Ombre Cake

Check out this beautiful cake my sister made. She asked me to photograph it, so I couldn't help but take a hundred photos. It's just so pretty.  Oh, and it was YUMMY too!

Macarons

Oh, I've been searching for macarons since we arrived in Italy. I had a few at the airport in Paris. They're so delish! I found these little lovelies in Venice just over the canal down a little street. I'm definitely marking this as a spot to hit every time we go now.

Fun Fact: Everyone has fond memories of picking strawberries in the summer, but did you know that March is the peak of strawberry season for Florida and California, where most of the strawberries found in your grocery stores are grown? So head on over to your local grocery store where the pickings are plentiful! You won't want to wait until summer to try this tasty treat.

Man, oh, man! I've been out of the blogisphere for a hot minute! I'm still not out of the woods yet, but I figured I'd share this fun calendar I made with you to get the year started off right. If you like it, then perhaps I'll keep going for next month. I'm open to suggestions of printables you'd like to have created for you too.

Cheers to a happy new year!

(If you're having trouble getting the calendar, I would be happy to email you the file as well.)

See you soon!
