Luxe Wish List ::

After reading Donna Hay Magazine's 10th Birthday edition (side note: BEST food magazine in the world), I was inspired to create a luxe wish list for myself. Some of these items are a bit more luxe than others... and some are way out of my realistic range right now... but I absolutely adore them all.

Napa Valley Wedding ::

This is one of the most beautiful wedding I've seen to date. It's simple, yet very elegant. I love the natural colors, green and white flowers, and dark wood tables and chairs. This couple did a wonderful job working with the natural beauty of Beaulieu Gardens.

happy monday!

Newport Beach, California

I took this photo yesterday for a photography class I am taking and I really like the way it turned out. Happy Monday everyone!

Banana Bread ::

I made this banana bread yesterday and it was absolutely delicious. I always undercook it a little so that it's extra moist in the middle, but this recipe will already make very moist bread. It's simple and straightforward. You can add nuts (or anything, really) if you want, but I like mine without them.

2 cups granulated sugar

1 cup butter, softened

6 very ripe bananas, mashed (about 3 cups)

4 eggs, beaten

2 1/2 cups cake flour

2 teaspoons baking soda

1 teaspoon salt

Cream the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy. Add mashed bananas and eggs, mix thoroughly.

Sift dry ingredients together and blend with banana mixture. Be careful to not over mix the batter.

Pour into 2 greased loaf pans and bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes to 1 hour.

For the Home :: Bathroom Design

I love all of these white bathrooms. Neutral doesn't necessarily mean boring. Each bathroom has such detail in the tile, countertops, moulding, cabinetry... all are so beautiful! Which is your favorite?
