The Culinary Adventures of Two Ex-Party Girls
Turned Domestic Divas

We are Wisconsin Born-and-Raised girls who love cheese, wine (and vodka), cooking, turning everyday items into cute stuff, our sassy dog, our new city (holla San Diego) and being real people (we are currently in our sophomore year of real life, it's going great, thanks for asking.) Our favorite colors are navy and pink, our favorite food is chicken and avocados, and we speak Jersey Shore.

Vintage Cookbook Wall...Antique store treasure hunting

(Dieter and Mairz in the kitchen)



"Sunday Funday" used to mean waking up at noon, going to get breakfast, and spending the day drinking... anything and everything. Now, "Sunday Funday" means waking up at 7:00 AM, walking to brunch, and spending the day in Ocean Beach shopping for antiques. (Well... this isn't completely true, if there is football on we revert back to the good ol' boozin' sunday.)

This week, we found some awesome/hilarious cookbooks from the 50's and 60's. We LOVED the covers, and Dieter came up with the idea to buy a bunch of them and frame them for our big blank yellow kitchen wall!

First thing, we found our favorite 8 pictures and threw them in some nice $2.00 Ikea frames. Then,  we figured out the design we wanted on the floor. 





After some serious discussion (a solid two, maybe three minutes) we decided on a design we liked and hung um' up!  (we threw in some shelving as well... we still need some cute somethin' somethins' for them, the wine glass is not permanent. )
