Kimmy is obsessed with setting the table. It’s no surprise then that she fell head-over-heels in love with Sara Smedley’s cloth table napkins bedecked in subtle, artistic designs. An easy accent to any dining room! You can even look divine while preparing the meal thanks to Sara’s line of butcher aprons. Julia Child wore a similar style apron and wrote, “its a working apron, not a dainty thing. ‘Dainty’ doesn’t look professional in the kitchen.” But as Sara points out, Julia wore some pretty amazing printed blouses to complement her denim aprons and that’s where her prints come in.
ENVIABLE PERK: All Sara Smedley designs are hand-silkscreened with water-based ink.
This is indeed art you can wipe your hands on!
GIVEAWAY ALERT: Sara Smedley is giving away a set of 2 cotton table napkins in her signature “Stoplight” design. To enter, comment on this post and tell us about your signature dish in the kitchen. Ash is known for her delish lasagna, and Kimmy makes a mean sausage stuffing for Thanksgiving.

I like to think of my signature dish as tomato pie, or new england clam chowder, but when it comes to any gathering involving kids, it appears to be homemade mac and cheese
My specialty is eggplan parm – made it for dinner last night, and the leftovers are already calling my name – and it’s only 7am! Love these napkins!!
My specialty is chicken and dumplings – so yummy.
I guess our signature dish would be a black bean chili. Thanks for the wonderful giveaway
I am a follower. Thanks
I grill a wonderful marinaded flank steak.

My siganture dish is a warm, buttermilk apple pie. It’s creamy inside with big apple chunks and a crumbly streusel topping. This is not part of the recipe, but I poke holes in the top and pour in a little rum and brown sugar. Then I make a homemade bourbon whipped cream with dark brown sugar, cream and bourbon for those who want to top it off. Always a hit.
mac n’ cheese!!
I make some pretty serious chocolate chip cookies.
my kids probably love my chickin southwest chili…but for my husband is hands down his shrimp alfredo…
Among my friends, I am known for cooking an unforgettable Farinata, an Italian dish made with chick pea flour and usually eaten before pizza
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Farinata
Oh I have so many…but my most recent has got to be a belly filling white bean and kale soup. Perfect for when the weather turns cold and the winds are a-blowin’.
I love to cook so I have lots of dishes but the people at work like my bean dip. It’s vegetarian and delightful!!!
I make a great cajun chicken alfredo!
I would love to be included. I’d say my best dish is Mac N Cheese.
Weirdly enough, my bacon cupcakes have been requested– a friend challenged me to make ‘breakfast dessert’, I found a recipe, and ended up serving them at my sister’s wedding.
Oooh! I come from the pacific northwest. So I LOVE Salmon. When I moved in with my boyfriend (now husband) we started cooking pesto salmon whenever salmon was on sale. Italian (especially pesto) is my husbands favorite. So the combination of the salmon and fresh basil pesto (with some sliced lemon) makes for a dish that is a beautiful representation of us and it’s delicious!
pasta salads
These days my best dish is Nacho Pizza. I add salsa to the sauce, brown some ground beef with taco spices, slice tomatoes, bell peppers, pickled hot peppers, jalepeno, green onions, and either olives or fresh cilantro depending who’s eating, and top with mozza and cheddar. Its pretty awesome!
Great giveaway! These would be great for fancy dinners at home for me and my fiance
My signature dish is homemade chicken pot pie! Yum!

Everyone comes running when I make buffalo sauce with chicken tenders or wings. My brother will come from an hour and a half away, if I mention that i am cooking them.
My signature dish has to be a dish I took from Racheal Ray and modified a tiny bit for our family. Bacon Pasta we call it. It’s pasta with bacon in the pasta sauce instead of gr. beef. Yummy!

I make a thai pizza that is pretty awesome! Homemade dough and everything!
I don’t really have a signature dish, however I think that a cream cheese cake is what everybody would think about me because I’m the only one in my family and in my husband family who do that! ;o)
My favourite at the moment is canneloni with gorgonzola and walnuts. I can never tire of it!
I make this yummy honey mustard curry sauce with chicken. So tasty!
I’ve come to replicate this awesome thai dish from the dive restaurant down the street. It’s a whole load of thai basil, some chilies and a bit of protein (ie chicken, tofu, whatever!) and a delicious sauce. With a bit of brown rice, this has definitely become a favorite!
My “dish” is the biggest, fattest, BEST enchiladas ever. My family calls them the “gut busters!”
I don’t have a signature dish (I’ve never enjoyed cooking and was fortunate enough to marry a man who does!) but my husband can make THE best steak and veggies on the grill.
Actually, I’m known for making my famous Oreo balls…they are to die for.
