Great Bookish Kitchen Gear to Make Meals More Literary

Share

In my opinion, there’s no room of the house that can’t use at least a few bookish items to remind you (and everyone that visits you) of how much you love to read. Whether it’s a tiny tea spoon or a Jane Austen teapot, there’s something for every kind of literature lover to show off their passion in the kitchen.

Maybe you prefer the classic, homey look of a bookworm cookie jar; or you might be more of a modernist, library card serving tray type, but since we’ve all got to eat, chances are you’re in need of at least a few kitchen items. Why not combine the reading and eating and grab some of these book themed kitchen goods to have around as you slice veggies, bake cupcakes, or simply relax with a cup of tea?
