I got out a little late, and it was cloudy. But, I did see one meteor. It was bigger and brighter than any I've seen, and stretched across the sky. I can't stop thinking about it!

Ah! I definitely gravitate towards any treat that has pastry cream tucked inside of it! And, it's easily my favorite thing to make, too. I love using vanilla beans! I'm such a sucker for those tiny flecks of goodness!

I absolutely LOVE them! I designed up my own, and use them for recipes I find online. The recipes must be tested and loved before they make their way to a card. I love picking through them when I need inspiration for a meal!

I absolutely LOVE receiving magazines. I like Lucky Peach, it's growing on me. The stickers were my favorite part. haha

Kinfolk is definitely my favorite these days. I found a print version of Volume 1 at a used book store for $2! I have the Volume 2 iPad app, and it is AMAZING!

I made a bûche de Noël for the first time! It was the most fun, chaotic and DELICIOUS holiday treat I've ever tackled! I have to share a link, because I'm proud of that little log:

Wow. Completely beautiful, and I just fell in love with these winter months even more. I didn't even think that was possible!

Ah! How crazy! This looks like a picture of my son's room! Except that corner is lacking something as wonderful as a lingerie chest! But the crib, the window - it's the same. What a perfect solution...now to just find one that's not super expensive! I am on the hunt!
