Ahhhh...Spring Has Sprung...
Hello, Friends…
Well, can you believe it is
already April
23rd???
There are so
many things
that make
April one of
my favorite
months and
then there is
the ONE thing that makes it
a dreaded month as well, at
least in the US is TAX
DAY! With that looming in
the air, I am very behind on
my ezine. But let’s focus on
the positive, right?
April is full of new LIFE,
baseball, cleaning out the
flower beds and getting the
yard ready for
summer. It is all
about Spring!
And, speaking
of new life my
good friend,
Stacy, had her
first child early
this month. A
beautiful baby
girl. I knew her due date was
April 15th so I stopped in to
see her on the 13th, but she
wasn’t in her office. What a
difference a day makes...I
found out that little Miss
Kylie, a 7lb. 4 oz. baby girl,
had arrived early that morn-
ing. What a blessing a baby
is! I made her a baby blanket
a few weeks ago and I’ve
been waiting to share the
photo of it until I could an-
nounce Miss Kylie’s arrival.
This blanket is found in our
Babies Vol. 1 Collection.
I also have a nice surprise
for you...one of our mem-
bers, Henry, who lives in
New York, went to a Knit-
Out Event and sent in an
article and photos. You will
really enjoy reading it!
Also, see if you can find the
hidden message in the word
search this month. ;-)
Blessings,

On This Day...

 Vintage Recipes from 1914...
This month’s recipes are from The Pure Food
Cook Book — Good Housekeeping Recipes,
originally published in 1914. You’re going to
love these! Keep in mind I am copying these
exactly as they are in the recipe book, so I’ve
put in parenthesis my suggestions.
Nut Bread
Sift together four cupfuls of flour and four
teaspoonfuls of baking powder. To one-half of
this, add one cupful of chopped walnut meats
and half a cupful of raisins. Now beat together
three-fourths of a cupful of sugar, one and one-
half cupfuls of milk, and one egg. Add the
sifted flour, then the flour containing the nuts
and raisins. Put it in two well-greased (loaf)
pans, let it stand about twenty minutes, and
bake for nearly an hour in a moderate (350
degree) oven.
An English Egg
Select a small, firm tomato. (As many as you
will need) Cut out the stem end and scoop out
the seeds and soft center. Sprinkle with salt and
What Others Are Saying...
Dear Tabitha: I downloaded the first one

the one that loves crochet...in fact, for
my mom, crochet is her passion, she is
so excited and happy...Thank you

Hello Tabitha,
I just had to email you to say thank you
for the Vintage Afghans CD. I have only
looked at the first booklet and I am just
awed by these gorgeous afghans! Even
if I never make one I will enjoy just look-
ing at them. Thank you so much, Elaine
Tabitha,
I love my CD. It brought back many
memories of my childhood and watch-

turn upside down to drain (About 5 min.).
Then sprinkle with pepper and finely
chopped parsley. Break a raw egg into the
tomato and add salt and pepper. Arrange the
prepared tomatoes (not too close together) in
a buttered pan and place in a hot oven for a
few minutes.
Cherry Salad
Ripe red cherries, one head of lettuce, quarter
of a pound of filberts, and mayonnaise dress-
ing. Blanch the filberts by soaking in boiling
water and rubbing off the skins. Remove the
stones from the cherries and replace them
with the filberts. Arrange lettuce leaves in
nests, place cherries in center, and serve with
mayonnaise dressing.
same kind of patterns. I have collected
some on my own at yard sales, etc.
It's a wonderful way to save our heri-
tage. Thank you. Kay
Hi, Tabitha. I absolutely loved the pat-
terns and it was exactly what I was
looking for. I found several patterns that
my own grandmother had made and it
was worth every penny. I can't wait to
start working out of the books I received
and I am definitely going back to the
site to buy more! Thanks, Stephen S.
Dear Tabitha,
I enjoy your monthly e-zine so
much! Not only do I love the pat-
terns, I love the recipes and the
little word searches and "extras"
you put into it. It is so wonderful that
you put so much time and love into
each issue.
God Bless you and thank you for
such a wonderful thing that you are
doing in making these ezines. They
always brighten my day. Christa
Strawberry Charlotte
Mash one box of prime berries through a
colander, add two-thirds of a cupful of
powdered sugar, and stir until it is dis-
solved. Soak a half-box of granulated gela-
tin in a half-cupful of cold water for thirty
minutes, then melt it over hot water. Add
the strawberry juice, and stir continually
until the mixture begins to thicken, then
fold in a pint of cream whipped. Pour into a
mold, and stand on ice to harden
(refrigerate). Serve plain.
Thanks, Tabitha, for the free patterns. I
just downloaded them successfully and
am tickled with them. I am looking for-
ward to ordering the other patterns
soon- in the rug collection I saw a cro-
cheted rug with a sailing ship design- for
many years my mother had a rug in that
very pattern in one of the bedrooms at
home. Thanks so much - this is a won-
derful work you are doing!
Kalli
Hi Tabitha, Thank you so very much.
My Mother used to have one of these

Featured Member Project...

What wonderful friends I’ve made since

starting this business. And I can’t think of
a better one than the sweet lady who made
this month’s featured project. This doily is
called “Deep Lagoon” and it is found in
the Doilies Vol. 1 collection. It was made
by Shrabani who lives in New York. She
is without a doubt one of the sweetest peo-
ple I’ve ever met (at least via computer!)
She actually made two of these and sent
them to me for my living room.
Shrabani, I want to take this opportunity to
say “Thanks!” to you publicly, not just for
being a great member, but a good friend.
You are a treasure! May you be blessed
many times over, like you have blessed
me! ;-)
