The highly anticipated cookbook by award-winning "Simple Bites" blogger and urban homesteader. Aimee's rural homesteader upbringing, years working as a professional chef, and everyday life as a busy mom led to the creation of the hugely popular blog "Simple Bite"s. Raising three young children with husband Danny, Aimee traded her tongs and chef whites for a laptop and camera, married her two passions--mothering and cooking--and has since been creating recipes with an emphasis on whole foods for the family table, sharing stories and tips, and inspiring readers to make the family-food connection on the "Simple Bites" blog. "Brown Eggs and Jam Jars" is Aimee's long-awaited cookbook inspired by her urban homesteading through the seasons and the joyous events they bring. Aimee shares more than one hundred recipes from melt-on-your-tongue maple butter tarts to tangy homemade yogurt that have a touch of nostalgia, feature natural ingredients, and boast plenty of love. "Brown Eggs and Jam Jars" will inspire you to connect your family and food right where you are in life--from growing your own tomatoes to making a batch of homemade cookies. Enjoy your urban homestead.
