Retro Cooking

What a wonderful, fresh smell of cinnamon and nutmeg filling the kitchen when a pumpkin pie is in the oven baking. Easter is perfect for a warm pumpkin pie topped with white mounds of whipped cream.

I can not resist getting out my retro aprons to serve this great dessert. Over the years I have added to my collection of aprons. My grandmother was the mentor in the family who wore these aprons. She wore them to cook in, hang clothes on the clothes line outdoors and also when picking fruit off the trees, she would just pick up the bottom on the hem and place the fruit in her apron.

Company is coming

This week end we have company coming. I wanted it to be something fresh and inviting as soon as they arrive at the front door. My first step was to get my favorite magazine, Romantic Homes out and get busy fliping pages to get some ideas.

I came up with these beautiful pink and white colors on white tea rose lace with red and pink glass to add sparkle to this little buffet table.

Do not forget the sweet desserts. Now, I am ready for the week end guests to arrive!

Easter with Izzy

This great little model is all ready for Spring. She has her bright lime and white pokadot print dress with white trim.
Of course no lady is without her handbag.
