lunching & tweeting

hi!

had a wonderful lunch today

salmon & fresh mushrooms

tonight, i'm doing some more shopping,
decided to fly in track pants,
i need ones that are comfy,
but also a tad stylish,
that should be a long search,
but when it comes to shopping,
the longer,
the better ;)

also.
i got twitter,

so...

tweet me?

love,

this week, I fell in love with...

1. cake is amazing

cake with ruffles is a world wonder

pink cake with ruffles ...well that leaves me speecheless

& gives my sweet tooth a field day :)

2. that kitchen.
its so photogenic and perfect,
i might feel guilty actually cooking
and baking in it,
i think i'd just spend all day,
taking pictures of it.

3. the song la pluie du ciel by chantal goya

lots of air kisses,

sugar rush

just looking at these photos

makes me yearn something delicious

the colours are so sweet

so fun!

they make me want to run away

to paris

to spend all day

running around in my chic vêtements,

luncing on delicious crêpes,

while everyone breaks out into song & dance

sigh

that's what a good set of photos does to me ;)

gros bisous,

my little pastry shop

one day,
i'll run away

i'll open you
a little shop

a sweet
pastry shop

i'll lock myself in
& ask you
to throw away the key

in my shop
i'll have an endless supply
of everything i need
to make all the sweets
that my little heart
(& sweet tooth)
desires

something you LOVE

There are those rare moments
when you discover that two things that you like have combined
to create something you LOVE
/

jelly shots (jell-o + alcohol = yum!)
smarties ice cream
mac and cheese
/

the newest addition to my list are pretzel croissants
delicious salty pretzels
warm flaky croissants
combined?
revolutionary!
/

they are currently sold in New York where they have gained a cult following
fingers crossed that bakeries in toronto catch on
for now you can drool over the picture
/

hope you are having fun buying and wrapping, and maybe rewrapping

Left Handed History of the World

by ed wright
i'm a leftie and so are some pretty amazing people.

wishing you a lazy monday filled with chapters, pages, and bookmarks,

on Friday we had a major snow storm
how major? 30 centimetres major.
meteorologists sounded stern and cautious / children rushing to the nearest snowy hill sounded the opposite.

after helping to decorate the tree, I edited analyst reports all day,
listening to my favourite bands cover Christmas carols.
edit edit. groove groove. repeat

finished my work around dusk.
realized how much I love scenic snowy nights.
lindt chocolate + warm milk = hot chocolate without leaving the house
toasted a bagel. mixed pepper and sun dried tomatoes with cream cheese.
crunchy yum.

Turned on fireplace & television.
popped in Home Alone.
holiday classic
perfect.

safe travels and happy holidays,
