Saturday Morning!

Good morning everyone!
Is it just me or do Saturday mornings have a different, special feeling? They always make me want to wake up early instead of late. Why is that? :)
I had gluten-free waffles and coffee this morning. An amazing mix. Now, it's time for me to get ready for ballet.(!)

Here's some pretty ballet pictures!




Have a great morning!

Ballet

shots, perfume and books.

Yesterday I learned that getting the shot doesn't hurt. It's the pain AFTERWARDS that isn't fun. haha We're going to Guatemala with our church in June and there are required shots to go on the trip. I'm at 1 down, 2 to go! Aren't shots terrible? At least I got a cute band-aid. ;)

On a happier note, here's some things that have been making me happy lately. :)

1. Marc Jacobs Daisy perfume. I don't wear perfume, but I love this bottle! I love the daisies! :)

2. The Teen Vogue Handbook. I got the book at Barnes and Noble when I had $20 to spend there. I wanted to buy something that I knew I wouldn't normally spend the money on but that I knew I would enjoy very much. This book has taught me so much about the fashion industry and even though I'm not sure what on earth I'm going to do later in life, fashion is an interest. :)

 3. I just started reading Sense and Sensibility on the plane ride home and I'm enjoying it very much! I love the movie and I know the book will be even better. (they always are)


I'll post some more later! Have a marvelous afternoon!

Pride and Prejudice

Pride and Prejudice


Pride and Prejudice by DaisyChainThoughts on Polyvore.com
I love Pride and Prejudice! I'm dying to re-read the book sometime soon but we'll see if that happens. I have so much on my reading list as it is. haha :) 

Maybe you were wondering...

Maybe you were wondering where on earth I've been or maybe you haven't even noticed that I've been gone. I've been out of town and decided not to take my computer because I didn't really want to lug it around the entire two weeks. I thought of sooo many things to blog about while I was away and now that I'm back my updates should be many.

About the Royal Wedding post. I don't have the pictures on my computer yet so it will take a bit longer to post that. I know, it's way over due and the news of the Royal Wedding has subsided but I'm going to post it anyway. :)

About that Easter dessert. Here it is! (Sorry the picture isn't that great.)
My neighbor Carol (Also mentioned below) made this extremely yummy desert. And the best part is... It's naturally gluten-free! haha Made everything even better. :)
It's called a Pavlova cake, it's made of meringue, strawberries and heavy whipping cream. Yummm. All my favourites. ;)
The cake is named after the famous and beautiful ballerina, Anna Pavlova. The dessert was created in her honer when she was traveling as a dancer. Isn't that neat?

I hope you have a wonderful wednesday!

Xoxo,
Madeline
