Delish Kitchenalia

From the kitchen of an Etsy seller who sells vintage homewares and other vintage items. Above is one of her favourite spots in her kitchen, atop the fridge. Next week you'll find out who this seller is, and I'll share some items I recently purchased from her.


These suitcases are used to store cookbooks, what a great idea! And below, two examples of the treats that are made in this kitchen.


Enjoy the rest of the week all! See you next week! :)

Johnny Jump Up And Kiss Me!

The old fashioned favourite Johnny Jump Up is a favourite flower of mine. This cheery little flower pops up in Spring, and among many other names is also known as Johnny Jump Up And Kiss Me and Heartsease.

Traditionally associated with matters of the heart, this flower was an emblem of love and courtship in Victorian times and for centuries beforehand.

Look at the shape of these flowers, they look like butterflies! :)

Johnny Jump Up flowers are edible too. They add a lovely vintage touch to food and drinks. Here is a delicious example:

"Ultimate Lemon Mousse" served in a vintage Federal Glass custard cup on a vintage Pyrex plate.

Enjoy the rest of the week all! See you next week! :)
