Care Packages!
Phew! These past few weeks just flew right on by. In 4 weeks my classes will finally come to an end, thus closing my junior year with a bang. I have yet to find a university to transfer too but i’m pretty sure everything will work out before we move to Connecticut. In 3 weeks my wonderful boyfriend will come from New Zealand and visit me for a month, and then in June it’ll be my turn to go visit him in New Zealand. 
Last time my boyfriend visited me, I made him a small care package with some of my favorite teas, a few dry foods and a few kitchen essentials to help him with his stay. This time I want to bake him a few goods since the hotel he’s staying in provides a stove and a fridge inside each room. I searched article after article till I made a small collection of care packages that inspired me to put a little something together for Greg.
Here are some care packages that helped inspire me:

Since I don’t have to worry about actually sending this overseas, i’m thinking about baking a few loaves of bread, wrapping it up in a small yet pretty piece of cloth with a small jar of jam or his favorite chutney. I’m still getting some ideas together so expect another post of the finished result sometime in the next few weeks.

A much needed post.

It’s been a while since i’ve a) crafted anything, b) had time to do anything besides study. My parents have also informed me of our relocation to CT this coming August so i’m going to have a lot on my plate for the next few months. However, I was able to finish a few more pages of the recipe book Greg and I are creating together. I’ll post pictures as soon as my parents come back from France with the camera. :3 For a few days, I rummaged through my mother’s old recipe books filled with handwritten Brazilian recipes and did my best to convert the measurements to the metric system, which was one hellava time consuming project lolol.
Speaking of recipes, my friend Reanna started her very own baking blog which is already filled with recipes. I highly recommend for everyone that is interested in baking to give her blog a try! You can reach her blog by clicking here.
edit: Did a bit of spring cleaning on my blog, took out that Avon post since it had no reason being on a craft/art/food blog. <3
