Foooood

Hello blog... I'm back! However, this is not an outfit post. This is a cooking post. I was flipping through some Food and Wine magazines when I found this delicious looking recipe card and decided that I HAD to make it. It's strawberry season (although they aren't very sweet lately- maybe it's the weird weather?) so I couldn't think of anything better to make.

This is probably the most successful baking experience I've had to date. Makes me wonder why I ever took such a long break from baking and cooking.


The inspiration (isn't it convenient that my nails happen to match the strawberries perfectly?)

Step 1: Make shortbread

Step 2: Make lemon curd filling

ok, this is completely unrelated... but I made this margherita pizza for dinner

Step 3: Assemble strawberry shortcake


Et voila!

Today consisted of good sandwiches, hot weather, and good friends-- here's some pictures

I'm starting to notice a trend here where I'm always posting about food alongside clothes. Hm. But here's some pictures summing up the past fews days (omitting my unsuccessful/totally-worth-it thrifting trip with Doremy <- visit! it's worth it )

Raspberry day

Wow, I am a HORRIBLE blogger, seeing that I haven't posted in weeks... I've been pretty busy lately with SAT school (ugh) and AP summer assignments and I couldn't squeeze in the time to update the blog. But here are a few recent pictures as proof that I haven't forgotten about my blog completely haha

went thrifting again today at this place called "American Thrift." The place was HUGE and I had to contain myself.. I bought a thick, red grandma cardigan as well as a cream colored grandma shirt. I'm a little bit ridiculous so I just might wear the thick cardigan tomorrow (despite 80-90 degree weather... hmm). Anyway, here are some pictures of my outfit today + the crepes I made today.. yum
