A few of my favorite things

I have been a failure in the blogosphere lately.  To be quite honest with you, I am completely uninspired when it comes to baking.  Lately I have only been inclined to bake goodies that I have already made.  No good I tell you!  I need to step up my game a bit!

While I am not baking, though, I will share with you a few of my favorite things. 

It is finally spring!  (Knock on wood)  Fresh spring flowers always add some life and color to the home - and in this case, the apartment.  I found these beautiful spring flowers at Trader Joe's.

I went on Sunday, and TJ's is a complete madhouse on the weekends.  There were probably about six bouquets left, and I was lucky enough to find this beautiful bouquet!

Another one of my favorite things, as of late, is eating a deliciously satisfying meal of cheese (tonight it was Brie, the other night it was Gruyere), a baguette, and fruit (tonight it was blackberries and asparagus, the other night it was a  D'Anjou pear).  And who can forget the wine?!  This meal is my latest simple pleasure.  I love it even more because it is so European!  And to feel even more European, I like to bike home from the grocery store with a baguette  sticking out of my bag.  I know I am only in Mpls (which - don't get me wrong - is fantastic), but a girl can dream, right?!

Now, inspire me!  What should I bake next?! 

Cheers!
