on the phone all week so empowered now to try lots of new foods and combos. It was really a great weekend---and Mother's Day to boot!!  Missing Juniper Farms and the wonderful lifestyle you have!! 

Thanks for sharing!

Most sincerely,
Linda Vanaman
 

"The first time I was at Juniper Hills Farms and Onion Creek Kitchens was for a Friend's Party.  The drive out there from Austin alone was beautiful and put me in a good mood.  The house is beautiful-- gives the effect of open air all around looking out on the beautiful surroundings.  Giving a peaceful feeling.  The food was outstanding!  Beautifully presented and delicious.  I took the entire rest of the day so I could at least taste everything.  Inquiring about different dishes the chef made everything sound easy to prepare.  Made me want to learn to cook"   Bettie Naylor


"What a wonderful evening! I can't tell you how very much I enjoyed the cooking class last Saturday. You have such a beautiful place and it was so much fun to meet you, see your wonderful home and learn so much about cooking---and eating! Keep us on your mailing list!"   Cissy Ellis
 

"Sibby, you have taken a beautiful property and turned it into a glorious site.  Every time we drive through your gates we are instantly at peace and in awe of the surroundings.  I can't wait for the next class!"  John Kerrigan


"Thank you so much for the wonderful dinner last evening-my husband and I had a blast-everything from the location to the wines to the terrific dinner was fabulous and meeting everyone was a treasure--do keep us posted on your cookbook and new products."
Melody Chatelle and Edward R. Zamora
 

"Dear Sibby,  In February, Rob and I considered booking a southern European vacation.  We decided to pay off our home renovations instead.  So, what an unexpected surprise to experience the Provence of Texas--complete with lavender fields, olive farms, vineyards and fresh produce.  Your home and the surrounding countryside exude a warmth and beauty.  We didn't feel at all like tourists; but, your personal guests.  Thank you!"  Mary Beth and Rob
 

"We are still talking about our truly memorable evening with you, your gracious hospitality and generosity."    Carol and Chris Adams


"The tart cooking class was soooo wonderful!  We had a great time and can't wait to sign up for another one!"   Karen L. Kahan
 

"We had such a wonderful time Saturday evening, we couldn't stop talking about it the entire weekend.  We told all of our friends about it and they can't wait to try it out.  (this would be a perfect idea for a friend's birthday)  Your house is beautiful and your idea of classes is brilliant!  We have been wanting to take a cooking class for a very long time and are glad we started with you.  Everyone in the group was very nice and lots of fun as well.  I even received some pictures that Jim took of the class.  Anyway, I just wanted to say congratulations on all of your success in this, your bakery and in life.  I really look up to your accomplishments.  Thanks again for a memorable evening." Tina Castillo


"Thank you all so much for the "rest stop" sleep over.  Juniper Hills Farm is wonderful.  It is very obvious that a great deal of love and care was fostered to build your space.  I hope to join in a retreat soon.  Namaste" Cheryl Johnson
 

"Thank you so much for the wonderful evening.  All the dishes were delicious and thank you for the recipes.  It was fun having family and friends together.  I know Amy will enjoy the Yule Log class.  Hope to see you again soon.  Have a great Thanksgiving week." Margaret Thompson


"Thank you so much for all your attention on our stay at your beautiful place.  We are already planning another trip when the pool is completed!  Everything was so perfect.  I am so blessed to be your friend."  Mike Davis


"Thank you so much for your warmth and hospitality! It was far more than a cooking class-it was an experience for the senses! Until next time...." Pat Hernandez
 

"If you ever need a testimonial for the website, cooking classes, recipes, here's one from me. After my mom and I took the Cooking with Herbs class, I proceeded to make almost every recipe we learned in the class. My herb garden is now a staple for my cooking. The lemon rosemary cookies get rave reviews everywhere I take them, I used the basil oil for our client holiday gifts last year and the herbed butters for gifts this year. Everyone asks, "Did you MAKE these?" Thanks for giving me the tools to be able to answer, "Why Yes!"  Christy Seals


Dear Sibby,
How do I thank you for all the hospitality and instruction for the Richardson's Women's Club Gourmet Class? We made it back to Richardson just fine but there were no warm scones yesterday morning. What a treat! The class experience was more than I expected (inexperience) and my did we learn and enjoy the food. I am currently looking for some of the ingredients; making my way to buy a lemon juicer like yours; and have the chicken thawed for the cutlets for tonight.

The ladies are planning a scaled down replicate of our experience at Onion Creek Farms for the remaining 32 woman who belong to our group. I will be traveling with my husband at the time of the April meeting.

You are the top not only with cooking, hostessing and as a business woman but also very skilled in leading 11 women!! Thank you for your leadership last Thursday. Everyone wants to come back. And so do I. What a trip that would be for my Granddaughter and me.

Just as soon as I get the photos via attachment I will forwarded them to you.

Fondly,
LaRuth Morrow


"Thanks again for making this beautiful place to stay. We'll not soon forget our short time here. For your Texas hospitality, for all the effort that goes into cooking classes and for maintaining Juniper Hills farm, we're grateful to have experienced it!"
