Taking the First steps :: Fluffy Friday

 

Welcome to our new friday FUN! Fluffy Friday! Fluffy Friday is all about the FLUFF of my life, things that have NOTHING to do with my business, but things I want to talk about, or share with you, or get off my chest. I spend a lot of time on Pinterest, I have a feeling a lot will come from those trials and {tribulations} successes!

So, they say the first step to solving your addiction is admitting you have a problem, so here I am. Internet World, I have an addiction… to food… all kinds of food. Good for your foods, bad for you foods, Sweets, salties, you name it, and I love it. Pair it with a fabulous glass of wine {French Rose is my current fave} and I am in heaven- literally! This addiction wouldnt be so bad…but it seems its making my pants too small! OH the frustration!

If you follow me on facebook, or the blog, you know Mark and I just returned from Paris, and that has only fed my addiction. All the yummys Mark and I had while we there, are now being replicated in my kitchen. And those French, well they use some butter…and some bread!

Some of the recent Faves…

Filet with Bernaise- yeah, its as decadent as it sounds. Paired with a glass of bubbly, it was tres magnifique! {recipes from Barefoot Contessa}

Back to school cake, and pastries in France. If I could duplicate the latter I would…and then BATHE in it!

macarons and Goat cheese salad- Both is Paris. I wish I could find macarons like this here, I am on the hunt. I am going to attempt my own once the humidity drops, stay tuned for the disaster!

As you can see, there is no shortage of rich food- and thats how we get to FLUFFY, because thats what I am getting! Fortunately, a lot of days its just a salad, but then I seem to feel like something is missing in my day. So maybe fluffy is not so bad, maybe it means I am happy, and FULL and yeah it may mean my arteries are clogged…

Sigh… off to the Foody addiction meeting, hosted at Dunkin Doughnuts…with a chicken salad sandwhich…I give up!
