For the last three years, I have been fortunate enough to be chosen as a blogger for Abrams Books and their dinner party. It brings together bloggers, instagrammers, and others to spread the word about new cookbooks and the like from this publisher.

I’ve had a slow start this year in sharing the books, but am hoping to rectify that over the next week. Let’s just say 2020 hasn’t been the best year for anyone.

We received this journal in our first box. I will admit I’m not a big journaling fan, but I can see the potential for this journal especially if it is used with someone young or old. I can envision answering the questions with a young child and then perhaps bringing it back out years later and see how the answer change. For our older generation, I can see using this as a tool to create dialogue regarding the changes in food preparation, meals, and the like. It could be a great resource for future generations.

While reading through this book, there are some questions that a child couldn’t answer, such as bars where the bartender knows me. A senior may not be able to answer that one either BUT they might have some interesting stories to tell about their youth. I think, in either case, this journal should be used as a starting point and let your imagination run wild from there.

The illustrations in this book are beautiful and complement the topic. I had to check out the website to see what other works have been created. I discovered that she lives in the Netherlands and does work for a lot of larger companies. Annalies has some serious talent.

I am giving away a copy of this book to one follower in the US (shipping costs). Many ways to enter, so don’t delay!
