An Ode to Domestication

Alright, I'm trying something new, please enjoy some musical entertainment while reading.

An Ode to Domestication,

I come from a long line of very crafty ladies, including, my mother

my great and grandmothers, and great aunts. This only slightly

explains my obsessive love of fabric, especially fabrics like the ones

used inthis glorious quilt made by my Great Aunt Jo. It is one of my

favorite possessions.

I have spent numerous hours trying to pick out my favorite

fabrics out of quilts like this one that have been passed down.

These are a few of my favorites from this one.

For some reason I have always liked the little indian heads,

and these clothes that are running around with little stick people in them.

Also, today I got a new cupcake cookbook,

Unlike so many cupcake books this one does not have hokey

recipes that only show you how to decorate the tops like

lady bugs or clowns. Its actually quite informative, and has

recipes like this one, for apple streusel cinnamon swirl cup cakes

So KU folks and other friends in Lawrence, be excited for things like

Lemon angel cupcakes, butter almond tea cakes, and chocolate

sweetheart cupcakes. Pittsburg friends, its ok to cry a little and

I'm really sorry I didn't find this book till now.
