Gift of the Day: Southern Plate by Christy Jordan

There is a first time for everything, and today marks our first Gift of the Day which is something you can't buy on TheMonogramMerchant.com!  On Monday, my nephews and I made home-made doughnuts with Christy Jordan's recipe from her blog SouthernPlate.com.  They were delicious, easy to make and we were thrilled with the results.  Naturally, basking in the glow of the doughnut success, I ordered Christy's cookbook, Southern Plate: Classic Comfort Food That Makers Everyone Feel Like Family.
Christy's cookbook is one of the most personal I have ever seen.  She shares her family history and recipes along with intimate stories of the people and occasions who prepared and shared these Southern classics. Christy does such a good job of making it personal that I feel as though I was at one of her Alabama family reunions! This cookbook is full of recipes you'll want to add to your own collection and make a part of your family history.

Stephen Bonanno Monogram Sandals: Our Gift of the Day

Color Your Summer with Stephen Bonanno Monogram Sandals!

We have been in love with these sandals since 2002 and are so excited to add them to our site!  What fun it is for a shoe diva to be the design director of her custom made sandals!  Shown here in our colorful circle is the Emma Classic Monogram Sandal. You choose the leather colors, the monogram style and even the height of the heel.  Emma is also available for little girls and in a sassy 3 inch wedge for ladies.  Tatiana is a newer style of monogram sandal and is just as fabulous!  If you need help deciding on the perfect color combination for you, visit our gallery of inspiration or use our interactive sandal tool to get some great ideas.

Since Stephen Bonanno Monogram Sandals are made just for you by hand, it takes approximately 4-6 weeks for them to be created.  Rush service is available for $25 and that gets you your sandals in about 3 weeks.

To celebrate this fantastic addition to our site we are going to give you FREE RUSH SERVICE on all orders placed by June 30th.  All orders through June 30th will be automatically upgraded with our compliments!
