I smell Thursday

For smelly Thursday, I had a really hard time not going super literal. The first things that comes to mind when you think of the sense of scent are flowers and food. I went with it because my creative juices are apparently spent tonight.

This is Nate’s boutonniere from the wedding on Saturday. I love orchids and this one is beautiful. It almost looks fake, but it’s not.

Funny story about when I met hubby… I actually didn’t know how to cook. There are many things I had never tasted let alone cooked (including avocado, lobster, mussels, squash, beets the list really goes on and on). Garlic is not something I ever learned to cook with until I met him. He uses it in everything and now I do too. In fact, we usually double the amount in a recipe because we love it so much.

    I think that my raspberry cream recipe didn’t call for enough raspberry. Oh well. Yours looks fantastic! Such pretty colors.

    Thanks!! The raspberry cream was a lot runnier than the vanilla, but it was tasty.

    The raspberry cream has such a wonderful color! So bold against the neutral eclair.

    Your eclairs turned out really well! I love the pink of the raspberry pastry cream against the glaze.
