This past weekend Ryan and I had the privilege of going to Amelia Island with friends & family. It was our first time visiting, and although it was extremely cold, we had a great time. Here are just a few pictures from our trip.
I hope you have a wonderful week!
I’ve never made biscotti before, but I was excited to try it. They turned out really well, and I know that I will definitely be making them again soon. The recipe I used is for Chai Biscotti and can be found here. I used Vanilla Chai instead of regular, and substituted pumpkin spice for allspice. Overall, they are the perfect compliment to a cup of coffee or hot cocoa.
Sidenote: I have an obsession with drizzling chocolate on baked goods! It just looks pretty and tastes amazing. I mean, c’mon, it’s chocolate! :)
Inspiration comes in all forms. A lot of my style inspiration comes from photos, magazines, designers, or just street style that I see every day. But sometimes it is also comes from a person and/or actor. I saw An Education a little while ago and fell in love with the movie. Carey Mulligan’s performance was beautiful, and I’ve respected her ever since. I adore her overall look and style.
Anyways… I found these photos inspiring, so I just thought I’d share. ♥
These eggplant salad toasts never cease to impress me. I made them for the first time several months ago and now I crave them all the time. I think they make for a delicious appetizer, or a great meal when paired with a garden salad (like below). You can find the recipe here.
One of the great things about living in Orlando is being close to the attractions that many people travel far and wide to visit. Now, in general, I avoid the tourist-y stuff. However, iFly Orlando (previously known as SkyVenture) is amazing. It’s indoor skydiving. I would absolutely love to go real skydiving one day, but have yet to build up the courage. This is the perfect alternative.
(Above is Ryan… who is clearly much better at it than I am!)
Special thanks to our awesome instructors – Michael Kirkland & Adam Fultz!
