A few months ago, my mom's trusty leather armchair began tearing. Over the course of a few weeks, the tear got so big that it became unrepairable. My mom was about to throw out the chair, when I suggested that we try re-upholstering it. I've seen so many design blogs that did such amazing [...]
Fun fact: some of my favorite desserts come from Italy. Among them are tiramisu and cannoli! I can never resist a good cannoli, even if I am stuffed or if it costs $5. Cannoli and I are for life. Over the summer, my boyfriend and I started a "cannoli challenge" where we tried multiple cannolis offered [...]
It's been a while since my last DIY! My roommate and I are moving out in a few weeks and since I'm taking a lot of decorations with me, I thought it would be a nice gesture to make her some new ones for her new fancy bachelorette pad! I've seen these DIY twine [...]
My boyfriend and I are celebrating our anniversary tonight with a lovely picnic in the park. For dessert, instead of the traditional picnic staple -- pie, I decided to go with a galette this time.

This strawberry frozen Greek yogurt is so stupid easy to make, and it requires only 3 ingredients. It's the perfect summer treat that will both satisfy your sweet tooth and ice cream cravings while being a much healthier alternative!
I've always wanted to try deep frying food, but I never got to it for many reasons: it makes the apartment smell like oil, it splashes, it's unhealthy, it uses up so much oil! But I finally decided to take the plunge and fry up something yesterday. I made a batch of mashed potatoes, and [...]

Two weeks ago, I went to Chicago, and stop 1 was Magnolia Bakery. Ever since my first time there in New York City two years ago, I've been obsessed. It's just that good. After coming home, I had a lot of pudding withdrawals, and lucky for me (and hopefully for you!) Magnolia Bakery actually has [...]
