Inspiration

Anyone else like The Farm Chicks? Excuse me for boasting, but I live in the same city as they do! We pick strawberries at the same farm! I wasn't able to attend their annual Antique Show this June, because we were on vacation in California. I would love to get my hands on a copy of their new cookbook.


I found this cookbook, Apples for Jam, in Anthropologie a few years ago, and it's a book I wish I would have purchased. I love the recipes and the photography!


I'm just going to have to break down and buy this book! I look at it every time I go into Barnes and Noble (without kids, that is). I just plop myself down on the floor and before I know it, I've let a half an hour go by.


The Apron Book is one that I've had my eye on for awhile now. I adore aprons! The author, EllynAnne Geisel, was this year's honored guest at the Farm Chicks Antique Show.

Here is another apron book that I discovered while browsing at a bookstore. The aprons in this book are adorable, and there are patterns for each apron; however, most of them have to be enlarged to 400%.

Sewing With a French Twist is a book that I almost bought as a gift for a friend. I probably would have been tempted to keep it for myself. The projects in this book, as well as the pictures, are very stylish.
