What I am loving...

Gypsy Kings

My friend, Jess, gave Little B a set of these plate as a gift.  Aren't they so cute!?  We have Tree Hugger, Cutie Pie, and Love Bug.  They make me smile.

Lazy Sunday mornings bring the indulgence of French Press coffee.  Coffee tastes so much better when made this way.

 As I was rummaging through my cookbook collection, I came across this book.  I read it about 10 years ago.  Anyways, I found myself completely engrossed in the pages while sitting on the kitchen floor, completely distracted from my original task.  The recipes, the descriptions... all of it takes me back to our trip in Italy.  I want to go back so badly.  For Little B, I want her to learn to babble in Italian, slurp fettucini, and experience gelato dripping off her chin.  Basically I want her to be an Italian baby... even if it is temporary experience.  For me, I want to rent a villa for a month, visit countless wineries, and just soak in the smells and tastes of the region.  Sure I may come back 100 lbs fatter... but that is a risk I am willing to endure.

What are you loving this week?
