There is no denying, I love white when it comes to choosing paint for a project. Perhaps that’s because it creates a beautiful blank canvas to work with or immediately lightens and brightens a space. In any case I love it and find myself convincing clients to embrace it as well. But not all whites are created equal, so today I’m sharing some of my absolute favorites, the ones I go to all the time.
Have you heard about Hygge, most commonly pronounced ‘hoo-gah’? It is predicted to be what Marie Kondo was to homes in 2015 and 2016. Shorted listed to be the Oxford Dictionary International Word of the Year for 2017, today I’m sharing everything you need to know about this hot new (and dare I say much needed) trend.
A couple weeks ago I thought I would try my hand at Linzer Cookies, just in time for Valentines Day. Traditionally made with blackberry jam, I thought I would make mine with homemade Raspberry Thyme Jam, creating what I thought would be an elevated Linzer Cookie. What I did not consider, was that homemade raspberry jam contains a tonne of seeds! While I’m sure there’s some fancy (or super simple, in which case, please share) way to remove seeds from raspberry jam, I lacked the time or motivation to investigate. So off to the market I went to pick up seedless raspberry jam and this glorious homemade jam has instead been enjoyed on toast and homemade scones. A win-win really 😉
