I’d give almost anything to be sitting at this table with a big mug of coffee, sketching my little heart out. Or pouring through cookbooks. Or writing a letter. (Those wood floors! That wallpaper! That exposed brick!)

I think one of these Peanut Butter Cup martinis would be plenty to fill your sweet tooth. Seems like it would make a perfect dessert after a long day, too.
Ingredients:
– 2 oz Castries
– 1 oz Godiva Chocolate Liquor
– 1 oz Super Premium Vodka
Shake vigorously over ice and strain into a chilled martini glass. Optional: Line the Martini glass with chocolate syrup for additional effect.

Everyone knows that one of the best flavor combinations ever is peanut butter and chocolate. Hands down. No contest. If that sounds like heaven to you, check out these Peanut Buttercups with peanut-penuche icing that have a surprise hunk of chocolate in the center. Grrrrreat!

Posted In recipesI’m all about spreading the love. Because honestly nothing makes you feel better about yourself and than making someone else’s day. Or even just making them smile.
That’s only one of the reasons I’m digging Free Encouragement postcards, a collaboration between Booooooom and Design for Mankind guaranteed to knock out negativity. Head over to their shop to pick up a set or two and admire the works of collaborating artists like Jen Collins, Gemma Correll and Dennis de Groot! Check out the background story here.
Posted In cards, collaboration/project, paper goodsI love my little iPod Shuffle. It’s perfect for working out. But I’m digging the new slim and sleek design of this just released version even more than my cute, square clip-on guy. Especially the dark gray version.

Peanut butter and jelly sandwiches were never good to me until a few years ago – I used to be a strictly peanut butter or strictly jelly sandwich eater. Now I can’t get enough of the combo, so I’m looking forward to trying out this recipe for Peanut Butter and Jelly Bars!

Posted In recipesI adore projects like this. Unexpected kindness. Uplifting reminders. Two things you can’t go wrong with in this world today. The project and subsequent photos take place in Singapore, but I think every city needs it.
