Rabbit Hill – Handmades & Happy Things by Jenn Tavoletti

January

All of the holidays are tucked away, and the house has been been freshened up with winter whites and fresh plants. I have much anticipation about this new year. I want to make this space a little place where you can come for ideas and only happy inspirations.
I think you all have noticed that I have slowed down in my creating. That will come back as we get Lydia graduated and settled in wherever she wants to be.
For now, I hope you will continue to visit, as I share whatever is stirring in me at the moment. You will still find offerings from time to time, recipes that I love, quiet ponderings, and simple living.
Thank you to all of you, who follow here and on instagram, and for your thoughts and friendships. I'm so excited to share 2019 with you.
Here's to all of us in this New Year!

He remembers walking in through the side door into the kitchen and thinking that it looked like a […]

Winter Joy

Blue skies, 50 degrees, and no snow yet. Although I miss it, it’s hard not to enjoy the sunshine. Even the birds are out there singing like it’s a spring day! I hope you have enjoyed your holiday. We have had so much fun with family and friends, it will be hard to get back […]

1-Hour Vegan Pot Pie

Oh my! You have to try this recipe. It is from the “Minimalist Baker” and it’s the best! Dino’s a carnivore. Lydia’s a vegan. I hover somewhere in between. I hate making separate meals for everyone so I try and create something that meat can be added in later while cooking. It’s not hard to […]

Grandma’s Banana Cake

Last week my mom gave me an old banana cake recipe she had from my Grandma. She actually got it off of my sister who said she’s had it for a while. It was with some old photos my aunt gave her when grandma passed away. As I was making this cake I imagined my […]
