Cherry Blossom Cookies!

This week has FINALLY felt like a glimmer of hope. The sun is starting to feel warm., snow drops are out.. and of course in Victoria .. the famous cherry blossoms are lining the street again in all their pink and white glory. I love them so much I had them tattooed on me!

I stumbled across some AMAZING cookies on decorated cookie and saw her cherry blossom cookies and ran straight to the store.

I purchased blue fondant and colouring gels, whipped up a batch of my favorite shortbread recipes and got decorating.

didn't they turn out beautiful?? They tasted just as good.

Next time I'll have to remember to buy the pink since I thought watering down the gel would work... and it doesn't.

They still look good though eh?

Happy Spring!

My bedside table is quite honestly, a bit of a mess at times.. and I may.. not may not have.. cleaned it up just a little.. for this photos. Just maybe....

OK although this wasn't my original entry for the day, I now herby retrack my original photo and would like to post this one as my neighbourhood. Every Saturday I go down to the water with Mr.Aftercraft and slurp coffee and walk Bobo watching the waves.. listening to tunes and I like to get some handsewing done. This is the view..just a few blocks away.

Whilst running around to several hardware stores on the weekend, Bobo never lets an opportunity slip to go for a caride.  Just once glance and I'm in giggles. I love my dog.

I've been rocking the red for the past 8 months or so and decided after much consideration to have a re-vamp and have gone back to the purple and pink.

Took out all the blond.. 

It's joico colour which is so vibrant and it lasts forever.

Last time I had it done it was still super bright after 4 months. 

6 months later people were still commenting on it.

Thank you Ashley from Lab!! I heart you and will miss you so much while you are away for 6 months.. Hopefully this will last!

Aaaand that concludes my photo shoot for the day. Thank you and goodnight.
