I'm thrilled to share that Mignon Kitchen Co. is now open!
Over the past year, I've become increasingly in love with spending time in the kitchen and giving homemade food to others as gifts. I knew I wanted to make something bigger related to that process, but I wasn't sure what. Then, slowly, the idea of Mignon came together: an online shop that carries goods for the kitchen and pantry, wares for setting a lovely table, and packaging supplies for giving homemade food as gifts.
A lot of things in the shop are small, intended for scaled down recipes. Some are made by hand. One of them is handmade by me. A few of them are especially for Valentine's Day. All of them are things that I love.
You can visit the shop here. I'd love for you to take a peek. If nothing else, I just hope that putting Mignon out there will inspire someone to spend more time in the kitchen. To quote Julia Child, “It's so beautifully arranged on the plate – you know someone's fingers have been all over it.”
It's just lovely, Rachel! Very affordable too. I can't wait to add something to my little kitchen!
