“…if you analyze anything too much, nothing seems too good. Live.”
The postcard says it all. Thank you to PostSecret for sharing this. [...]


Weekend Soiree #14: A game of DOUBLE comment interaction

Saturday, March 29th, 2008

This weekend’s soiree is special because we’re calling it a DOUBLE! It’s double because I didn’t get to post one last weekend, so we’re making up for extra interaction this weekend. It’ll be fun I’m telling you!

Gil Birmingham to play Billy Black in Twilight movie

Friday, March 28th, 2008

I Dream of Peaches ‘n Cream: The Round-Up

Frozen Peach Parfait

Monday, March 24th, 2008

I’m a huge fan of frozen fruit salad, so I thought, why not freeze my peaches and cream? It’s easy to prepare, refreshing and tastes quite indulgent.
Here’s what you do:
1. Pour 1 cup of milk into a pan, and add 200 grams (approx. 2 bars) of grated white chocolate. Warm till the chocolate completely melts. [...]
