Some inspiration for summer
Deja sent me a link to this post on the Bon Appetit blog. (Which I didn’t know existed, but I like. Along with their new website. Very nice BA!)
Every year I think I’m going to do this and I don’t. BUT THIS IS THE YEAR!!
Considering it’s the official start to summer this weekend (huge tease), it’s time to start planning for summer parties. I’m thinking most weekends should look like this amazing birthday party we’re featuring on 100 Layer Cake today. It has me very very desperate for warm nights and cafe lights and communal meals.
Let’s all have a beautiful long weekend, and hopefully at least some of us are partaking in something similar. We’ll be packing up our house for the painters.
Oh! And don’t forget today is the last day to enter my lil giveaway for the bunting flags. I’m going to have to do a random pick, ladies. There are too many sweet entries.
Those vodkas look good. Pomegranate is another great one, and a gorgeous colour too!
Oh warm nights, I hope we have some soon…
Maybe after our workout on Sunday we can “infuse some booze”? And then plan a fabulous dinner party for sometime in June?!!
Ok, that’s it. You’re having your Summer Solstice party this year. No ands ifs or buts :)
That party has me wanting to host one just like it. So inspiring!
i had the BEST martini of my life in new orleans with pineapple infused vodka… best ever. like i still dream about it. and i’m not a huge martini girl.
all that to say, doooooo this.
1- everything Bon Appetite is so fabulous right now… totally impressed
2- I want to be invited to that birthday party… looks divine
3- hi!
I’ve infused spirits before – you should definitely try it! I like using combinations of rhubarb, quince, and kumquats with vanilla beans and cardamom. I’m also planning on making my own gin later this summer!.
That table is so enchanting and welcoming. What a lovely spread!
Love your blog!!
