color-blocking | pantone eggs

I hope everyone had a wonderful Easter… even if you didn’t celebrate, hopefully you spent the day in the spring sunshine {and maybe ate an egg or two!}

spring is in the air and with easter this weekend, I thought I should post something “seasonal” for you.

Today I am sharing a recipe that I tried last week: Veggie Enchiladas with an avocado + cilantro sauce {via ohsheglows} I changed mine up a bit from the original recipe but I used her recipe as a starting point. It was so delicious and I can’t wait to make it again!

cook the veggies.

wrap ’em up.

scarf them down.

Oh and in case anyone was wondering, I did make basketball cakeballs. Although the outcome of the game wasn’t what I hoped for, the outcome of the cakeballs were a crowd pleaser.

Happy eating

I know. I know… you’re probably thinking, another jayhawk post? really?

It seems as though everyone is talking about the mega millions jackpot today. While that would be nice to win, I’m more concerned with a little game going on tomorrow… ku vs ohio state. I am so nervous and it’s still 24+ hours away. I am such an anxious fan. I yell. I hold my breath. I pace the room. So what’s a girl to do? Bake of course. {emotional eating}

If you’re my friend, you know my obsession for cakeballs. I like to say I’ve mastered the technique over the last few years but I’m no bakerella. So, if when we make it to the championship game, I plan to make these bad boys for a game time treat.

beak ’em!

Have you ever had one of those weeks where you need about triple the hours in a day? where you have 10 lists going but still feel unorganized {and overwhelmed} ? I’m having one of those weeks. Not in a bad way.  To be busy is a great thing. A lucky thing in my line of work. But sometimes you need a reminder to take a breath and slow down. So, if you are feeling like me, step outside for a few minutes and enjoy the fresh, spring air. The work will be waiting for you when you get back.

when life gives you lemons limes, just add tequila.

introducing {drumroll, please} wedding wednesday!
okay, yes, it’s Thursday. But, I couldn’t wait a week to tell you about this!

Since weddings + parties are quickly becoming my main clients, I thought, why not blog about it? So I am. Every Wednesday I will feature something about weddings. It could be a style shoot, invitations, DIY projects, vendors, table settings, color scheme, etc etc. Anything that can inspire.

So, let’s kick this thing off with a wooded-wonderland style shoot that I had the pleasure of being apart of back in February. We picked the perfect, secluded cabin in the woods of Frisco, Colorado. Flannel, cotton and twigs inspired us as we gathered “camp-like” elements to create a cozy and peaceful scene.

{Here are some of my favorite images of the day}

have you seen the “hipster branding” tumblr yet? If not, give it a look.
{some of my favorites}

Adweek wrote an article about it last week and I have to agree with some of the points made. A few of the “new” logos are eye-catching and maybe more appealing, typographically, but what exactly makes them hipster?

cool or lame?
{either way, it was fun to look at}
