It’s back to school time (can you believe it?!), for some it’s a time for excitement (hello parents 😉 ) and for others there’s sadness and a longing for summer to last just a little while longer (hello students!). While I would never wish summer away, I do love this time of year, the crispness in the air, the return to routine and new beginnings, creates an energy and sense of excitement that I just adore.
There’s no question I like a white and bright space. Nothing offers a better backdrop for design. But sometimes, a saturated colour is just the thing to add some wow and interest to a space. In those instances, there are few tried and true colours I turn to, my favourite saturated paint colours.
In keeping with the Moroccan theme of the week, (click here to read about my Moroccan inspired outdoor movie night), today’s recipe pays homage to the French influence in Moroccan cooking. Despite the short lived colonization of Morocco, France’s influence on the country’s food remains. And this Apricot Lavender Cake is quintessentially French in flavour.
