Came across photos of Sam's pantry and fell in love...
She used glass mason jars and labels she designed, to create a beautiful way to store basic food items.
Would make a great weekend project, don't you think? The labels are available as a free download here. Print them on sticker paper and adhere them to the tops like she did or on the fronts of larger jars. Or just use it as inspiration and make your own (let me know if you do -would love to see!)
How was your Thanksgiving weekend? Did you eat a lot of turkey? I was fortunate to spend the holiday with my family. My husband, the chef of the day, made the most delicious meal: turkey, mushroom and thyme mashed potatoes, gravy, green bean casserole, onion rolls, and to top it off pumpkin pie. Yum!
Speaking of food, how do you all organize your family recipes? I currently organize digitally, most of the recipes that I find in magazines, blogs, etc. (Evernote is great for that), but there are special family recipes I've been meaning to write down (like the recipe for mom's menudo, grandma's tortillas, etc.) and keep in something beautiful and tactile. I was delighted to find several lovely options:
