Greetings Farm Girls!
I posted this over at the Reader's section and recipe/food area too, but I am a long-time fan of Mary Jane's Farm and enjoy many of her magazines and books in my collection of too much stuff. I just discovered this wonderful forum today and wanted to take the time to say hello but also if you want to read the on-going exploits of another farm girl, transplanted from New England to Kentucky in the past few years, come on over to www.InthePantry.Blogspot.com
Also, I wrote a book (the only book) on pantries a few years back: The Pantry-Its History and Modern Uses [Gibbs Smith: 2007]. If you like old vintage pantries and kitchens and their history, this book is about the design and social and domestic history of the pantry within the context of the American kitchen. Lots of beautiful color photographs and vintage images, too--and an entire chapter on the farmhouse pantry (my particular favorite).
I'm offering it through my website for a special bargain price of $11.95, plus shipping (check or PayPal). Check it out at www.CatherinePond.com
All best and enjoy the fruits of summer wherever you are!

I am enjoying all of your comments, pantry thoughts and good wishes! Now, how do you all find the time to read each other's blogs, live your busy lives and post on Mary Jane's forums?? I think I either have ADD, a scheduling issue or both. The FarmGirl forum is fab and I wish I'd found it sooner.
All best,
Catherine

Hi Catherine and welcome to the forum! I have no idea how some of these ladies do all the things they do. They amaze me! I've learned so much since I joined this forum and sometimes I totally lose track of time reading postings and their blogs. Good thing I don't live on a farm or I'd be in trouble...LOL
Happy farmgirl sister #353

Welcome Catherine, I can't believe you wrote a book on Pantry's!! I just love them and already ordered your book. I am just so excited to get it. Now if you'd just do one on root/storm celler's. They did not have them in CA and when I move here to TX I see them all over the place. I visited a home who had her's set up as a root celler filled with her summer bounty but it was dressed up Cha Cha style just in case there was a tornado. It was so cheerful and happy, not a place you'd be afraid of spiders! LOL Now every time I'm driving and see one I can't help but wonder what's inside? Smiles, Melody June
