Tasty Colors

I know that I have been away from my blog for quite a while, but I would love to get back into it. And what better way to start posting again than with this beauty. I love this post from griottes (a talented french blog) via Camille Styles, another blog I adore. Such creative and beautiful photography, inspired by food and color... it just makes me smile. Each color is a little masterpiece... almost too good to eat.

Yum....

I love a good ice cream...especially one like Salty Caramel, which is one of the signature flavors at Jenis, an ice cream shop based in Columbus with locations in central Ohio. I have yet to make down to a shop to try one of their enticing flavors...but that is definitely on my to do list this summer. And I love the packaging and design work created by Meg Russell. Another great perk...they use fresh ingredients from Ohio's countryside.

A cupcake for breakfast.

I love cupcakes...I love unwrapping them....I love how they are your own personal delicacies. And this cupcake just seems perfect...it's like a fancy blueberry muffin. I have been in a baking mood lately...maybe because I have had a little more time on my hands since my internship is up. I made banana bread the other day and now I think I might have to make these cupcakes...I have been looking for a good recipe and this one looks so good. The bad thing about these is that I will be eating them for breakfast (and for every meal after that...)

How sweet it is...

I love this sweet-themed wedding with a lollipops, macaroons, and a peppermint rock candy cake. And I am especially loving the colors...baby blue, red, and yellow....they are so fresh and retro. What's great about this theme is it could easily be applied to a birthday party, picnic, or shower. Check out the rest of these great "wedding themes" at Style Me Pretty...it's a great site for the bridal community or just aspiring designers...and brides (someday), like myself.

Mmmm....

My cousin Meg works as a cake decorator at White Flour Cake Shoppe in Beachwood and thanks to her we celebrated September 29th with this beautiful chocolate cake. (For no reason, but just because surprisingly this cake never sold.) I've always thought that if I wasn't a graphic designer, I would be a baker or a caterer...but I'm pretty sure I would be tempted to eat my homework for breakfast and be 20 pounds heavier.
