Have a good Sunday !

Summer, and above all august, is the high season for me at work and I'm currently working 7 days a week, from 10 a.m to 9 p.m. No need to say that even if I still have a lot of ideas for DIYs and food recipes it's hard to bring them into life at the moment.
Anyway, I am doing by best to keep that Sunday moment quite regular (even if I miss last week one) as  it's your favorite post (and mine too).

I hope you are all having a wonderful summer time !

Have a good Sunday !

It feels like its the monsoon here, I'm expected to stumbled onto Noe and its arch every seconds and I'm more than excited about beeing in Paris soon to find some sun !
Meanwhile I am baking cornbread that I ate with tones of Nutella (which totally contrast with my food post of the week) and I'm taking the best of the rare sunny spell we have.

Hope you are all having a wonderful time, no matter of the sun !

Have a good Sunday !

I wanted to try something new this week-end and almond milk came in my mind. I wanted to make my own for a while so I took the advantage of having anything but some almond powder left in my kitchen shelves to give it a try.

I wasn't sure about what to except and have been surprise to see how sweet and delicate it taste ! It matches perfectly with some orange flower water into a milk shake, and I used the pureed almond left from the almond milk filtered to make delicious and soft small cakes.

Meanwhile, here are the latest things that inspired me this week.

Hope you are all having a wonderful week-end !

P.S: I am taking part of my first fashion bloggeur contest tomorrow and I will need your help guys... stay tuned !

Have a good Sunday !

My UGG matches perfectly the color of the sand.

We are going to talk more often about fashion on this blog... Can't wait !

After long time for searching, I have finally found my perfect transparent plastic shoes. Combine with boyfriend jeans and silk white shirt, neon or metalic nailpolish, and the look will be stunning.

Sunday DIY

Succulent in a jar - DIY.

One layer of gravel, sand and then soil in a jar and here is my new improvised succulent vase.

Sunday Recipe

Lemon peels & candied hazelnut scones.

I had this sachet of candied hazelnuts in my kitchen for a while, thinking about making a brioche with them. I finally changed my mind to scones, as I was to lazy to make the entire brioche process with knead, rising time, etc ...
I've added some lemon peels to balance the candied taste and the combination of these two worked perfectly !

I used this recipe with 85 gr candied hazelnut and the peels from a half lemon.

Fugazi - I'm so tired.

Sunday Crash (test)

You may have noticed, there were no recipes on the blog this week. Well, and that's because everything I tried failed ! So we ate some pastas and easy food, waiting for my clumsiness to leave.

Sunday Weather

Snow.

We finally had some snow ! Not enough to build a snowman, but enough to enjoy a cup of hot tea watching the snow flakes falling over.

Sunday Look

I truly believe the beauty of a piece comes from its fit, and this look explains it well.

Have a good Sunday !

General Store :: San Francisco

 

When I was in San Francisco last month (oh wait, it was already 2 month ago), we stumbled into this amazing shop located in Ocean Beach: Genral Store, and I immediately fell for it with its old californian spirit and its vintage touch.

Once you are inside, time stops: you want to buy every single decorating item, cute cards and vintage clothes.

Hard to make a choice...

But the best part of it is this little bakyard where you want to stay all day long, laying down next to the old table decorated with shells and drinking a fresh squeezed lime lemonade with a drop of Tequila.

 

 

 

 

 

So next time you go to San Francisco, don't forget to ride your bike through the Golden Gate Park and stop (and shop) at this place.
