weekly dose

Here's something you still don't know about me. My favorite day of the week has always been Thursday. Why? Because it means just one more day and it would officially be the start of weekend fun! The idea that the week is almost coming to an end thrills me. I guess I'm quirky that way. But I look forward to it even more so now because it's when the Mister comes home from his weekly business trips.

While I wait for Thursday and the Mister, here were some of my sweet companions throughout the week.


I have always been intimidated by the thought of making Leche Flan. It seemed like such a tedious task until I found this recipe and finally had the courage to make it. It was not as hard as I imagined except I still can't make proper caramel so I cheated and made simple syrup instead.



I've always been a HUGE fan of anything with chocolate and mint together so I was delighted to find this at the grocery store. Instant warm hug in a cup.



Oh my, these shortbread cookies from Honolulu Cookie Company are like little pieces of joy. Something you must try if you ever find yourself in Hawaii.

Thanks for stopping by!
