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.

I was just thinking yesterday that I need to make pumpkin squares soon! I definitely need an apron for that one!
I’m beginning a second blog about cooking and baking and that will require an apron. My current apron does not look that cute. One of the recipes I am going to blog about on the Whine and Cheese is something I made that turned out way different. When I meant to make a fancy new recipe, it became a lovely fall soup. A delicious accident.
I need an apron to make pumpkin pie. :)
I enjoy sewing and wearing aprons. I would appreciate a new apron to wear as I begin preparing vegetable soup to stock up my freezer, as well as pumpkin chocolate chip muffins and a host of other amazing items to enjoy all winter long.

I would wear the adorable apron to make a cranberry apple pie.
Pumpkin cinnamon rolls. They are so messy but so worth it! :)

I’m a messy cook, I think I need an apron for any meal but one recipe I’ve been meaning to try is Butternut Squash Chili.
