This past weekend, my sweet roommates threw me a kitchen shower!
They ordered adorable invitations, bought hydrangeas to match my ring and baked dangerously delicious sweets. You can't imagine how much time I've put into making every last one of Kaiti's strawberry buttercream blondies disappear.
The shower was extra special, because my sister came from Atlanta, Olivia was in town from Nashville and three of my best friends from high school were there. I opened so many thoughtful gifts, including an Anthropologie tablecloth from my roommates ;)
But the most special present was a gift from my mom. She bought me a cookbook that she received at her kitchen shower and marked she and my dad's favorite meals from their first year of marriage. She also sent a stack of my grandmother's recipes. Jackie was the most incredible Southern cook, and she wrote out all of her recipes for my mom years ago.
I felt so special, and all of this is starting to feel more real now that Jonathan and I have stuff for our little house. Thank you to everyone who came and helped stock our kitchen! Now I just need to learn how to cook...
