In the past, I’ve mentioned that I believe the kitchen should not be overlooked when it comes to infusing art into the living space. So a couple of weeks ago I finally framed and added a couple of new items to my kitchen space. Thankfully I have a semi-open kitchen so it never gets steamy [...]

Patch NYC exclusive line at West Elm
I came across Patch NYC a few months back via a rather voracious ‘click session’.

Found it! Czechoslovakian China
I was perusing the pages on the interweb the other day when I occasioned upon the above picture and a write up about the “Irish Knit Aran Wool Tea Cosy Cozy” by etsy store seller Wattery Totteries.

With a bakery like this…who needs thighs?
Seriously, thighs..they are overrated. Who* needs them? Stick things banding about in skinny jeans punctuated with skinny knees (if you’re blessed..).

Illustrated recipes..
Cheese Eggplant by Krysalia I love when recipes are presented in a fun and visual way. Something more than your typical ‘food shots’ and copy. So how jazzed was I when I came across the site ‘recipe look‘. Recipe Look is a site that encourages readers to submit a visual representation of their favourite recipe. [...]

Egg's in a cup..and then your tummy.
I love me some eggs. I don’t quite know why..they are very versatile and taste good in all forms: fried, poached, scrambled…not to mention that you can throw in many a accoutrement and it just enhances the flavour! One morning while watching Emeril..I saw him make ‘eggs in a cup‘. It looked pretty simple so [...]
