Paula’s Bakery

I already ate yet I’m still starving. I’m craving massive amounts of junk food and I can’t help it. I like to bake but I just don’t have much time anymore now that I’m working again. I barely have time to breathe let alone eat. Thankfully I have Etsy to browse in my spare time. I can order all the junk and have it shipped directly to me.. or my ass rather!

Today I want some goodies from Paula’s Bakery.  Those Smores Brownies are really calling my name. Graham cracker crust, moist and delicious chocolate brownie and a toasted marshmellow topping. What could be tastier? It sounds absolutely delightful!

You’ll get an 8×8 pan, usually 4 brownies, but the are rich, you can cut them smaller, or larger.

Happy -almost- Valentines!

Yay! It’s finally Valentines weekend! A time for love and reconnecting.  We are celebrating Valentines tonight instead of Sunday due to the hotel being booked when we wanted to go.  I thought I would share with you today a few things that I would be utterly pleased with for Valentines Day (overnight shipping? I can have it?).  Enjoy!

Because I am starving right now the first thing I went on the lookout for was a yummy Valentines Day Treat.  I didn’t have to look far, I found a wonderful treat shop called Broken Road Farm on Etsy.  They make these wonderful Valentines Balls, cake dipped in frosting, with sprinkles.  It goes without saying I love cake!  I love cake even more when I don’t have to cut said cake.  These are perfect for the lazy snacker in me.

On Valentines Day you gotta have a special “garment” to wear.  Be it a dress to go out in, or something a little less to stay home in *winks*.  These Valentine’s Bloomsies  from Bloomsies are wonderful!  They come in an arrangment that you could even display.  This set contains a pair of knee high socks, two pairs of boy style briefs, and a hand painted card wrapped in a vase that you can put to great use because he better have gotten you flowers too, right? Right!  I love these!

My husband pretty much knows where he ranks. Right behind the kitten!  I love my kitten more then life itself so I’m defintily going to appreciate something special for him on Valentines Day.  These adorable Be Mine Mousy from Cattitude Creations would make a wonderful present for any kitty on Valentines.  These Mousy are made of 100% wool and stuff with tasty catnip.  I can see my kitten carrying this around in his mouth.

I hope everyone has a wonderful Valentines Day Weekend full of Love!

For the love of art & entertaining…

I’m super-excited because tonight, my boyfriend and I are going out for tapas.  I haven’t had tapas in ages!  What are tapas you ask?  You can find a more detailed description here.  In short, tapas are Spanish “little plates of food.”  If you haven’t tried tapas before, what are you waiting for?  Super fun with a group of friends – order a bunch of tapas and everyone shares!

So, tonight I bring you an absolutely beautiful find from the Etsy store Tapas Trays.  This store offers the most beautiful handmade serving trays.  Each tray is designed, hand cut, kiln formed and assembled by the shop owner and features durable metal handles for easy carrying and rubber “feet” on the bottom to protect the underlying surface.  You won’t find two identical pieces in this shop and you’ll be happy to know that shipping is included (to anywhere in the United States) in the prices you see!  You can use these trays for anything – not just for serving tapas.  Use them to set out cheese & crackers or arrange a fresh fruit platter!

Love the product but want your own design?  No worries, Tapas Trays will do a custom order for you!  I also recommend checking out Tapas Trays website, where you can see a photo gallery of designs, new designs and more.  All purchasing, however, is done through their Etsy shop.

So, who can guess which trays I’ve got my eye on?
