home in croatia

when my friend casey lived in italy, she visited the beaches of croatia and said they were stunning. the vaca spot had never even crossed my mind! then recently, i came across a posting about a painfully gorgeous house on the coast. i want to go to there.



martha's pie shop

the team at martha have put out another book, martha stewart's new pies and tarts. this past weekend, they opened up a pop-up shop to celebrate the release of the book and the recipes. it looked like a super cute event and the pies look perfect!

beautiful antique pie tins displayed for the event - love it!

bright bite gets a logo!


i'm so excited to have this adorable logo for bright bite! molly drew the zinnia 
and designed the type -- i'm so in love with it :)

easy spinach pesto

justin and i made spinach pesto the other night -- incredibly easy to do and delicious. 
we loosely followed this ina recipe and it turned out great.

we ended up only using spinach (a giant family-size tub), 9 (yes 9) cloves of garlic, walnuts, olive oil, parmesan cheese, salt + pepper. a squeeze of lemon would be good too.

whole wheat pasta with spinach pesto topped with sauteed
 mushrooms, chopped walnuts and parmesan



spring tulips


the store had a mega sale on daffodils and tulips so i bought several bunches to spruce up the place. 
they make such a difference and give my house that added pop of life!
