A seasonal lifestyle blog
A love letter to style, heirloom recipes, creative pursuits, motherhood, and life’s little joys through my camera lens.
Follonica
So, I'm in the middle of having a little date night with myself - got a Halsey mix on Spotify, just made a little apertivi/dinner plate of spinach, lentil penne, roasted tomatoes...and some aged goat cheese and red vino. I went to the gym earlier, took a shower, did an at-home microdermabrasion, and indulged in my favorite charcoal mask. It's been heavenly, albeit a bit quiet. So, since I have all of this free time, I wanted to share something I've been meaning to post...a little Italy re-edit.
Sweet Apple Rose Tortes
The taste of apples baked in brown sugar and cinammon will always remind me of my grandmother's house, where six large apple trees lined her backyard. We'd pick good apples, throw bad ones as far away as possible, and watch for deer to come and eat them. This little batch of delightful rose-shaped tortes was so fun to make, I wanted to share some thoughts behind the process (along with the recipe).
Spring Refresh
This spring seems to be bringing new changes along with it, all good changes that I am welcoming with open arms! It has been a tough winter. TOUGH. Not only has it been cold and snowy, but there have been many times when I've felt so stretched thin. But the promise of some new changes is bringing a renewed sense of hope, and gratefulness. So I wanted to offer a glimpse of some favorite moments so far this spring, including current favorites and goings-on.
#PaperDogCardExchange Calligraphy
It was a fun way to get some pretty snail mail and see beautiful calligraphy from all sorts of talented letters. For my cards, I used pink and red inspiration and vellum. For my envelopes, rich gold and white text with loopy, whimsical calligraphy.
Elegant Custom Grey Suite | Inner and Outer Envelopes
This project was so fun and unique because the bride opted for inner and outer envelopes. I'll be honest, I don't see that a lot as a calligrapher - but having both inner and outer envelopes addressed for your guests is such a classic touch.
