Best Free Apron Patterns
This is a collection of the best apron patterns that I have found
located on the web. I am very inspired by the Zakka Japanese handmade movement and most
of the patterns are in that style. I also love Etsy and
Pinterest very much and they have inspired and educated me on all things Zakka and
homemade. I added some Anthropologie inspired apron tutorial
links, so check them out. I am not affiliated with any of the blogs or
websites. I do however check to see that the links are current and are
not spammy in nature.

Mrs Beeton's Book Of Household Management Book Download
I found this book while searching online for random things. It is called Beeton's Book Of Household Management This book is great for history buffs (Downton Abbey Fans) and for anyone interested in old recipes or domestic living. I am including a link to download the ePub and Kindle book.
Published in 1861, Mrs Beeton’s Book of Household Management was a guide to all aspects of running a household in Victorian Britain.
The 2751 entries include tips on how to deal with servants’ pay and children’s health, and above all a wealth of cooking advice, instructions and recipes. It was an immediate bestseller, running to millions of copies within just a few years.
Perhaps surprisingly, author Isabella Beeton was just 21 years old when she started working on the book, and she died young at 28.
The book gives a charming and historically significant insight into Victorian domestic management.
Although its entries have little practical relevance today the name “Mrs Beeton” still has iconic status in Britain: most people recognize it and know its connotations, although very few have actually come into contact with the book itself.
The phrase, “first, catch your hare”, while popularly thought to originate here, was already proverbial when the book was written.
Today’s superstar chefs (especially Delia Smith) might be seen as the direct descendants of Mrs Beeton, who saw as they did the need to provide reassuring advice on culinary matters for the British middle classes, the Industrial Revolution having sealed the demise of traditional rural cooking skills.
