a view from the kitchen / ella requested chocolate cherry, (everyone requests this), cake for her birthday / a pop of neon in winter / liam braving the snow
we’ll we’ve seen a lot of snow and as much as i love it, i’m happy to say that i’ve escaped it for a couple of weeks. we all survived a 3 hour plane ride (more on that next week) and are now settling into shorts, flip flops and the warm sun beating down on our faces. the littles had an extra glimmer in their eyes and spring in their step today which made my heart skip a few beats. and i couldn’t have asked for more this valentines.
+ a few of my faves this week +
01 / i thought i couldn’t love her anymore – but i do.
02 / a lesson in chocolate and i’m now ready to test.
03 / lego lookalikes
04 / how to look like you’ve had your beauty sleep when you haven’t.
05 / it’s like the sartorialist for littles.
06 / do you “binge” watch tv? which shows?
*don’t forget to enter the valentines giveaway!

dude, that piece about chocolate has me ready for some at 10:00 am.
(not that that’s unusual!)
i used to think dark chocolate was gross but now it’s all i eat. and i eat it daily! the darker the better. it’s heavenly.
happy birthday to your sweet girl! xx

thanks… i’m with you….dark chocolate all the way!!!! i’m a little obsessive about the chocolate. i love the way it looks, the way it sounds when you snap it in half or pour it in a metal mixing bowl. the smell is divine and of course the taste – ahhh! xo . t
