The Power of Love and Japanese Yuzu #PioneerWoman #FruitDessert
Ree Drummond, the redheaded Pioneer Woman smiles at me from the cover of People magazine. Like many Americans, I’m enchanted with the Manhattan marketing maven who traded her high heels in for cowboy boots. Skyscrapers disappeared and so did her strict vegan diet. A dashing Ladd Drummond swept Ree off her feet and onto his ranch.
The Food Network star rejected her Pawhuska, Oklahoma small town roots in her youth. Fame as a globetrotting prima ballerina was young Ree’s goals. Yet a chance encounter in a smoky bar changed her mind. Ironically love brought her the notoriety she craved in her youth.
The Pioneer Woman blog started as recipes and photography of her new life on the ranch. Love for her cowboy, children and good food has led Ree Drummond to 15 TV seasons, 4 cookbooks, and 1 profitable Pioneer Woman product line.
Pioneer Woman recipes burgeoned from Ree’s care for family. They are practical, do-able and delicious! Her apricot bars are divine. B
