happy valentine's day!

So it's not a "legit" holiday or whatever, but these cookies would be so cute for V-Day or any day. I'm guessing the handwritten notes are printed on those edible sheets. And at $65 for 18 cookies, I have a sneaking suspicion they taste as good as they look.

sold!

Sold my first item ever in my Etsy shop.

Goodbye, Emile Henry Butter Pot! It was nice knowing you.

sometimes...

...nothing hits the spot like take-out pizza. So good on a lazy, cold winter night.

Don't judge.

happy new year's eve!

Cheers to the end of 2009. What a year. Looking forward to 2010!!!

Nothing like a refreshing beverage to ring in the new year...how about trying Michael Bauer's Tangerine Kiss Cocktail?

Tangerine Kiss

1 liter Campari

1 liter Meyer lemon (or other citrus-flavored) vodka

1 gallon tangerine juice

Combine the three ingredients in a punch bowl, float some lemon and tangerine slices on top and serve.

Serves...20? or 2, I won't judge.

new year's resolution:

To learn how to sew. So that I can make this adorable apron (or one like it):

vintage oven

Check out that beauty. The whole kitchen is inspiring.

Like a breath of fresh air.

merry christmas!

Hope you have a fantastic Christmas and that your trees are decorated with ornaments as cute as these.
