  Over the holidays, we acquired this very whimsical and somewhat ironic canvas for our home. We moved in last Spring and our walls have been mostly bare as we took our sweet ol’ time to find the perfect piece to add to our home decor mix (translation: I was too lazy and not particularly motivated).

Valentine’s Day Macaron Projects & Templates

    Say I Love You with Valentine’s Day Macarons In one of my Daily Inspirations post for January, I talked about a semi-cringe-worthy Valentine’s Day card I chose specifically for my grade school crush. It’s so silly that it makes me laugh out loud every time I think about it. Oh, if only I […]

Lavender Earl Grey Easter Bunny Macarons (Template)

Lavender Earl Grey Macarons with that “Easter Speckle” I’ve always loved the speckled Easter egg effect on a macaron and after my Easter Egg macaron tutorial two years ago, I wanted to recreate this effect again but this time, the speckles would be embedded inside of the macaron instead of splattered on top with food […]

Afternoon Tea at Adonia Tea House in Kerrisdale

I’ve never turned down an invite to afternoon tea. For me, tea time invariably brought together everything I adored all in one place. I can always expect a delicious variety of finger foods, exotic teas (perfect because I don’t drink coffee), cute decor, fancy tableware and most importantly the company of good girlfriends. On this occasion, my friend from out […]
