Weekend chocolate fix

Thanks to the wonderful Family Kitchen blog for this one! I happened to come across this recipe by accident & considered it a godsend - I still have a half full jar of Nutella I needa put to good use and I'm thinking I'm definitely going to give this a try this weekend :)

"dwindle" illustration

A new piece from a new series of paintings/illustrations called "dwindle". It was done with some inks and watercolor and a little solitude :)

Prints will be available - hopefully very soon!

Why branding is awesome...

Just an example of what I think is one the most beautiful & successful re-branding ever done! I was pleasantly surprised when I first saw the new look of my favorite soy milk revealed on the shelf of my grocery store. It's new look is minimal and still playful looking. Who would pass up this little carton of delightfulness?

Song Bird - Theresa Andersson

While blogging & trying to keep in the "Nawlins" spirit - I tapped to Theresa Andersson. I'd say definitely give her a listen if you're in the mood for some indie/soul/jazzy/folk tunes.

A nod to New Orleans

Just returned from a trip from one of my favorite cities ever - and I already can't wait to visit again soon! There's plenty to see and I discover something new every time - I thought it was worth noting a couple of their great local shops and a particularly talented resident :)
