Halloween Cake Pops

Holiday Baking

Remember how I mentioned the late night baking? My friend and I made Halloween Cake Pops!
We followed the directions from Family Circle. But the flavors were Devil's food cake with mint chocolate, cinnamon swirl cake with caramel frosting and white chocolate, and lastly pumpkin cake!
Rich, but loads of fun!



We had a 4.7 earthquake here last night. 
Now I'm off for a road trip to Oregon!

Happy Halloween!

Happy Birthday Dad & Evan!

Best Week of the Year


Well it's a toss up between that and the Royal Wedding! I can't exactly explain why... just one of those feelings you get... even though I was laid off and will be 'celebrating' my last day of work tomorrow. But I'm really optimistic and feel that it is giving me that push I fully need. Don't despair, I already have lots of promising leads and truly feel that the world is my oyster at this moment in time. 



Besides, if you know me, you should know I have a few projects up my sleeve that I'm excited to share soon! Can't give it all away today though... Most importantly I'm excited for the 'time I'm being gifted' to develop them! ;)

Lastly, a little secret. I sometimes use Fortune Cookies for inspiration. They are my reinforcers to follow my dreams.
Today I received on that said: 

Your Dearest Wish Will Come True. 
I happen to think so.

6 weeks ago I got one that said:

Something Great Will Happen To You This Week. 
It did. Exactly 7 days later. 


Make This Your Best Week Too!

A first in five years!

Can you believe this! I have been blogging for five years, and this is my first ever outfit post. Oh well, there is always a first time for everything. So here goes.



This is what I wore to office today. My workplace, and my job profile as a writer does not require a formal dress code. I dress up for comfort, as Mumbai is an unpredictable city, and many a times, I have to walk home in the evenings. So footwear has to be comfortable on all days. I often carry a "shoe bag", or a flat pair of shoes to wear on my walk back home.

Bolero : A shop in Colaba, Mumbai
Tank : Zara
Bangles : From a streetside vendor in New Delhi
Jeans : Levi's
Shoes : From an export surplus store in Agra

Oh, and since we are doing Firsts, I am five followers away from 100. How about a 100 Followers Celebration Giveaway? What say, bloggers?
