Super Easy Recipe

My friend Sarai made this super easy slice the other weekend, and what a winner!  This Nigella recipe is sure to be a hit and I just had to try it out tonight.  Anyone working with me tomorrow is in for a treat :), the salty chocolaty mix is to die for and I am bringing it all into the office.


Salty Crunchie Chocolate Bars


Ingredients:
200 grams of dark chocolate
100 grams of milk chocolate
125 grams of unsalted butter
3 tablespoons of golden syrup
250 grams of salted peanuts
150 grams (approx) of broken up Crunchie bars (I whizzed them in a food processor)
1 lined slice tin (doesn't matter what size, just depends how thick you want the slice)


Method:
Melt chocolate (you can use all dark or all milk if you prefer), butter and golden syrup on low heat, be careful not to burn it!


Place the peanuts and broken up Crunchie bars in a large bowl.


Pour melted mix on the top and combine.  Spread out on a tray to desired thickness and refrigerate.  Once set, cut into squares.


Easy.  Even I can make it.

My most favourite

My most favourite apartment is that of interior designer Campion Platt.  His New York loft is surprisingly super feminine and is pretty much styled so that I could move straight in.

Enjoy the fabulousness:


The black fireplace adds a touch of masculinity

The sitting area in the master bedroom.  Yes, the bedroom...

A reading nook
Dining room, and the chairs are my only criticism of this space.
A super sparkly kitchen

You can also purchase Campions' book "Made to Order" from Amazon.com, which also features how he put together his apartment, along with some of his other projects.

Cozamia Art

You may have seen Nancy Ramirez's prints appearing in interior images all over the internet.  They are a beautiful mix of pattern, shape and femininity that would make a real statement in your home.  As a big fan of affordable art work, I am really excited by her designs, and currently have my eye on her "Night Peonies" work.


Here are some highlights:
