The little things...

So Wilton just came out with their new baking liners. I am SO excited, they're so gorgeous! The little things in life eh? I am hoping that their Canadian distributors carry most of them, because I already have my eye on at least 5 of them!

Keep you posted once found & purchased!!

Tuesday's Tune - May 29th, 2012

Shout out to my lovey Mel for her birthday!! Known this gal since preschool, 25 years later, still friends!

Today's tune is one that we used to listen to back in the day, in fact it might have been Mel who introduced it to me. It reminds me of little Melski, because we used to sing it a lot and analyze just exactly who and what the song was directed to. I heard it a couple of days ago in the car, and decided it would be a perfect fit for today's tune.

Cheers!

Short week, Long week.

Well we made it! I know I know, it was a 4 day week, but it felt SO long for some reason! Regardless, it is SUNNY, FRIDAY, and I am excited for the weekend!

I've been planning a Maine trip all week, so my head as been all over the place. As much as I love to plan trips, it's stressful when you have no clue about the area! I think I have landed a pretty sweet place across from the beach in Wells, Maine. I am waiting to hear back from them to confirm the dates, but I would say it's 95% sure that my boyfriend and I will be travelling to Maine mid August! SO excited! I love travelling through new towns, I am in love with Halifax, and was told that I'll fall head over heels for Maine! - Keep ya posted!

Have a great weekend!

Cheers!

Summer Garnishes

Hello! Sorry I've been so MIA lately... the long weekend accompanied by the fantastic weather was result of no new posts! Hope you all enjoyed all that hot sunshine, I can tell Summer is FINALLY on it's way!

Summer definitely reminds me of fresh fruits, and with the Hudson Farmer's Market now open every Thursday, I can't wait to get my hands on some fresh local goods! Lately I have been trying to garnish my cupcakes with fruits, rather than fondant! Equally beautiful, and bursting with fresh flavor, it's a nice change!

Below are two of Les Gâteaux Mignons' new cake flavors! The first is a White Chocolate Cupcake with Chocolate Buttercream, a fresh Raspberry and White Chocolate Shavings. (yum, I know..) The second is a Banana Pecan with Chocolate Chips Cupcake, with Chocolate Buttercream and a dried Banana Chip and lightly dusted with Icing Sugar.

Cheers!

Long Weekend

Well folks, it's Friday! There is fantastic weather ahead for us in the Montreal area! To top it off, it's also long weekend! I cannot wait to get outside and enjoy this sunshine! Hope you all get time to enjoy it as well!


Here is the latest Jenna Marbles video.

Cheers!

Wraps

Hello! I thought I would share with you my new found love, Cupcake Wraps! They're basically Cupcake liners that you apply to the Cupcake after it's been baked. They really glam up the average Cupcake and I think they're so pretty for weddings & all other special events! My personal favorite is Lilac (my favorite color), definitely keeping note of this for if/when I get married one day. Love love love!

Wilton offers these, and many other great designs for Cupcake Wraps, from Kids parties to Easter and much more.

Sunshine!

Finally some sunshine! What a long week it's been without it! I cannot tell you how excited I am to sit in the sun this weekend. I was telling my friends last Sunday as we sat on their balcony sipping sangria, I could literally just sit in the sun all day, (anywhere) and be perfectly content. The sunshine makes me so so happy! So having said that, ENJOY it! Happy Friday! :)

Here's this weeks Jenna Marbles video, couldn't agree more with her!

Cheers!
