Food Coma =3...

SO… where to being with today. Most of the morning I spent being lazy around the house, mind you I had a lot of chores around the house but I just wasn't up for any of it. It was just one of those days! Anywho I randomly got a call from my bestie to hang out who lives about an hour away from me on days with good traffic. I obviously accepted the long drive since I was not doing much at home.

A Cheesy Goodness: Casserole...

So for dinner last night I made a broccoli and cauliflower casserole, with addition of some seasoned chicken and beef sausage or salami. I tried to do something a little different this time by using a mozzarella cheese Mornay sauce. I was really craving some veggies and would love to have them raw but  not everyone in my house can stand the look of raw veggies so dinner had to be made and served with the veggies in newbie ninja mode!

Henna cookies...

Cookies don't need to be made or eaten on special occasions but these here festive cookies were made for a south asian styled henna party, which is traditionally called a Mendhi or Dholki. These sugar cookies are perfect to be given away as favours to all the guests and with that being said a lot of them needed to be made!

Sweet things...

What else is known to bring about a smile on someones face besides food! Especially desserts if you're like me :) I'm just one of those girls who can't say no to sweets thus I have had my fair share of cavities as a child.

Peonies at Midnight...

Every lie wide awake in bed as you watched the clock turn midnight? There is something about this time that just gets your mind re-evaluating, planning, and dreaming of things that exist or changes that need to be made. I'd say it's the time your mind decides to go on a philosophical adventure of what could become and that which has.

Like peonies, this time is precious and signifies a lingering beauty that dances its way into the night. With the ever growing moon light and glistening stars, its beauty captivates you. Its radiant floral heart and addictive warmth leads the night on in mysterious ways into vibrant optimism. Peonies at midnight represents just that; optimism. It is a blog about everything and anything that brings along captivation, addiction, mystery, and adventure.
