Cooking for a Cause

Yesterday I was privileged to attend the book signing of the Mennonite Girls Can Cook book,at our local Ten Thouand Villages store, a special day for me, as I have been reading the blogs of several of the authors for a long time.....What lovely ladies!...friendly and sweet..., but most important, their book will benefit needy children. Read about it on their website:

I asked my daughter to take a few photos for me...here they are...signing ....
...and at the other end of the table...me, being welcomed by Lovella and Anneliese
..Now I'm looking forward to trying more recipes!

That is one cookbook I'd like to have. I like that they are wearing their aprons for the book signing. :-)

Hi Millie,
I almost went to the store to see them, I was over on Pembina Hwy to have coffee with a friend, but I decided I needed to get home instead.
How nice for you to get to meet them, I'm sure they are lovely ladies.
Your bouquet is lovely, as always.
Hugs, cindy

Victoria…and Me

Image
To see larger photos, click to enlarge.. The May-June 2009 Victoria magazine is one of my favorites, featuring blue and white... one of the open pages with an article on linens...it just happens that I have one of the patterns... There is also a feature on blue and white Wedgewood ... I have photographed some of my pieces alongside the article... ....here is my interpretation of blue and white... As a nod to the current issue of Victoria, which features some tea tables in green, I have  set out my own little tea table, with some scones... ...or perhaps you'd like to help yourself to a chocolate-cherry morsel? On this spring day, I am joining in with : Celebrate Spring http://blissfulrhythm.blogspot.com/ Mary's Mosaic Monday, on whose blog you will see some lovely snowdrops: http://dearlittleredhouse.blogspot.com/2011/03/mosaic-monday-snowdrops.html Also,   Sandi is having a special tea party today, so be sure to go over there and enjoy her lovely blog
