Anthropologie have these really pretty rolling pins,
round and rectangular pans, and measuring spoons, all
were displayed in my local shop last week - great gift
ideas even if you don't need them for your own kitchen.

While writing a lot about the autumn pumpkins
currently being sold at each bend in a country road,
or even your local grocery store, and requesting recipes,
all of which I'm so grateful for, I came across this
awesome looking Pumpkin Carrot Cake from
Gold Medal flour.
Go HERE if you would like the recipe.
I haven't made this yet but, as I love carrot cake in
all its guises, I may give it a try soon . . . but only
when a large group is expected for tea. I don't want
when a large group is expected for tea. I don't want
leftovers. It's a lack of willpower issue!
More china from Anthropologie - I just adore the bowls and
buy them often, usually in white. Use them for everything in
the kitchen, at the table, morning latte bowls, storing
leftovers . . . literally 'from soup to nuts'.
Yes, pretty useful things at this lovely shop.

Yes! I bake. Many of my recipes I grew up with or my husband did, so when I baking I'm also giving a nod to the past - stirring up memories as well as cookies. I don't bake as much as I used to, fewer mouths to feed in this house. But when I do, I want a large crowd to share my goodies and save me from the leftovers.
ReplyDeleteI definitely have to go to London and visit one of the Anthropologie shops! Love those measuring spoons, as you say they would make a lovely gift.
ReplyDeleteOh my! What a delicious post. I love the beautiful dishes and the colourful bowls from Anthro and the cake sure looks delicious too. I'm like you and would have to make a cake like that for guests so there aren't leftovers. :) It's sunny and very cool here this morning in the upper 40's with a chilly wind. It's a scarf day. :) I hope yours is a bit warmer than that!
ReplyDeleteI would be in so much trouble if there was and Anthro near me!
ReplyDeleteI agree with Penny. Too much temptation. That carrot cake looks delicious Mary. Hope you are enjoying our wonderful Fall weather.
ReplyDeleteI have purchased those same bowls mostly in white also and love them.
ReplyDeleteYes, we use them for many things all the time. The carrot cake looks
totally awesome. I would have a difficult control issue if I made it for sure.
I had thoughts of doing some baking tomorrow, but then I found some
already baked apple bread in my freezer which makes life so easy just to thaw.
Such an amazing store! I would certainly have trouble getting on a plane back to good ol' blighty with suitcases full of this bounty!!
ReplyDeleteI love Anthro. Such pretty colors and designs. I have a raw carrot cake recipe I want to try very soon. :) Best wishes, Tammy
ReplyDeleteI do bake - often it is pie since that is Don's favorite. When the kids were all still home I baked a LOT of cookies and cakes - my goodness, they and their friends could sure eat!! Now I have to make smaller pies so they don't go to waste.
ReplyDeleteI do bake, Mary, but not very much for just Dennis and myself. I like to take a baked good to a potluck or group dinner where it won't be in the house to tempt us. Love the Anthropolgie finds you shared. xxx ~ Nancy
ReplyDeleteGorgeous baking dishes and rolling pins! So nice! That carrot cake looks scrumptious! I do bake, but not often.
