Nantucket: Part Three

Congratulations to Meg and Kal! The wedding was absolutely beautiful. Sadly, I don't have ton of photos to share of the actual wedding since I was so excited and (obviously) distracted. Thanks for letting me share my photos from my trip. Til the next vacation!

Bridesmaid Cards

Since I'm pretty obsessed with stationery and making things whenever I can, I decided to make my bridesmaids (my sisters) bridesmaid cards. I had so much fun making these and wish I could take full credit for the idea. I followed Anna's here.

Happy Friday!

Happy Friday everyone! I'm leaving work early and heading off to DC to go to my sister's PA school graduation. Have a great weekend!

A Rainy Weekend


It was really cold and rainy this weekend but it was still nice. My awesome sisters and mom gave me a really nice cowl from Seedknits for my birthday. We saw God of Carnage which was also a gift from one of my sisters. (Thanks Kris and Joe!!) Made some vanilla-almond waffles and bacon.

Here's the recipe I used.
1 egg, room temperature and separated 1 cup all purpose flour (I used whole wheat flour to make it a little heathlier) 1 tsp baking powder 1/8 tsp salt 1 tbs brown sugar 3/4 cup milk 1 tbs vanilla extract 3 tbs butter, melted and cooled 1/4 cup almonds (slivered) Beat egg white in a small bowl until stiff and set aside. Mix together dry ingredients and set aside. Combine egg yolk, milk, vanilla and butter. Add to dry ingredients, mixing until just blended. Fold in beaten egg white until just mixed. Do not overbeat batter. Cook on waffle iron and add almonds after it is cooked.

Save the Dates

One of my sisters is getting married this fall. She let me design her Save the Dates! Here's the outcome. I'll have to take a picture of just a single card so you get a better gist. I think I was proud I was able to mass produce something myself. Thank god for bone folders.
