The Mermaids are all a buzz around here today! Our very first Mermaids in the Kitchen Recipe submission has arrived! That’s right; today, we are sharing a recipe sure to knock your socks off from one of our wonderful guests.

Lori Cumberledge, from Maryland, has shared her Layered Spinach Salad with us, and the picture has us drooling! Lori’s salad is extra special, too. It was published in the Taste of Home Cookbook back in 1997! This recipe looks heavenly, and Lori says it is the perfect choice for any summer cook out. Make sure you scroll down and get your copy of this recipe for your next gathering! Thanks for sharing Lori, we can’t wait to try it!

Mermaids in Our Midst: Jessica and Family from New Mexico

Leave a Comment / CandyLand of Cottages, Mermaid's Friends and Family /

We love hearing from our guest about their Mermaid Cottages stay. Hearing from you helps us make sure we are doing everything we can to make your Tybee Island escape perfect, so it makes our heart smile to see notes like this one from Jessica all the way in Albuquerque, New Mexico!

“The perfect vacation home for our family! We loved everything about Crabby Jo’s! The bedrooms were a bit small but that wasn’t a problem. There were 3 adults, 1 teenager, and 2 small children in our party (with numerous visitors during the day) and we all fit just fine. The extra showers downstairs were perfect for hosing off before venturing in after a day at the beach. While not “baby proofed” I felt comfortable letting my kids (age 3 and 11 months) wander freely about the home – it was very clean and well-kept. The beach, just steps away, was a dream! We even saw baby turtle tracks! The rest of Tybee Island was wonderful as well – we ate a number of local restaurants, visited numerous shops, hung out at the pier, and even purchased some kitschy art to bring back home to New Mexico- a giant fish made out of scrap metal and an old boogie board! We drove nearly 27 hours to visit Tybee (with 2 wee ones in the car) and I’d do it all over again. I’d definitely stay at Crabby Jo’s again, too. Thank you for sharing your home with us!” ~Jessica M. from New Mexico

We are so excited your family vacation was such a success, Jessica! That’s quite a drive, so we’re glad you were able to relax and enjoy your stay after such a journey. We love to hear you fell for Tybee, and we can’t wait to see you again! Don’t be a stranger!

Have you stayed with us at Mermaid Cottages? We’d love to hear about your stay! Please take a moment to share your thoughts on our Mermaid Cottages Facebook Page, or shoot us and email at diane@mermaidcottages.com. We love hearing from you!
