sticking with the same ol' recipe is hard for me to do at times


I'm trying to make a different type of macaron for you who come to the barn sale this May

i should have known not to mix up my recipe...the new ones didn't turn out...

trial and error

isn't our life so much like that?? trial and error

whatever you do...do not give up on yourself...

each of us are strong....able to make our own decisions...

do not be afraid of trying somethng new
who cares if it fails!  you tried....
learn from it.......move on.......

and know when to go back to the way it worked

I don't know about you...but when I am in the kitchen, I learn so much about everything, inspiration comes, and that note pad on my fridge is taken off quite frequently to jot down rice and beans amongst doodles and ideas

one of those days happened a bit ago, and I'm working behind the scenes to make my online journal a bit more fun and colorful......such as my life

here's my color palette I'm choosing for not only my bakery and the space I'm sharing with my sister, but also for the blog here (with added black accents)


life is oh so serious lately.....so so serious....and though I too am a serious person, the children need me to be cheerful.....heck...I need to be cheerful through "all this"

Can't wait to share it all with you!

xo + colorful blessings,

  2. And me. I can't wait to see it!

    I need color in this moment.... little Giovanni is ill, high very high temperature, my partner is ill too, my mum is ill....well....wow!
    We have slept I think 3 hours tonight and little boy was crying... oh, dear....its the second night like that. And since mum and Denny work with me and my dad, they're missing here and...well...gotta go back to work now!

    Those macarons look a lot like italian "Baci di Dama"...mi favourite...would like to have one now.

    Hugs

  6. Love those colors! - For far too long in my life, I stayed with the 'safe' things...Boring...Lately I have been doing some risky things, only in the kitchen, of course, hahahaha! xo

  8. I'm looking forward to seeing you new changes. I always play it safe but get so inspired by changes that others make. I should learn to not play it safe but it seems to bring me the most peace.

    I love new colors you've chosen...
