BITE-SIZE EXPRESSION: Peanut Butter Addiction

I find that peanut butter is the next best thing after butter, the food world has ever come up with. Don't mind the gooey mess that comes with eating peanut butter 'coz that's half the fun. I was reminded of this last sunday, when I attended the christening of my bestfriend's daughter. We braved manila's heatwave for a lovely morning at the church in honor of the cuddliest, tiniest baby ever; followed by a small and intimate lunch for the family and god-parents (yes, she's my second godchild) and guess where I was seated...facing the dessert buffet. I had the chocolate fountain, tiramisu and more desserts staring at me the entire lunch. So, I went home with a baby and dessert in mind. Hence, this inspiration board. The chocolate-dipped spoon, the french books, and the flowers would look really great on a chic, afternoon baby shower or even a bridal shower.

Wouldn't this be perfect for chocloate & peanut butter addicts?

BITE-SIZE EXPRESSION: Sandwich Lady

It's one of those really hot and humid days that is best spent indoors but that hint of summer glow kept creeping into mind. I've always wanted to go on a picnic but living in a city like Manila where parks are pretty much non-existent is a challenge. So, for today's board I chose a rustic summer sandwich to create that warm, carefree, lazy afternoon feeling. I would love nothing more than to have friends over and use this board on a sunday afternoon.

BITE-SIZE EXPRESSION: White Chocolate Noodle & Mango Sago

It's February! A month of pretty, sickeningly sweet and love-crazed reminders and I'm starting it by introducing a weekly inspiration board based on food. This week's inspiration board is on an amazing-looking dessert from Radisson Blu Hotel Cebu that I shot with my editor Sheryl a while back. I loved the modern rustic vibe that it had and the color palette that's just perfect for february. Have a light and dreamy day!
