2009 Bountiful Basket
And now for the basket…

This is the 2009 Bountiful Basket that I had made to celebrate Southern Plate’s one year anniversary.
It is entirely handmade by the American Traditions Basket Company in Canal Fulton, Ohio from Hard Maple trees that are harvested in Ohio, Kentucky, and Indiana.

It has a custom engraved brass plate attached that I designed.
Comes with a handmade, machine washable liner and plastic protector and features two leather handles.

And has a special “cottage style” weave of cranberry and off white.
I chose cranberry because it reads red and would also be great for decorating for Christmas, Valentine’s, and Fourth of July.
This is in addition to having on your dinner table filled with rolls on a daily basis!
And each comes with a lifetime warranty.

This basket measures 11″ x 8.25″ x 5.5″ and is the perfect size for filling with fresh baked biscuits, storing your apples, or any number of uses around the house.
Each year I am going to have another basket made exclusively for Southern Plate. They will all match this color scheme but be different sizes and styles and have a different name as their part of the series.
I thought I’d offer you the 2009 Bountiful Basket, first in the series, in case any of you would like to have one as well. Please note that this is not a hard sell, I just wanted to offer it because I really love mine! These baskets may only be ordered during the month of August, 2009. I will turn in the orders and have them all made at the end of the month. You should receive them the first part of October.
For this first one, we’re also doing something special. Myself, My Mother, and My Grandmother (three generations) are going to sign the bottom of each basket. This is the only one we are going to do this for.
This basket is made better than any other I have ever seen, and I’ve been collecting baskets for a while now.
If you are a basket person, I know you’ll enjoy it.

The basket is beautiful. I always admire people’s talent on weaving baskets.
My favorite one is a grass basket from Charleston S.C. from a family vacation over 20 years ago. I have the picture of the lady who made it.
Reminds me..I need to find my pine needle weaving book.
Have a great day.

What a beautiful, classic basket. I live just 25 miles from Canal Fulton and our area in general produces beautiful baskets, especially the Amish. Also very reasonably priced compared to some I have seen around here! I’ll have to recycle a few more cans so I can get one!
Looking at that basket makes me want to sit down with my family and enjoy a home cooked meal, complete with a bread basket. Simply lovely!
What a beauty!
I can just see this setting on top of my kitchen shelf.
I spend hours looking through your recipes, it’s so easy to loose track of time this way and I enjoy the time spent, I have learned so much plus printed and made many of your recipes, I Thank You so much.

The basket is beautiful and I can tell you put a lot of thought into choosing it. Canal Fulton, Ohio is not so far from my hometown. We also have the world renownwd Longaberger Basket Company in Dresden, Ohio. Their business headquarters is featured in a building that looks like a basket.
What a beautiful basket, I’d love to win and own one, Congratulations on your one year anniversary.,thank you for all your recipes,I love reading about you family.
This is a beautiful basket. It looks to be well made and not in the least bit “flimsy” like some I have seen lately. I’ve been looking at baskets lately for my shelving to keep things neat but don’t want just anything.
This basket would be perfect for a dining table for so many things. I would of course, love to win it.
Congratulations on your first year. Can you believe its been a year already?
This basket is GORGEOUS Christy, thanks for the chance to win one! I love Southern Plate and look forward to reading each new post. Keep up the good work!

This basket is gorgeous. I believe anyone would be happy to have it. I love your newsletters and your pecan pie muffins. They are a hit at my house.
What a beautiful design! Thanks for offering this basket in a giveaway! I would cherish it forever!

I appreciate your enthusiasm and the always look forward to your e-mail.
Keep up the great work you have done and I will continue to check in on how you and your family are doing

Congratualations on your first year with Southern Plate and your 11th year wedding anniversaries. My 22 wedding anniversary was 8/8. (same as yours)
Only we forgot ours. LOL I don’t know how it happened. I guess sometimes life just goes by so fast you miss a stop here and there. My husband and I had a big laugh about it this afternoon. (yep, didn’t remember till around 3 o’clock.)
I love your website and I look forward to reading about you and your family and all of your great recipes.
Love the beautiful basket! Congrat’s on your first anniversary. Reading your postings has become a daily pleasure for me!

I love your website……happy 1st…..beautiful basket!
Thank you–so darling! Can’t wait to start the collection with baskets that are thoughtfully chosen for all our daily doin’s. Congratulations on a year. My kids are headed back to college tomorrow–chocolate cobbler tonight!
This is a darling basket, and looks like a useful size, as well. I particulary love picnic baskets, and ones with the little tables in them to hold layers of things.
Very Tastefully done ! Beautiful basket and I love the color.
What a fantastic idea! It is a beautiful basket. Thanks as always for the fabulous site.
I am from Bountiful (the city), love everything “Bountiful” and am so glad you named your home “Bountiful.” I can’t think of anything nicer than a Bountiful Basket
It is beautiful.
Ahh I hope that I win this basket because I am home sick
.. Love it so nice..
it is simply beautiful. It would be a wonderful way to start collecting something that would remind me of the person who finally helped me learn to cook!
A beautiful basket! Baskets surely help make a house a home.
I stumbled onto your site while “blog jumping” and I just love it. I have been living in Las Vegas for 9 years now after growing up in Alabama (Cullman to be exact, I am sure you have heard of it! lol), I really miss Southern cooking, Southern stories and I love reading your southern talk! You sound just like me and my family. Not sure which team you root for on Saturdays in the fall, but that basket will look really good nestled among all my Alabama Crimson Tide collectibles! I have your site bookmarked and look forward to seeing your site everyday from now on. Thank you for bringing me a little piece of my home all the way out her in Vegas!
Happy 1st Anniversary and many more!!! Your site is just great and I keep up with you on it often. Have printed many of your recipes and I really like the Chocolate Gravy Mix Christmas gifts and tags. I’m sure my daughters-in-law will like this for the teachers of our grandchildren. It is NOT too early to be thinking of Christmas love that will be here before we can get it together! You are crafty, witty and a great cook and a great hostess. What more could we your waiting audience need?!! Thanks! Betty S.
That is a beautiful basket!!! I sure would be proud to own it!!
MARVELOUS! What a wonderful idea!
What a beautiful basket. It would look lovely in my kitchen.
Hi Cristy, I would LOVE to win this basket. It is beautiful! I HAD a very nice floor basket but my husband tripped on it and now parts are sticking out all over the place. It WAS a pretty basket.
Thank you for the opportunity to win one – someone will be very lucky to have won this.
Sorry I misspelled your name Christy!
I LOVE your website and your recipes! I only found you recently but I am really enjoying reading your everything and trying your recipes! Congratulations on your anniversary!

Love the basket!
Love the basket!
What a great basket. I love the color scheme you chose.
Looking forward to seeing more of your recipes with the holiday time coming along. Even tho I cook for 2 I do enjoy the change of menu. I usually make full recipes and freeze the left-overs which sometimes are better. Anyway the basket is lovely and sure would love to have it. Thanks for all your work.
Oooh, late to the party, so I missed out on the opportunity to order one. Lovely basket, great way to start my collection! I’ll be sure and keep an eye out for next years!
Love your blog, Christy! I live in Virginia, which is technically considered the South. Sooo not the case most of the time! You make me feel closer to home! Keep up the great work!
I wish I had known about Southern Plate back in August – I LOVE this basket! It would be so cute in my red and white kitchen. I love your site and your fantastic family recipes. Thank you so much for doing what you do!
