Long and Short Rolling Pin
The Carpenter has been busy making some beautiful French Rolling Pins. I LOVE LOVE mine. I find they are much easier than the handle style pins. So, I followed Julia Child’s example and threw my old handled rolling pin away.
I love the figured wood pattern. The pictures don’t do the shimmering grain justice.

Hope you are all enjoying these last days of winter. I love the small gardening break but I also love the planning and dreaming that comes in this season.
