  • Rainy days call for open windows, comfy sweaters, and Harry Potter ⚡️ I finally decided to open my chocolate frog from London, and Tim surprised me with a cup of cinnamon tea in my new mug 😍 It’s a good day. #rainyday #harrypotter #deathlyhallows #shopthepathtonarnia #society6 #chocolatefrog #sunday #relax #love #hengistofwoodcroft #selflove #selfcaresunday
  • I want to remember today because...this is my first order for a non-family member! It’s taken me a couple of years to understand and perfect macarons, and I’m so excited! I’d like to offer about seven base flavors and only have two so far (cookies & cream and dark chocolate coffee), so stay tuned over the next few months as I experiment! #macaron #macarons #italianmethod #cookiesandcream #oreo #sweetforcertain
  • I had fun experimenting this weekend per a friend’s request with some new ingredients, rose water and lavender! The blueish macaron is rose water with vanilla buttercream and a raspberry filling, and the purple one is lavender honey 😍 I still need to get better at making them all the same size (I need to make a template-this is all by eye), but the flavor was pretty spot on! I’m not even a fan of rose water, and these tasted really good lol! #macaron #macarons #rosewater #raspberry #lavender #honey #italianmethod #sweetforcertain
  • It’s been almost a year since I was in Paris. I was planning on posting some pictures later on in the week, not expecting this at all. The atmosphere and beauty of Notre Dame is unmatched. It’s hard to even put into words the feeling of being there-the beautiful music, the ambiance, the history. I felt it all as soon as I walked in its doors and immediately started crying. No place in the world has affected me like Notre Dame did. So many others should have been able to experience this. I’m absolutely heartbroken 😔
  • Any Game of Thrones fans out there? @thesaltedcupcake created Game of Thrones cupcakes in celebration of the final season, so Tim and I drove to GR specifically to get some! Aren’t they beautiful 😍 We ate the Red Wedding cupcake on the way home (if you can guess which one that is 😁) and definitely can’t wait to finish the rest! The White Walker is one of the most beautiful but simple cupcakes I’ve ever seen. Huge thumbs up to them for having such an awesome idea! #thesaltedcupcake #GoT #gameofthrones #cupcake #cupcakes
  • Cookies & cream macarons, a favorite in our household 💜💙 We’re picking up some Game of Thrones themed cupcakes tomorrow at a cupcake shop in GR in celebration of the final season starting on Sunday-last time I was there the owners were super sweet to us, so I’m bringing some of these for them to try 😁 #macaron #macarons #cookiesandcream #oreo #italianmethod #sweetforcertain
  • When the strawberry is bigger than the cupcake 😍 I know strawberries aren’t in season yet, but a wonderful coworker of Tim’s is leaving this week, and these are her favorite 💜 Dark chocolate cupcakes with strawberry cream cheese frosting, topped with chocolate covered strawberries 🍓 Pudsy was with me every step of the way haha! #cupcakes #chocolate #chocolatecoveredstrawberries
  • Joyeux 4th Anniversaire to my sweet niece, Chloe 💜 She asked for purple macarons for her birthday party, and I surprised her with the decorations. We had so much fun filling them together! These are purple lemon-flavored macarons with french raspberry buttercream and lemon curd in the middle. Perfect mix of sweet and tart. First time using edible glitter, and I’m a huge fan! #macaron #macarons #joyeuxanniversaire #eiffeltower #paris #frenchbuttercream #italianmethod #glitter #birthday #sweet #dessert #sweetforcertain
