{Morning coffee + muffin at my apartment}
It was only when I went to post on my blog today that I realized that it's been exactly one year since you've last heard from me. While there's no good excuse for not having posted in so long, I can only promise you that I am back. Back making a mess in the kitchen, back taking too many pictures of the evidence + back sharing my culinary stories with all of you!
My career path has been anything but traditional + has recently taken a different turn for the better. Since I've changed directions professionally I no longer have an excuse to devour WAY too many blueberry muffins at the delicious coffee shop around the corner from my old office. When I was going through some major withdrawal this morning after having not had one for the last 3 weeks I decided instead of heading 10 blocks downtown to pick one up, I would head 2 avenues west to the grocery store + get ingredients to make my own.
