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’m sure it would have to be squash/pumpkin something- soup, muffins, scones, bread. I could go on and on! I love the smell of fall in my kitchen.

I just found a recipe this morning for Chocolate Chip Studded Pumpkin Roll Bars from this blog that I’d like to try:

My now grown kids and I have a tradition of making and sharing mini pumpkin loaves. We put them in decorative cellophane bags and deliver with fresh grown little pumpkins topped with sunflowers. They have been delivered to college dorms, shut ins, coworkers, and friends. We’ve made them with families as a fall fun project at church and used them as part of a college dorm service project. Really, does anything smell better than pumpkin bread in the fall?
Creamcheese and pumpkin muffins!
Basically if you can put pumpkin in it, I’m making it this fall. My next venture is pumpkin cornbread. It will go great with my chili.
I make pumpkin crisp for the Thanksgiving holidays. But I recently made it for a bake sale and well I could have used an apron as I got pumpkin splashing on my when I made it.
