The Perfect Sunday

I am dreaming of my perfect sunday this week knowing that I am going to be crazy busy for most of January with school. My perfect sunday would look a little something like this:

Wake up naturally and enjoy a cup of tea in bed probably paired with a good book

Brunch with friends at my favourite little diner 

Do some window shopping. Maybe come home with a new gem. 

I'd like to end my perfect sunday, snuggled up on the couch with some mac and cheese, watching copious amounts of Netflix in fuzzy socks. 

What would your perfect sunday look like?

Tea Latte

It is no secret that I love tea. I have a cupboard full of David'sTeas and am cannot keep myself from buying the latest tea.  While I drink tea every day (multiple times a day actually) I don't usually have tea lattes and for me they are a treat. They are easy to make and some teas taste better as lattes then others. 

Here is how I usually make my lattes.  

What you'll need: 

Milk

Milk frother 

mug 

your favourite tea (I find black teas work best as lattes)

sweetener if you so choose - I like honey

either a microwave or pot and stove

 boiling water

Direction: 

Steep your tea as your normally would

Warm up milk either on the stove or in the microwave (hint: measure milk using the mug you will be using you will want it about 2/3 full of milk)

Once milk is warmed use frother to create nice and frothy milk 

Add about 1/3 steeped tea to your mug and top off with your frothy milk 

add sweetener if desired  

enjoy!

What is your favourite tea latte?

Craving: Winter Edition

It has been snowing like crazy here these past few days and I am headed to the slopes! I am super excited to spend some time outside this winter. There are some of the cozy things I have been craving this winter. 

Blanket, Book and Candle - There is nothing like curling up under a blanket reading a great book under the soft glow of a great smelling candle. One of my favourite ways to spend a cold winter day. 

Socks - My feet are ALWAYS cold. I love a good pair of warm socks. A cute pattern doesn't hurt either. 

Sweater - This hand knit sweater from Canadian Designer Granted would be perfect for winter. It looks so warm and cuddly. 

Scarf - I rarely leave the house without a scarf. All year round. This hand knit one is super cool. Not only does the zipper accent look great it is also function. Unzip the to wear it like a normal scarf or zip it up to wear as a circle scarf. Genius! 

What are you craving this winter?
