Autumn Brekkie

When you wake up on an autumn morning...you wanna be greeted with this...hot coffee and a buttery croissant.


And maybe run into a truck full of baguettes....can you imagine the smell from that truck? Oooooh.....

Lofty thoughts


Maybe not all the furniture...but the huge ass space, high ceiling and double-storey loft is to die for!

Prettiest Salad



I never thought a salad could be this pretty. It's actually prettier than a cupcake!!!

Revamped!

Some really really old movie posters were redesigned by Moxy Creative House. Really really cool, and only $30 each!





Get me there




I don't wanna be where it's cold...I wanna be in floaty, chiffon, silk, light dresses and be by the beach.

Red Velvet Cupcakes with Chocolate Fudge Frosting




What can I say? The kids loved it. The adults gobbled it down in 3 bites. And I'm a happy baker!!!

I'm not a big vodka fan but I say yes to this limited edition Glimmer bottle. I want this to glam up the kitchen!

Cafe dreams


If I ever have a cafe, I will be stealing this idea from a French cafe in paris. Coffee and a side cookie or a biscotti in the shape of a spoon. How cute!!!!

I've been waiting 10 months for this!


Flour Bakery is my favourite favourite bakery/cafe here in Boston. It has perfect cakes and crazy sandwiches and salads. Flour introduced me to Boston Cream Pie and it's my fav cake here and always my first choice when it comes to cravings for cakes. I recently had it as my birthday cake! And for a person who never likes salads, I'm crazy over their chicken salad with avocado and jicama. I lick the plate clean and that never ever happens with me and salads.

So when I heard wind about Flour publishing a cookbook with their recipes, I couldn't wait to get my hands on it. I waited for almost 10 months. And now I can't wait to start baking!

Flower power!

I was admiring these baskets of flowers the other day...


and I received some surprise flowers of my own!!!

Me. BIG. Fan. Of. Animal. Prints.

Like for years now...my first pair of animal print heels were 5 years ago. So you can imagine my glee when they say it's in fashion now! Ok I admit, some furry animal stuff like these aren't really my thing...


But these I love...





And today I purchased an animal print sweater dress that made me a lil nervous because it's not an accessory where it makes one part of your outfit, a dress is like your main thing. And I have a fur vest, a leopard print cropped cardi, a leopard print scarf, you would think I am kinda use to embracing this animal love of mine. I guess I'm nervous because I know I can go overboard sometimes when I am too erm..."into" things. But who cares! So here it is...love love love!

Dinner @ Golden Gate Bridge

Today, at this time, the boy and I were meant to be up in the fluffy clouds, on the way to San Fran. Instead, we are under house bound due to him having the chicken pox. I KNOW. what. are. the. odds.

Anyway, I am disappointed. Mainly because we have been planning this vacation for some quality alone time with each other for over a month now. And I had made 5 restaurant reservations because I am such a pig. Argh!!!! Moving on. San Fran will always be there for us...gotta look on the bright side.

These photos however, brought me back to sighing and yearning for San Fran again...

Full sleeved


A few weeks ago the boy asked if I would mind him getting a full sleeved tattoo. I always thought full sleeves (only 1 side please) are kinda sexy if done right. And this picture proves my point. Without that sleeve this guy probably looks average but with the sleeve it's like HELLO, HOW YOU DOING!

Anyway, no....the boy is not going to get a full sleeved. His tattoo ideas changes once every 2 months so it'll be a while (or never) until we see him inked.

Baby butts


It's been a weekend filled with running errands, nursing a sick boy, cold dreary weather, endless TV watching, sleeping out in the living room and constant checking for pox.....on the flip side, at least I managed to squeeze in a morning yoga session, plenty of fruit snacking, watched "Date Night" which was hilarious, and I managed to make my sick boy smile a lil with a home baked butter cake and a lil gift.

So here're a pair of (random) naked baby bottoms to sum up the weekend!
