There are many moments in time that are fleeting…the day you sat with your daughter in the park as cherry blossom petals rained down on you in a pink flurry…the time you watched your husband get in his car and smiled at how handsome he really is…the day you realized what you wanted to be when you grew up. Despite our efforts to capture everything on film, life has a way of surprising you when you’re not exactly camera ready. For me, days and years cooking in the kitchen with my mom and sister are moments I can only remember. My mom - a great cook to be sure - brought us up to appreciate the art of creating good food. Now, as adults, when the three of us are together – watch out because the sparks do fly! The thing that struck me first about this Bird Measuring Spoon Set was its unabashed nostalgia. The happy (and let’s face it) adorable birds perched upon big, heavy, sturdy spoons seems to sum up what everyone loves most about the kitchen…The cheerful comfort it always brings, and the flighty joy you feel when a good meal is about to be served. This spoon set sums up years and years of pies, and pot roasts, and steaming bowls of spaghetti, and cupcakes and puddings.

As a gift, what could be better? I love the idea of bringing in my own family heirloom. A piece that represents what I’ve learned from my Mom and sister, and what I can’t wait to pass on to my own children…that being in the kitchen can make you happy as a bird. The deets: - Hand cast in lead-free pewter; copper display rack included. - Includes, Tablespoon, Teaspoon, ½ teaspoon and ¼ teaspoon. - Handmade in the USA, using traditional metal-smithing techniques and individually cast parts. - Adorably packaged in a kraft gift box - Destined to be handed down for generations. Just like your grandmother’s best recipes.
