Peanut Butter Cheesecake

I know I shouldn't, but I really want one....

Nom nom nom

Thankfully (for my waistline), this little baby is only available in a shop in New Jersey.... But look at it go... It has Reese's peanut butter cups on top of it, next to whipped cream. I think this should be called Death by Peanut Butter (It's actually called Peanut Butter perfection).

It was made by a mother/son team who have a shop called Sweet Indulgences in New Jersey.
They can be found at:


There you can find a gallery of their delicious cakes.



Yes, those are brownies on top of a cheesecake! :D

Forever 21 and New Look

A new Forever 21 shop is going to open in Dublin tomorrow. I believe it is the first store they are opening in Europe and I'm very excited. My friend Rachel and I are going to go visit the new store tomorrow! There is also a new New Look in the the same building so we're going to have a shopping day. We're also going to go visit Ikea so we're covering a lot of ground :)

I was looking at the Forever 21 website and they have a lot of nice things. Here are a few that I really liked :) 


I love this dress,  I probably wouldn't wear it like that, most likely with some tights and boots (like the brown ones below) and a cardigan. Love the colour!



I am a bag person (as well as many other things, hats, scarves, shoes, and so on) and I know I really shouldn't be buying more bags, because I really do have enough, but I love these two. Nowadays I tend to only buy bags that will fit my laptop because I bring it with me everywhere. Those would be perfect for college :)

I love these boots, love the colour, love the slight heel. They're very Sydney Fox (Relic Hunter) and I love Sydney Fox!




I thought these were very clever, I love peacock feathers, the problem is that they are very delicate, the rim would be a good way of not damaging them.



I love stripes! The colour combination is lovely in this dress although it is a bit short...


Tomorrow should be lots of fun

Lace brownies

I saw these brownies yesterday and knew that these were the brownies for me. It looks delicious and looks amazing! The woman who designed this cake was asked to do it for Dolce & Gabbana (I didn't know there was designer cakes!), well, for their online magazine. She drew her inspiration from the Fall 2010/2011 runway show.





The article can be found here:  (http://swide.com/luxury-magazine/Life/Food/brownie-recipe/2010/10/30)

And her recipe here: http://cafefernando.com/brownies-for-dolce-gabbana/

I am definitely going to try this one out; although I probably will skip the several attempts at making a beautiful lattice of tempered chocolate, I don't think I'd have the patience!
