is mother nature trying to tell me something?

have i been naughty? is that why all i've seen this week is rain, gloom and doom...

this week has been a very tough one...not only have i felt exhausted the last 4 days...but i've also been carrying around a very heavy broken heart...

i believe i'm tired because i am the type of person that can't sit still for more than 2 minutes, i always have to be doing something...

and the broken heart...well i'll let this article do the talking...

needless to say i haven't really had the energy to blog...but tonight, well, i had some chocolate and i know it's gonna be another sleepless night...i gotta stop licking spoons...so i have a teeny weeny bit of energy...

so i thought i might stop in, say hello...post some teaser pics of 2 works in progress (ice cream cakes)...and show y'all some pretty little macaroons i made yesterday and sent off to heathy, as part of the package of goodies she won in my 2nd giveaway...had to make up for the lack of rawnola...

sweet dreams my girls...and have a beautiful friday...sending you all so much love...

  7. I heard about the OSPCA thing and I was also outraged and heartbroken. There are no words...

    I'm sorry life and commute are tiring you out and wearing you down. And it has been really rainy and gloomy in this city lately. But at least the sunshine has come out today, which I'm pretty excited about. The weather definitely has such a strong influence on the way people feel, especially the amount of sunlight. Glad you're doing a bit better today. And as always, your unbaked goods look awesome. I don't know how you find the time, it amazes me. Hope you have a great Friday and weekend <3

  12. That article is so sad. There has to be something they can do besides having the animals put to sleep. That sounds like laziness to me. I think they could have treated the animals.

  13. I'm sorry you've been having such a rough week
    :(
    Maybe you need some new music for your commute or a good podcast? Sometimes that can make a day better. Keep your chin up girlie :)

    Oh, and your desserts look flawless and foodgasmic as always
