    Best Ever Brownies

    I sometimes think of this blog as a recipe book of sorts; a place where I photograph and write down each of my favorite recipes, and detail why they’re my favorite. It’s true! Whenever I discover a brilliant new recipe or want to remember a good ol’ favorite, this is where they go. And now, […]

    Picnic Plaza

    Yesterday was so beautiful, with a bright blue sky and a refreshing breeze, that we decided to make a simple supper, pack it up and picnic on a nearby dock. With people sailing, taking walks, and dipping their toes in the water, it felt like the middle of July. Here’s to making the most of […]

    Mermaid Appeal

    Today was full of a bunch of happy little things that added up; I got a mani-pedi, read a magazine by the pool, bought some new makeup, and made pastel pink cookies. While the weather’s still nice and sunny, and we’re still enjoying summery fruits and vegetables, there’s already a slight breeze that’s begun to […]

    Day in NYC

    After having planned this for a while, me and my mom took a day off and spent some time together in New York City. We did all the things we never have time to do; we went leisure shopping for fall, sat down and ordered drinks in Starbucks, walked into a vintage jewelry shop, bought […]

    Basil and Lime Burgers with Parsley-Paprika Guacamole

    There are many good herb-infused burger recipes out there, but I haven’t yet found one that really hits the spot for me. For a recent family barbecue, I decided to make my own, and the results were so delicious that they were finished in no time, with the popular consensus being that this recipe yielded light, […]

    European Citrus Tart with Candied Lemon Slices

    By now, you probably already know about my slight obsession with lemon flavored desserts, having already featured lemon bars and lemon peach pancake stacks. What’s different about this tart though, is that the filling isn’t a cream, or even a curd. The filling is a custard. While I’m not a huge fan of custards, this one goes […]

    To-Do List: Bright Nail Colors

    Having accomplished the first thing on the summer to-do list (fruit and pastry cream tart), it was time to get started on the next project. I’d been looking for some bright, dramatic nail colors to add to my collection, that would add a little zip to my summer wardrobe. I found two perfect colors from Essie, […]
