The Traveling Cookbook ~ Blooming On Bainbridge

I'll have to admit... I was seriously giddy when The Traveling Cookbook arrived way up here in the Northwest all the way from Bridget in Texas! My heart was beaming when I found The Pioneer Woman Cooks wrapped up in an adorable burlap bag with lots of ribbon and a sweet note from Chris Ann and Kristin of the LoveFeast Table. Knowing the cookbook had traveled from Kristin~ to Amy~ to Robyn~ to Wenderly~ and to Bridget made thumbing through the pages very special. I am honored to be part of the effort to raise money for Feed … [Read more...]

Gathered Thoughts Link Party

gathered cards featured image

We have a fun and inspiring writing prompt project coming up! It's the Gathered Thoughts Link Party.  You see, we have been hunting high and low for unique products to add to the LoveFeast Shop.  When we choose items, this may sound corney, but it has to speak to us. It has to reverberate in our souls and say, "I belong in your home."  People have asked us just how we choose products and we wish we had a wise, studied and researched market analysis type answer.  But, we don't.  When we see it, we just know.  The 365 … [Read more...]

We have stepped out in a bit of delustion faith, determined to raise $24,000 to sponsor a Feed My Starving Children Mobile Pack Unit this year.  There are days we wake up and think, are we out of our minds?! Can we really raise this money?  Then we wake up and discover we have friends out there who are cheering us on and even digging their heels in with us to reach our goal. Being mamas of 9 (between us), we can't imagine a day where we'd have to send our kids to bed without having had a meal all day.  We can't begin to … [Read more...]

Today's post comes from Wendy at Wenderly's. She is the third stop for The Traveling Cookbook. It's last stop was at Add a Pinch and also She Wears Many Hats. Follow it's journey HERE.  From the moment I had received the beautiful package from my sweet friend Robyn that contained The Traveling Cookbook I knew just what I wanted to make. Breakfast on the weekends has always been a special family time at our house. One can always wake up to smell the warm earthy aroma of coffee brewing and hear the heavy cast iron griddle … [Read more...]

Today's post comes from Robyn at Add A Pinch - She is our most recent The Traveling Cookbook blogger.  To follow the journey, visit HERE.   My friend Amy invited me to participate in a fun The Traveling Cookbook project and I couldn't wait to hear more about it. In a few days, she sent The Pioneer Woman’s Cookbook to me all wrapped up in a handmade bag with ribbons and bows. I have to admit I was a bit awe struck just in the unwrapping of the book and seeing the cute and special inscriptions from Amy, as well as … [Read more...]

When Chris Ann and Kristin contacted me about The Traveling Cookbook coming my way, I couldn't wait to participate in such a fun project. The Pioneer Woman's Cookbook showed up at my door, in a handmade bag, with trimmings and such. The LoveFeast Table ladies sure do know how to add that special touch. So cute. Trying to decide what to cook first wasn't the easiest thing to do. Ree's cookbook is chock full of tempting things. I finally chose the Hot Artichoke Dip, and Ree's famous Cinnamon Rolls. It was the first time I tried … [Read more...]
