Happy Easter!!!

It's Easter weekend and you know what that means.....


Decorating Easter eggs!!!!!!







And Easter cupcakes....

And writing my name on everyone's Easter eggs in wax so that they don't notice until they have already dunked it in the dye ... hehehehehe.


And Easter egg hunts!!!
I don't have any pictures of that this time but ya know.
My hair today,

 
 The yummy breakfast I had today! These are French Toast muffins.
 That's right, FRENCH TOAST MUFFINS. Did you get that?
You make a pancake batter and spoon it into the muffin tray and bake for about 10 minutes, or until puffy and not doughy, a toothpick should come out clean. (like a  pancake!) Then melt butter, add vanilla and mix it. In a separate bowl mix cinnamon and sugar. There is no need to wait for the muffins to cool before starting. Dip the muffins into the butter/vanilla mixture then dab in the cinnamon sugar coating. Enjoy! They are amazing and literally so fast and easy to make! In about 15-20 minutes you have a delicious breakfast. I had mine with coffee and a banana. SO GOOD.

Have a great Easter with your families!

My Trip to The Byward Market


In my hometown there is a market downtown where you can find just about everything.
There is little stalls where you can buy bracelets, rings, clothes, necklaces and key chains. You can see my shadow on the rings display!


 
But the biggest seller in the market is the pure Canadian maple syrup. If anyone has never had pure maple sypup, go get some. There is nothing wrong with the Aunt Jemima syrup but the pure maple is too good for words and since it's so rich and sweet you don't use as much so it lasts longer!!

Yes, these are maple syrup lollipops and yes, they are so good!
Here are some different shots of the market!
 Pony rides!!!!
 The different stalls.
 some shops around the market.
The logo and the sign for the byward market you see them all over.
 THE BEST STORE IN THE MARKET. It's called the Tea Store and it's a tea lounge where you can sit and drink different flavors of tea!
 YES, I found the line up of Yorkshire Gold, my favourite all time tea.
 Walls and walls of pure heaven.
 Tea was everywhere!
There were so many beautifully painted china mugs and tea pots. My favourite was this one below.
It was handpainted and so gorgeous.
I went to eat at The Aulde Dunbliner pub with my family.
 It's cozy and a great place to watch the game! Their sweet potato fries are so yummy!! there's an upstairs and a downstairs and the patio is so nice and you can just sit and watch people pass by.
My spring coat! I'm in need of a new one but I love the bright colour! :)

 Menchie's is a frozen yogurt place where you pick your own toppings. It's delicious.
 You can't pass up the opportunity to try a Beaver Tail. They are sort of like donuts but are long and skinny and have brown sugar and cinnamon in them. My favourite has lemon with it, it's to die for.

 Cute places we went to visit on our trip. The bakery was tiny but smelled awesome.
 The tea I got at the Tea Store to try, Vanilla and Peach tea, cool!!
Sugar Mountain, a classic. My family goes there about twice a year. It is basically every different kind of candy imaginable. They have lollipops with bugs in them (real ones!), every flavour of jelly beans, even the gross ones!, chocolate bars with funky things inside and things from all over the world like the United States or the UK.
Side note, I saw this in the market as we walked by sugar mountain, it was on a board outside a different shop.
Obama cookies???????? Weird yet pretty cool. I mean what president has their own cookies?
Well, that is what I did today! I also decorated some Easter eggs that I'll post later.
Now it's off to finish my resume so I can hopefully apply as a camp counsellor ! woo!

The comfiest pants in the world

I have found the softest, warmest and coziest pj pants ever. Even though it is warming up here in Ottawa and the weather has been amazing this past weekend and few days.
There has never been a comfier pant made! They even have pockets!! Bonus!!!
No one likes waiting up, but these make it a little bit sweeter.......
So does having a breakfast made for champions! That right there is the best breakfast I've had in a while!
I'm a tea addict and this is the best tea cozy in the world, just so you know.
My mom surprised me later today by making a YUMMY chai tea latte type thing, delicious. As you can tell I love tea, coffee, food and clothes.....
It hit the spot. A perfect way to end a colder pre-spring night.


I tried to take a picture of the moon but it didn't turn out nicely, it looked so cool in real life! The moon was huge and you could really see the man on the moon!! hahahah!
Little white blur....... It's the moon I promise!

***Errrm, I tried to send this a while ago but it didn't work and I never noticed, oops!

NEW SHOES/Music i'm obsessed with

I've been in need of good running shoes for a while and I finally went to The Running Room and got some!!


Nike Free 3.0? I don't know. They are so comfortable and such great shoes !! I completely love them ! There is no need to break them in at all, which I love, and they are easy to run in with a really flexible sole..... also they are very PRETTY. Flashy and have really nice colours.
There's a black and purple kind too but they have a tongue where these don't, they are like socks, they just slip on.


On a side note, I am obsessed with this song right now, it's Serbian/Italian
It's called Italiana by Severina feat FM Band

She sings in Serbian and the guy sings in Italian. This song is so hype.
This is also a really good one!! I'm currently listening to right now, hehe.

Jos Samo Nocas by Milan Dincic Dinca ft Full Strike
He's so attractive.

This one reminds me of summer/vacations,

Mi Nina Bonita Letra


One more !!!

Ai Se Eu Te Pego by Michel Telo ft Pitbull

The one above is literally my favourite, soooooo catchy!

'Baby, baby I wanna get to know ya'

Ahhhh it's my jam! Send me any good songs you know from other countries! I have tons of Italian, Serbian and Spanish songs.

I lied, one last one in Spanish and it is too cute! (and gets stuck in my head all the time!)

Mi Reina by Henry Mendez

You have to wait a bit until it gets really good, the beginning is a bit slow but at like 30 seconds it gets dancey and amazing and just makes you wanna move. haha it's really good and I love it!!

Currently I'm loving this kind of music as the English music is sounding all the same. I'm in love with Indian music, I'm currently trying to find the best ones, maybe I will do a post about them, mmmm. :)

Let me know songs that have caught your attention and you rock out to. hahaahaha
