togethery and remembery

"Christmas is a togethery sort of holiday," said Pooh. 

"That's my favorite kind," said Piglet.
"Togethery and remembery."

"Don't forget the love," added Eeyore.










I'm so excited it's December!! So many fun Christmassy things to do. I plan on making the most of each day this month. How about you?

What is on your Christmas to-do list?

Sweets For My Sweet

As the seasons start to change and the weather gets colder, I definitely get more domestic and want to start baking! However, I wouldn't mind ordering cookies instead of baking them if they are from a place like Cookie Rush! They have the most adorable cookies, and they will also do custom orders!







Check out all of the adorable cookies here.

Miette

Miette: French for "little crumb". If that wasn't cute enough, I have discovered this adorable pastry shop called Miette. It is located in the Ferry Building in San Francisco, California.

I have yet to go there, but I definitely will. From what I hear, it is as cute as it sounds! I am so glad I found them online so I could get a taste for what they have. The best part? You can actually order their cookies and confections online (cakes excluded). Here are some wonderful treats they offer:

Princess:
Genoise sponge cake moistened with Chambord, a layer of raspberry jam, pastry cream and lightly sweetened Straus Family Creamery whipped cream, covered with white chocolate fondant.

Strawberry Tomboy:
Three layers of chocolate cake filled with strawberry buttercream.

Bumblebee:
Yellow cake with whipped chocolate ganache.

Scharffen Berger:
A moist chocolate cake made with Scharffen Berger’s cocoa powder and 70% chocolate and covered in a bittersweet, truffle ganache.

Yellow Strawberry Cupcake:
Rich yellow cupcake topped with fluffy strawberry buttercream.


Lemon Shortbread:
Fresh, light, buttery, and zesty goodness.

Lemon Debutante:
Three layers of vanilla sponge cake, homemade lemon curd and very light lemon buttercream.

Gingersnaps:
Fresh, dried, & candied ginger, and lots of Straus butter are what make these cookies gloriously snappy.

Fleur de Sel Caramels

Vanilla Marshmallows:
Soft, sweet clouds of vanilla would pair wonderfully with a cup of dark chocolate cocoa.

Sugar Flowers and Leaves:
Decorate your cupcakes and cakes with these cute flowers!

Rosettes:
Rose geranium meringues.


Go check out all of Miette's cute wonders here. And if your in the Bay Area, I would definitely check them out!
