Susan Branch’s first cook book was “Heart of the Home” and once I bought it I was hooked.  Not only are there interesting recipes and stories in her books but the illustrations, done by Susan herself are charming and beautiful… they almost make me want to get out my colored pencils… almost. 

  Here are a few of the 13 books she’s written and illustrated.  But that’s not all Susan Branch has to offer. 

I enjoy her stickers and stamps so I can be artistic and clever too (these are only a miniscule sampling).   Her blank calendar books make great journals.

                           

I can’t begin to list all the merchandise Susan Branch has to offer so go check out her website and see for yourself how talented she is and how inspiring her things are.  

 Susan Branch used to live year round on Martha’s Vineyard.  Now she lives most of the year in California where she has opened a store in Arroyo Grande which is just south of San Luis Obispo… I wonder if she’d ever have a branch (groan) on MV some day !
