Stockyards Steakhouse carries Tastes & Treasures II

Enjoying the moment are Ruth McLeod, owner Gary Lasko standing. Barb Ziehler, Linda Corderman seated in booth.

Stockyards owner Gary Lasko was one of the first venues to be involved with the new cookbook. We were so pleased to visit with him and deliver 20 books. 

Despite his rather small gift shop, he re-ordered 30 more books in two days and we couldn't be happier to deliver them to him. Delivery often includes a stop for lunch, drinks, dessert . . .

Who says the Stockyards is only about beef?
Decadent and delicious, warm pecan pie with rum sauce is perfect for dessert.

Open House features 5Cs

Orange, grapefruit, lemon, lime, dates, cotton, sunflowers, prickly pear, pomegranate, copper plate

Rancho Joaquino was built in 1924, when Arizona had only been a state for 12 years. The historic two story adobe home was a horticulture heaven on 80 acres designed by a landscape architect from California.
In those days, Arizona was known for it's 5Cs: Cotton, Citrus, Cattle, Climate and Copper. They were all prominent in the beautiful centerpieces that adorned the tables on Thursday, Oct 23 for the Historical League's very successful Fall Membership Open House.
