Good Morning!

If you read my blog, then you know how much I enjoy cooking and baking. I don’t read tons of cookbooks because it’s so easy to just google search for recipes anytime, but occasionally a cookbook comes along that piques my interest so much that I purchase it. And today I’m talking about the one cookbook that I purchased in the past year: Magnolia Table.

Around the holidays last year I picked up the Magnolia Table cookbook by Joanna Gaines. Even though I’m not huge into HGTV, I am well aware of Chip and Joanna and what big stars they have become. I actually picked up the cookbook to put in a Yankee Swap gift exchange for Christmas because I figured that she is so well-liked that surely someone would want her cookbook. (Side Note: I think any cooking tools or cookbooks make great gifts in a gift swap because everyone has to eat and there is usually someone who will be happy with such items!)

However, I never ended up putting it into the gift swap because I thumbed through it one day and decided I wanted to keep it and make some of the recipes! But then I put on my counter and sort of forgot about it. Months later, I picked it up and started leafing through it again and decided that I really needed to try some of the recipes out!

Fast forward to today, and so far I’ve made six recipes from this book and they have all been amazing! So I’ve put together a little post to share some pictures of the recipes and my thoughts on them.
