It's Tasha Tudor Day!
I still like to remember dear Tasha and the spirit in which she lived her life, and today is her birthday. She resided in the New England area, from her birth on August 28, 1915 in Boston, Massachusetts to her passing in Marlboro, Vermont on June 18, 2008 nearing the age of 93. She was an American illustrator and author of nearly a hundred children's books; who was highly creative and quite imaginative and who lived a thoroughly authentic and eccentric life.
If you are not familiar with this amazing woman, there's the Tasha Tudor Society that carries on her memory with events and chapters to join, as well as her family's charming tribute website and shop found HERE with a little bit of everything that Tasha found charming. I wrote this blog post at her passing and shared some more pictures and my thoughts at the time.
Raising a cup of tea in honor of Tasha today. Cheers!
