Creators Block....

Hey Bloggers!

I miss you all! Even thought I've been traveling and working hard. I can't lie I've had Creators Block, its like writers block but for crafty people. Its awful!!!!!!! Believe me I Love bloggin' but with my job consuming my time its been hard to get away even in my head. But today on my walk to the bus station I felt it again! I saw inspiration all around me today and I felt it was time to write AGAIN!

Have any of you felt this way before? Or am I just crazy...lol

Here is the inspiration I saw:

Also check out the pictures I took while traveling to Orlando this past week. Its the MAGIC KINGDOM! I swear you go there and you just feel like a kid again. :-)


Its even better at night...

XOXO

Desserts and drinks

The past week was really nice. On Thursday my co-worker and I took a cupcake class at Butter Lane in NYC http://www.butterlane.com . The class was about 2 hours; it was fun, hands on and learned a lot from the class especially how to keep clean while baking. Another blogger by the link name of Serious eats in the class and she shared the tips to cupcakes check it out here.



After trying to find an excuse to make desserts I decided to have a small desserts, drinks and game night at my place with a couple of my friends (15peeps). It was a good time because I made my homemade desserts and everyone had fun.





Sweetz:

Chocolate on Chocolate delight

Vanilla cupcake with cream cheese frosting

Vanilla cupcake with strawberry frosting (made with homemade Jam)

Marshmallow with white Chocolate toped with pop rocks

Coconut macaroons toped with Natella

And colorful bubble gum (from Economy Candy store in NYC)



It came out so cute... many of my friend were impressed.

Can you tell I’m going dessert crazy!


As I was reading my favorite bloggers a beautiful mess post a couple of days ago, she wanted us to take 4 simple goals for our daily life that will make our lives richer and happier on a daily basis. I decided to take part in the fun as many others did, here are my goals.

1. Before I go to bed,think of the positive things I did that day.

2. View at least one blog a day and leave a comment.

3. Write down my ideas/plans.

4. Kiss my boyfriend goodnight everynight.
