Sugar Bliss

When I got home from work this afternoon, this is what was waiting for me on the kitchen counter top. I jumped for joy!

 

There they were...... 6 tiny pretty mini cupcakes in a brown box.  But I couldn't resist, and ate one before taking the pictures to show you. So now a red velvet cupcake is truly my tummy's eatable joy.

Sugar Bliss is one of my favorite cupcake stores in Chicago. They have the most delicious strawberry cupcake I ever had. My wonderful, handsome, super-special boyfriend surely knows that.

These adorable cupcakes really make my day. Aww.....  you are the sweetest cupcake ever!!

Sarah Cihat :: Dirt

Happy June, everyone. I first saw Sara Cihat's Rehabilitated Dishware years ago, I have been smitten ever since. Subsequently, Dirt, her porcelain collection, has been added to her portfolio. I think they are so comely. And I can't stop picturing myself on the patio reading book and sipping tea out of these pretty cups. 

Summertime cocktail :: Summer Bliss

I hope you all had a wonderful memorial day weekend. Finally it feels like summer here in Chicago. It's time to head out to the beach or hang out by the pool and sip a cold summer beverage.

Even thought I don't like drinking, I somehow find myself enjoying creating new cocktails for my friends to try. And they seem to love them. I like the pretty color of Hpnotiq and I love drinking lemony refreshment on a hot day. The combination of these two are perfect for my new drink. Hence, my summer cocktail is born....

Lovely Palette: Spring color

Spring is finally here. I love when there are buds on trees. Grass changes from brown to green. The air is getting warmer every day. Beautiful flowers awake from their winter sleep. 

These are few items that I would love to have to add lovely Spring color in my kitchen.
