Impromtu Photowalk

Hey everyone! So today I got the chance to work with the lovely Kelsey Forsyth on a really fun photoshoot/walk. It really was a spur of the moment thing with no real theme to it. We just met up, grabbed some coffee (well I did) and we just walked around the seawall taking shots and really just goofing off. There were a lot of great shots but here are a couple of my favourites! (with a little bit of editing)

A look to the future

Hey everyone, so as part of my goal to blog more I've came up with a bunch of things I thought would be great to start blogging about (you know besides my usual baking and DIY projects).

Welcoming in 2014

Happy New Years everyone! I hope everyone had a lovely holiday and didn't overload themselves with too much work and food (like I did!). Well now that we are early in the new year, I thought it would be great to post some of my New Years resolutions up here as a visual contract to everyone what I will be trying to accomplish this year. Now I know a lot of people are against resolutions because they can't keep it or they don't want a specific day to initiate change or whatever else the matter be; but I love it. I love the idea of being able to change your lifestyle and having a whole year to try to keep it. Now unfortunately I know I am horrible at keeping resolutions because after about 2 months into the year, I lose motivation or forget. But that's why I love making so many resolutions because one or another tends to stick. And it often doesn't have to be huge lifestyle changes for me, like last year my big resolution/ goal was to finally get an agent for acting and I did....eventually. This year I've got resolutions and goals that I feel I could really accomplish. And without further ado, in no particular order, here they are!

My Sweet Tooth for Christmas

Hey everyone, so here is a follow up to my last post on Christmas. But instead of all the Christmas decor and crafts I want to show you all the Christmas baking I've done this past season. Now I will admit I was pretty ambitious this season, considering all things. I somehow made time while working practically everyday to make a bunch of goodies that I was able to share with most my friends.

So I was browsing Pinterest and saw this amazingly really easy recipe for a chocolate truffle, that I had all the ingredients for stocked in my pantry. This was the first time I had made truffles, and as simple as it was to make it, I found it there was a lot of waiting time- particularly waiting for the chocolate to settle before scooping them into chunks, then letting them settle again before rolling them into balls. I then coated them with simple confectionary sugar or a cocoa/sugar mixture.

Happy Holidays

Hey everyone! So I know it's been almost 2 months since my last post but in my defence, this time of year is always so busy for me. You see around this time of year is when I usually take on another part/full time job to add on to my other one, making me have to juggle 2 jobs plus all the Christmas celebrations. So pretty I haven't had a single day off since December 3rd, but hey that's life right? Come the New Year it's gonna get a lot less intense.
