Wow! Two posts in one day I'm off to a good start! So once upon a time in an apartment far far away I received a catalog called Gooseberry Patch. It was love at first sight. Lots of cute vintage bowls table linens and accents for the kitchen etc. They also had adorable planners calendars and of course COOKBOOKS. I don't really remember my first one. But I knew I had to have more. and more. and more. Well my collection has grown to over....over more than most normal people but I love them. They always have a little story to go w the recipe and lots of cozy tips and ideas on the bottom. Sometimes they are somewhat repetitive (I'm sure there 20 different versions of chicken noodle casserole among them) but I still love all of them. They seem to inspire me to do something. Not necessarily cook or bake. But it inspires me to do something. So you will see me posting a lot of recipes from there. As soon as I get my camera situated I will post pics of them and of course what I'm making. Now to the recipe I made tonite. Its for breakfast tomorrow. Its called Overnight Oatmeal from their cookbook called Autumn In The Country... who wouldn't want a cookbook called that?
