Tiramisu is one of my all time favorite desserts. I come from an Italian background, so there's no surprise there ;) But because autumn rhymes with pumpkin and cinnamon errything , I decided to add a little twist to my classic recipe. I say classic, but really it's far from it, 'cause for my usual Tiramisu I use cinnamon cookies instead of the traditional ladyfingers. I adore cinnamon just a much as pumpkins. And coffee. So it was a no-brainer, really!

Confession time: Despite my love of parties, I never go OTT on costumes for Halloween. And I hate those shop-bought "monstrosities" costumes that you only wear once. But I DO like dressing the part for any party or celebration. So I tend to opt for some funky tee-shirts, crazy tights, makeup or a little black dress ( like in this post ). And almost every time, I reach our for animal ear headbands to complete the look (the mean girls "I'm a mouse, duh!" phrase comes to mind...).
Happy Friday, party lovers! This week has been intense with thunderstorms and internet issues for us...but at least we're not in the path of tornado Matthew, so we're counting our blessings and sparing thoughts and prayers for those touched by the freak weather.
Okay, so black electrical tape has become one of my fav go-to crafty materials lately. You may have seen the striped boxes I create for my office here ?

They are perfect as party decorations, but also make fun photo booths or even as part of a funky costume.

Toffee apples take me right back to childhood. I remember walking past the sweet stands selling them at carnivals and country fairs, and I always pestered my mom to buy them. I totally favored these over cotton candy every time! And autumn is the perfect time to make these delicious, crunchy toffee apples at home. Forget bobbing for apples, toffee apples is where it's at! ;) Oh, and did I mention it's super easy too? I love them even more now!
Usually I hate it when summer ends, but this year summer has been so intense, that I really welcomed Fall with open arms! Plus, it's another great opportunity to get back in the kitchen and bake some treats, without fear of putting the oven on.
Balloons have always had a special place in my heart, even before they were "trendy". I can't imagine a party without them. They're inexpensive and add instant color and a structural element to any party scene, what's not to love?! Nowadays, you see the most exquisite creations and arrangement for weddings, birthdays, photo booths...
Sometimes a girl just can't find the right outfit, am I right? Be it for a birthday party, dinner date or Halloween costume...finding that one piece you had in mind to complete your outfit, can sometimes be challenging. This is where knowing how to whip up a quick and easy elasticated party skirt can save the day! And for those of you who are "allergic" to sewing (like me, at times...), fear not! It's a reeeeeally simple tutorial, pinky promise ;)
