FOOD IS ART

For as long as I can remember, making food look pretty and taste good has been so important to me.
I love when I place a beautiful dish in front of someone and they’re excitement heightens before they even know if it tastes good or not.

Food is colourful, vibrant, and fragrant. It engages so many of the senses and is why I think the world is drawn to its beauty.

Do you like to get creative in the kitchen? Even if it’s something as simple as making myself breakfast in the morning, it is an easy way to foster creativity in my everyday life.

ITS GARAGE SALE SEASON!

Who loves fabric?!

I have always loved sewing and cannot wait to get creative with these beautiful fabrics. I’m thinking some bags with waterproof lining?

I’m getting antsy to start baking cakes again! It’s one of my favorite things to do for my friends. Baking cakes is such a fun way for me to get creative and think outside the box of designs and flavours.

This peanut butter chocolate cake was for my roommates birthday back in the fall. I had the help and inspiration from
Her recipe and design was too good not to make! She gets the credit for this one!
