Last week my old roommate and wonderful friend Stancy came in town with her friend Lissa. They flew in from Texas on Monday and it was such a treat to have these two at the house for a few days! They are both incredible photographers so be sure to take a look at their work: Stancy Higley Photography & Lissa Anglin Photography. Stancy brought me these adorable salt & pepper shakers. I’m seriously thrilled about them. Yes, that might seem odd that I’m THRILLED about salt & pepper shakers, but I’ve never owned any. There really is something you should know – I don’t really have a ton of kitchen items and baking tools. Little by little, I’m adding things to my drawers and cabinets to help me with this cooking adventure but for now I’m making do with what I have. I think it’s this way for most young people. Fancy kitchen items can be really costly and it’s not always affordable to go out and buy something to make one recipe. Don’t get me wrong, I definitely have a lengthy wish list, but for now I am really happy with my new clear mixing bowls and these fun salt & pepper shakers.
