A Movable Feast


A Moveable Feast is one of my all time favorite books. I love his description of Paris and the moments that he encounters. I would love to trek down to Key West and visit Hemingway's house.

Bluebells


Ever since watching the movie I Capture the Castle and hearing the main character talk about the scent of bluebells, I have wanted that scent in my life.
You can never get a cup of tea large enough or a book long enough to suit me.

Green With Avocado Envy



I recently made fried avocados for a dinner party I was invited to. They were quite the hit. Dipping can come in all forms, I recommend:

Ketchup with a little sriracha sauce mixed in
Brianna's Honey Mustard (with the avocado on the label)
A warmed up cheese and cream sauce

Even the non-avocado obsessed attendees (I know, they're out there. Can you believe it?!) were obsessed !

A Proper Tea is much nicer than a Very Nearly Tea,
which is one you forget about after wards.
