You see, this weekend I have made you proud
There was butter (ohhh there was butter)
Sugar, powdered and regular- in case you were wondering
There was frosting and icing and buttercream
Those might all be the same thing?
There were kid’s sugary cereals (all over my floor)
There was cake
Whoopie Pies
Chocolate bark
Um, truffles
My neighbors might hate me
Happy Sunday Paula! Making you proud over here
xx,
YMC
What’s a weekend without some window shopping? Yet another fun find- these adorable customizable clutches. I think meant for bridesmaid gifts but I would love one for spring outfits. They even have one that you can put a photo of the bridal party in. Too cute right?
Or maybe I’m just wishing for springtime?
Or maybe I should just stop online shopping..
Do I have kids? Well, no
Am I a child? Um, no again
Do I absolutely need this to wear on Valentine’s Day?
Yes
Some of my favorites this week?
Doing two televised cooking segments in one week. Love.
This little flower arrangement I threw together- sometimes all it takes is a few flowers cut down (short stems) in mismatched glasses to make something that brings a smile to my face, and looks cute too!
Getting home after a week spent away
I’m still thinking about this huge slice of vegan chocolate cake I polished off at Oasis Cafe in Salt Lake City. If you are there, go.. just go
Spending the weekend baking- speaking of, what are your favorite kid’s cereals?
Brunching with Friends
Downloading Duncan Sheik’s, “On a High.” Happy Happy
A little trip to Haven’s Kitchen (aka, heaven)
Meeting some lovely ladies at Alt Summit (Camille, Jessie, Melisa, & Meg)
Spending time with Lisa, my twin from the other side of the country. My soul mate, my peanut butter sister, my Salt Lake City partner in crime, possible relative (we are way too alike it’s kind of scary). Wait, is that weird?
What are your weekend plans lovelies?
Lastly, if you could have one Nutella creation- what would it be?
So that’s it, kid’s cereal faves and Nutella
I can’t think of a better way to end a week
Don’t worry, it’s not my birthday… although if you want to start prepping, it’s in July. However, I did get some great travel pieces from Henri Bendel for my birthday and just completely forgot to share them with you. Since this week I seem to be on a traveling kick, after being gone for 7 days.
Bendel’s is iconic in NYC- notorious for their sky high prices and glamorous pieces. So, when they created a more affordable line, Bendel Girl, I got really excited. Don’t get me wrong, there are still expensive things in there- but you can purchase something cute, get that striped bag, and not break your budget
The items I’ve found to be most handy?
*Laundry/Shoe/Lingerie bags- after all, who wants those running shoes floating around in their suitcase? Not me! Same goes for dirty laundry.. and for $48 it’s not too bad!
*Adorable Choose Me Mug- for that morning cup of coffee (or 3) after a long trip
*Wet Bikini Bag- perfect for beachy vacations (and small enough to put in your purse)
*Most used? This laptop case, a bit pricey.. but I’ve used it more than anything else
*I don’t have it, but up for a major splurge? This wheelie suitcase
Also, who knew that a two hour time difference could kick your butt so badly? I might need a nap, or coffee, or both…at the same time
