Day 28. Aprons & Books. Autumn GIVEAWAY.
Aprons.
Beautifully fitting aprons.
Autumn time means more time spent in the kitchen.
Cooking, baking, preserving, entertaining.
It’s the perfect season for a brand new apron made out of Onasburg Cotton. Throw in a few new cookbooks and you’re set for the holidays–baking and entertaining!
I’ve been wearing my new apron, made by The Hip Hostess, and I love so many things about it.
The length.
The elegance.
The class (just look at these adorable buttons)!
The fit.
The style.
And today this APRON CAN BE YOURS!
That’s right! Not only am I giving away this beautiful apron from The Hip Hostess, I’m giving away 8 napkin swags that match the fabric.
Remember my post, here, where I entertained my 11 blogging friends?
In my backyard (reluctantly)?
These beautiful swags + this gorgeous apron + 2 books = AUTUMN LOVE!
Now for book portion of the giveaway.
Since BAKING SEASON is HERE, our beautiful Bridget from the blog Bake at 350, has a brand new stinkin’ book out that she’s graciously giving away today!
Thank you, Bridget!
This book is going to be my new best friend this holiday season, because I plan to do some cookie-decorating (my daughter is really the best at it), and I also plan to give it away for gifts. 60+ designs … how cool is that? I’ve always admired Bridget’s skills and now she’s sharing her talents with the rest of the world. Such an exciting time for her! (I really adore this lady and am honored to have spent time with her here, and here, in the last 2 months.) Check out her blog for more cookie inspiration!
Oh, and I’m giving away a copy of my book, too … The Reluctant Entertainer.
ONE PERSON will WIN all of these gifts, a very FUN Autumn surprise:
-Apron by The Hip Hostess
-8 Napkin Swags by The Hip Hostess
–Decorating Cookies, by Bridget Edwards
–The Reluctant Entertainer, by Sandy Coughlin

I always make homemade pumpkin pie this time of year, that includes real pureed pumpkin instead of canned. Making the crust will require a new apron as well since flour will fly!
We have a family favorite called fall casserole. I would wear the apron making that and a butter pecan cake.

Wow, what a beautiful apron! Love everything about it, especially cute buttons and color. Serving my mother’s stuffed peppers would definitely require a new apron! :)

I would roast my pumpkins growing in the garden and puree them for all sorts of yummy treats! Popsicles and bread are no brainers!
