I'm back!

The sun is shining, I have exposed my almost translucent legs.. Summer is coming!
With the weather warming, it's probably the wrong time to develop a sudden obsession with white (due to all the tan and bronzer I will be wearing to combat my Casper syndrome). But I just can't get enough of WHITE..


That light shade.

Those floorboards & that coffee table!


This entire room.


Those walls.


The coffee table! Amazing.


Those light fixtures & ceiling.

Pops of colour don't hurt either :)

M.I.A

With the packing and cleaning and attempting to sort my life before the big move, I have not been posting anything! Bad form.
But I find it's mainly due to my current state of unemployment! Which by the way, is oh so good! Second week in and I honestly don't know how I will go back to work in a couple of weeks..


These walls and ceiling. here.



Absolutely EVERYTHING in the above two images. The rustic dining table, the dark floors contrasting against the stark whiteness of the space, THE LIGHT FEATURE! here.

This is actually amazing! Don't think I would colour co-ordinate mine though, but still an absolutely brilliant idea.

Frozen Berry Cheesecake

POSTED ON: @ 12:02 | 0 comments

Seriously, how good does this look! 
I am not much of a baker, actually I'm no baker at all. I have dabbled in the art a total of two times.
I think I will make it a third with this amazing recipe :) 



Taken from the lovely Creature Comforts blog..

The Crust: Ginger Snap Pecan 
Preheat oven to 300 F. Meanwhile, place butter into a small saucepan on the stove top, and melt on low heat. Once your oven is heated, pour the pecans onto a metal baking sheet and place on the center rack inside. Toast for approximately 5 minutes until pecans smell fragrant, stir often with a wooden spoon. 
Pecans burn easily, so it is best to err on the side of taking them out too soon, rather than burn them. Allow nuts to cool. Grind your cookies in a food processor until you have fine crumbs. Pour crumbs into a medium mixing bowl and stir in sugar and a small pinch of sea salt. 
Grind cooled pecans in food processor until they are very fine. Do not over-grind or they will begin to turn into nut butter. Add nuts into the cookie crumb mixture and stir well. 
Pour melted butter into crust mixture, and stir well with a fork until clumps form. If the mixture is too dry, you can add in additional melted butter. Pour crust mixture into a fluted pie dish and press down until it covers the bottom and sides of the dish. Place in the refrigerator to cool, and then fill with your cheesecake filling!


The Cheesecake Filling
Beat cream cheese and sugar in a large bowl with mixer until well blended. Whisk in remaining ingrediants; pour over crust.
Freeze for 4 hours or until firm. Let stand at room temperature for 15 minutes to soften before serving. Enjoy :)

Letterpress Invitations

POSTED ON: Monday, 23 July 2012 @ 13:11 | 0 comments

A few weeks ago I received an invitation to a wedding. Before I had even opened the Letterpress envelope, I immediately started judging. "Why would anyone go to this much effort for an invitation. Why would they spend a fortune. They have tried too hard.."
It wasn't a great first impression!
...
I am now obsessed.
These are obviously A LOT better than the one I received, the last one is amazing!
