Muckboots n' Aprons: Sunday Suppers Review

Ever Lived Someplace You Didn't Like?

"Thus says the LORD of hosts, the God of Israel, to all the exiles whom I have sent into exile from Jerusalem to Babylon. Build houses and live in them; plant gardens and eat their produce. Take wives and have sons and daughters; take wives for your sons, and give your daughters in marriage, that they may bear sons and daughters; multiply there, and do not seek decrease. But seek the welfare of the city where I have sent you into exile, and pray to the LORD on it's behalf, for in its welfare you will find your welfare."
Jeremiah 29: 4-7

Aren't we exiles on the earth? Maybe we are exiles in our daily life, the physical, mental, or spiritual place we are living presently...

Sunday Suppers Review

Uncomplicated and stunning. Sunday Suppers could serve a double purpose as a beautiful coffee table book.

Divided up as "Morning", "Noon", "Afternoon", and "Evening" sections with creative titles like, "Take Along", and "Spring Forager's Lunch" this simple cookbook impressed because inside is a treasure trove of gorgeous photography. Sophisticated but simple, this is probably the cookbook I would buy as a gift for someone I really loved and admired, but I don't mind keeping this one for myself as a reminder to slow down and enjoy beautiful meals with my beautiful people.

The recipes are classic and unfussy but gourmet and easy to create using simple, fresh, ingredients.
(please excuse the terrible condition of my fingernail polish! Farm chicks, you know...)

This book groups the recipes into occasions and categories with menu plans to use if you like.
