Black + Gold

The wedding is LESS THAN A MONTH AWAY!! Which means things are starting to get frantic and crazy but i'm still surviving and managed to do something not related to the wedding or work (which is unheard of these days).

Last weekend I managed to get out a biscuit order for a wedding. The colour scheme was black, gold and white and the biscuits came out so nicely that I almost wanted to do them for our wedding even though it doesn't match our colours in ANY way. There was no time for proper photos so you'll have to settle for instagrams

I hand painted all the bronze and I think its AWESOME. I've become really fond of hand painting stuff lately (the wedding cake has a lot of hand-painted business on it so you'll see that soon too).

The biscuits were for this amazing lady from Prep'ed by Sasha. She contacted me a while ago after finding my blog. She has a catering company but doesn't do baking so has been looking for a baker to help her out - I obviously jumped at the opportunity so we'll see how things go.

I doubt i'll be back on the blog before the wedding and honeymoon and stuff are all over so don't expect anything from me until at least the middle of May. So see you later!


Here's a Little Dog donut pic just cuz it's so cute...

Happy Valentines Day

Happy Valentines day everyone...I totally went all cheesy and did hearts and stuff, well I tried to make them a little designer-ish at least

Be present...

When I went to Europe last year (or the year before actually) someone told me, or I read somewhere, that you need to remember where you are. When my best friend went to Europe last year I gave her the same advice - you will be tired and annoyed and just want to sleep at some point, but when you get there just stop and remember where you are - whether it is Italy or Paris or London, remember that you are somewhere you might never be again and somewhere you have dreamed of being for years.

Yesterday I kind of had to tell myself the same thing. Cuz sometimes we forget where we are every day. I was washing the dishing and feeling annoyed about it cuz my sister was living with us for the last month and has been doing all the cleaning (thanks Lindy) and now she's moved out again so its back to being my job again. I looked up out the window above the sink and this amazing sunset was splashed across the sky.

It made me remember to sometimes stop and remember where I am. In this amazing place where sunsets like this, happen on a Monday evening while you washing the dishes.
