Been reading one of her books today, had to post a picture. This may be my favorite, at least until I read another one. But so calming to read and so many good ideas. I think she is coming out with a new book this year, I look forward to that. Nancy Jo

Like you, I haven't been to a tupperware party in a long time. I had so much tupperware at one time, I couldn't close the cabinet. LOL. I'm not familiar with Susan Branch. I'll have to check her out on Amazon. Thanks. Marly

Marly - check out Susan Branch's blog. Nancy mentioned it on another thread. Its lots of fun to read. I think you'll like it.
Nancy - how was the Tupperware party? I like Tupperware, but its soooooo expensive. Did you find anything good?

For Christmas I got a Susan Branch Eat & Be Happy Homemade Recipes, it is like a recipe journal/scrapbook to add my own favorite recipes. There are recipe cards, stickers and stock paper dividers, so I will be able to create a wonderful Family Recipe Cookbook, this will be fun. Wanted to share that with you, I too love Susan Branch and look forward to her Willard Newsletter in my email box. Happy Sunday everyone. Farmgirl Hugs, Deb

I will have to check out the Susan Branch blog and see what there is there. It sounds like it will be fun. I haven't been to a Tupperware party in years.

I love Susan Branch. I have several of her books including this one that I come back to again and again. I like her stickers too. Sounds like a great recipe book, CJ. All of her stuff is so cute. I love Tupperware too. I used to sell it and still have too much I think. My husband says I can "smell it" from miles away. The expense is because Tupperware has a LIFETIME guarentee that they have made good on so many times that I know of personally. Sometime they change the colors but it has always been worth it for me. Some of my Tupperware is 35 years old and still looks good. Joey

I love Susan Branch as well. I have all her books and tend to buy things by her (stationary and like that) when I find them. I got to meet her in person at a book signing once years ago in Cambria Calif. She was as sweet as you would think she would be!
