As a cold climate lover I've been pleased with the recent spout of wet weather. There's something about the misty breath, cozy fabrics and hot beverages that makes me feel so completely comfortable in winter. Perhaps it's my European heritage, or fond memories growing up in the snow-covered streets of Portland, but winter holds a special place in my heart.
Last weekend we strolled the stormy promenade, gloved hand in hand. We passed through the empty puddle-filled park, rounding the lighthouse, stopping briefly to take a seat on a bench between the putt-putt and the sea. The cold biting air reminded me of Paris but the gray waters and salty air kept me rooted at home.
On the work front the husband and I have made some progress on another project. It seems my penchent for design and his development skills were a match made in start-up heaven. Four years ago I'd have never had said that one of our greatest strengths would be our ability to work together. While it's another work in progress, much like everything else, I can only feel more excited about the months to come and the success they may hold.
From my side I added a new design to the shop earlier this week! Inspired by the beautiful Laduree packaging, my Patisserie suite pays homage to the delightful French brand.
