interior design for outdoor spaces MinnesotaKathy’s outdoor inspiration comes from the words of Wolfgang Puck, “Cooking is like painting or writing a song. Just as there are only so many colors and notes, there are only so many flavors – it’s how you combine them that sets you apart.” Cooking outdoors heightens the experience to a different level for both the cook and the diner. Outdoor living has been a growing home improvement category for years, but the Covid-19 pandemic has really elevated the importance of having private space just beyond your own doors.  Kathy’s expert tip??
