Southern Treats

My mom surprises me with gifts out of the blue and I love it. Yesterdays package had 7 of the cutest old-timey potholders. Aren’t they sweet. She and my cousin Jane found them at an estate sale out in the country, I mean Oklahoma. I imagine they were handmade with love. And I like the idea that they’ve already seen lots of home cookin.

Not that I do a ton of cooking. But now I have a reason to do more. And they fit right in with my groovy vintage apron collection, some are even classics from my own grandmothers. I do love the charming old fashioned stuff mixed in with the modern. Now I’ve just gotta figure out what to serve at my next martini party so I can show off my new-old kitchen accessories.
