Eat Rainbows

Did you know I’ve never made a layer cake before? It’s true. Cupcakes, jar cakes, cake doughnuts and once many years ago, a sheet cake shaped like a bat with hot pink icing (unfortunately no pictures of this exist), but never a layer cake. I decided it was time to remedy this and I also …

Rainbow Unicorn Heart

I started anew tumblr this week, for pictures of rainbows, unicorns and hearts. You know, the classics. You can follow it here and best of all, submit pictures yourself!

I ♥ Rainbows

I bought some royal blue acrylic tumblers at Anthropologie this weekend and it’s put me one step closer to completing the ~Rainbow of Dishes~ I started amassing last year.
