This is the book that I just happened upon at the bookstore the other day and it is nothing short of delightful!
If you haven't had the pleasure of reading it yet, go get it!
It's a slice of life with recipes that follow. So much fun and to my utter enjoyment I found out that the author Molly Wizenberg has a blog called: http://orangette.blogspot.com/
I just visited it for the first time and it's lovely. She makes me think that perhaps somewhere not too deep down, there's a book in me too!
Who knows.
Regardless, if you have a moment check the book and the blog out!
Hugs,
Linder

Oh wonderful!
Let me know what you think! My face has been buried in it since I started it yesterday and oddly enough has inspired me to start creating which is a blessing because I haven't done much cooking, baking or crafting since I moved to Chicago 8 months ago.
Maybe a mild case of the blues?

If you're asking yourself if it's the blues...it probably is....take the plung...do something creative...it will make you feel sooooo much better.....
I'm a country mouse, not a city mouse....I'd freak out living in Chicago!...
Whenever I question why I'm sitting on a farm doing farmwork and working myself to death, I go to Columbus, Ohio for the day and surely my attitude is different when I arrive home....I just need a reality check sometimes....eh?

Will have to check this one out! Sounds really good, thanks for sharing! Since we opened our Primitives and Antiques shop, at "Ye Olde Homeplace" I have slowed down on my crafting. Which is not a good thing, because that's the kind of things we sell in our shop + antiques. But it seems by the time I get home I just want to flop on the couch. Saddd. Maybe the book will get my keester in gear, lol.
~~Blessings, Mikki Jo
