I saw this fortune cookie message taped to the corner of a computer desk top screen at an art museum gift shop. 

It is my all time favorite fortune -even if it wasn't mine. :)

Inspiration

Inspiration. It's a funny word if you think of it too much... especially on pinterest. It seems that all I do lately is get inspired (rather, like the image I see) and then pin. end of story.
I need to do a pinterest challenge and actually make and do things I pin.

Ok, here is my pledge.
THIS WEEK: I will make one pin for every pin I make. Make sense? bahahhaaa.

Anyways, back to inspiration. I'm glad my cousin came to visit a few months ago and inspired me to paint our bedroom wall with breadfruit tree leaves.

I love it.
And thus, had to share it.

Fancy food

I've just been collecting some eye catching food on pinterest.

It's pretty amazing what amount of inspiration one great image holds. I now feel like baking today. 

Makes me want to throw a party, just because.

I love this idea of slicing apples and then dipping and dunking them in toppings. I can never finish the whole apple. A caramel apple toppings bar! Perfect for fall activities coming up. 

 Brownie Bowls!!!

 Satisfy that sweet and salty craving: mini marshmallows dipped in chocolate with a pretzel

Infused water recipes. The mint and strawberry/raspberry looks good.

 

Cotton candy cupcake toppers!

 

Whatever you are doing this weekend, baking or not, have a wonderful one!

Coral, aqua and gray

 These three colors are in my head lately. 

I love the combo they make.

So fresh and happy.

This lovely little magazine, Kinfolk, comes out this Friday. 

I'm excited about it. It's just my cuppa tea (if I drank tea, that is).

Breakfast Birthday Bash

This breakfast birthday party is a great idea from cakies. 

I love the cereal bar, bacon and egg snacks, and syrup jars for the pancakes!

the balloons and lights make it all so festive

 

 

 

What a healthier alternative for a birthday smash cake!

It thought it was all very well put together

and great photos too by Christian Cruz.

Mermaid party

Sand, treasures, shells, treats, pearls, sea glass, and a table runner that resembles a mermaid tail! I really like how this party came together. Very charming and mystical.

Very fun anemone cupcakes
