Kitchen Crafts: No-Sew Farmer’s Market Bag
I made this bag as a Christmas gift for my mom. I regrettably never took Granny up on her numerous offers to teach me how to sew, so I was excited at the idea of being able to construct a bag without using a sewing machine. The actual process of putting together the bag was surprisingly easy. (You literally use a stapler and duct tape—I’m totally not kidding)! The part that ended up being the most time consuming was cutting the fabric to the appropriate dimensions and adhering the iron-on vinyl. (The vinyl step could be skipped if you opt for a sturdy liquid-resistant material such as oil cloth). In addition to written instructions, there is a video to watch, which was essential to my success in completing the bag. This project wasn’t touted as a “farmer’s market bag,” but I think that is the perfect use, especially with the wet-produce-resistant innards! You can take a peek at the how-to and instructional video here.

A Vegetarian Cooking Blog
The art of keeping a "scrap cookbook" has been passed down by the women in my family. I learned from both my granny and my mom. A scrap cookbook is essentially a scrapbook for your kitchen. A place to keep favorite recipes, ones you plan to try in the future, and ones given to you by friends and family. It is also a place to stash cooking guides, kitchen tips, recipe adjustments, food gift ideas, etc., and to make notes about food-related happenings, (ie: "Baked these cookies for the holidays and everyone freaked their freak!"). This blog is essentially an electronic version of my scrap cookbook.
I am a just a vegetarian girl who loves to cook and who is often asked to share recipes or provide advice as to good sources for recipes. Since I'm big on the procrastination celebrations, and typically never end up getting recipes to people, I decided to start this blog as exercise in self-discipline and a way to keep all my cooking and kitchen stuff in one place.
My intrigue with all things culinary began in my Granny’s kitchen at a very young age. I fully believe that you learn the most about cooking from others, so I hope that is the case as you peruse my blog.
Thanks for reading, and enjoy! ♥
