A Very Vintage December with the Mid-Century Modern Mommy

A Very Vintage December: Days 7 & 8

Very Vintage December / Emily, the Mid-Century Modern Mommy

The first weekend of my Very Vintage December! Honestly, I’m disappointed that I didn’t get more (any) pictures taken. I’m going to have to work on that next week! And getting the recipes I’m using up as well. I mean, how can people follow along, if I don’t? Anyway, I’m doing all of the projects […]

You know, I always make a lot of things this time of year. I bake cookies, make candy — I make treats all month. But this season, doing three holiday projects a day plus my vintage housekeeping, is more than I have ever tried to do. On the other hand, I love decorating. I’m having

A Very Vintage December, Day 4 — and a very busy day! We were supposed to get snow, but it fizzled. I’m not sorry, though. There is still plenty of snow on the ground from our Thanksgiving storm, and another storm coming through this weekend. I hate driving in the snow, so I’m just fine

Yay! It’s December! So, this month, I am doing my very vintage December project — which means that I need LOTS of menus ready-to-go.

One thing that I have always loved is going all out for the end of the year! I throw myself into Thanksgiving (you may have seen my menu for this year!), and on the first Sunday of Advent, I make fruitcake. On the first day of December, I haul out all my shelf vignettes, wall

Mid-Century Menus / Emily, the Mid-Century Modern Mommy

Does the idea of planning for regular family dinners on top of planning for holiday cooking stress you out? Did you know that your family will sit down to 1095 meals a year — mostly made by you? That’s enough to make ANYONE sick of meal-planning! Luckily, I have several vintage cook books with menus
