FLOUR (the recipe book!!!)

ohmygoodnessohmygoodness!

Boy oh boy did I hear the BEST news ever while driving home from work today. I was just informed (courtesy of NPR, my new go-to radio station) that the owner of FLOUR (THE BEST BAKERY in the ENTIRE WORLD), Joanne Chang, has just written and published a new cookbook.

Best news of your life, right?? Right??!

You must click here to read the interview with the author AND get a tasty recipe for savory cheddar scallion scones. Oh my.

Flour, located in the South End (and also Fort Point and Central Square) will please your taste buds like no other. They have incredibly delicious desserts/breakfast treats and make a mean BLT (my favorite!). If you live in Boston and you have not been, GO! Then you can buy the recipe book and make their famous banana bread every day if you please. Which is probably what I am going to do.

YAY!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MEGSIE!!!!!

Happy Birthday to my beautiful sister!

The best and most terrific person in the world!!!

LOVE YOU MEGS.

Forever and always and ever and ever.

XOXO.

FALL SALE

Ah yes, my favorite time of year.

Fall sale at J.Crew. Here are some of my favorites…

I think this tissue turtle neck would looks great with light khaki corduroys. And a simple long gold necklace. A practical piece for fall.

I have this sweater in periwinkle and it is SO soft and SO comfortable. Looks like a sweatshirt but is actually a sweater!

Well aren’t these earrings just fancy pants! So cute for a night out to dinner!

Meg has this sweater. SUPER cool. I love the side zip and the color. Very hip and stylish. Looks great with black ankle pants and flats!

I’m a sucker for colorful cords and these are so totally cute for fall! I think they’d look so cute with an ivory sweater or a navy blue shirt. ADORE!

And last, but certainly not least, I LOVE these flats. A girl can never have too many black flats. I love the toe on these too… a little different than your average ballet shoe, but still 100% classic.

Happy shopping!

spice up your life.


Don’t you think these bowls are just the cream of the crop? I think they’re pretty snazzy. What a perfectly adorable addition they would be to my kitchen. Someday I hope to have an all white kitchen with glass cabinets so you can see all my colorful dishes and bowls.

These bowls, from anthropologie obviously, would just about brighten anyone’s morning. Pour your milk and Corn Pops into a bowl like this and you’d be starting your day on top of the world. MMmm. Wouldn’t that be nice.
