Guess what landed on my desk this morning?

I am so excited for you girls to see it. This year’s diary features the super duper cute illustrations of Raine Sarmiento (check out her adorable blog here) and has tons of stickers too! Have you gotten your copy already? Tweet or instagram us a pic @candymagdotcom!

Love,
Steph

Exhibit A: Marla’s post about what we talk about during breaks. And I quote: “Food (usually while consuming food).”

Here’s some that I can’t stop talking/thinking/daydreaming about. Disclaimer: these were eaten on different days. :)

1. Chorizo and Mushroom Risotto from Early Bird Breakfast Club.
Macy told me I would love this and she was right! I love risotto and I have intense cravings for these once in awhile. I once had risotto for 3 days straight.

2. Croque Madame from Wildflour Cafe and Bakery.
Ham + gruyere cheese + egg. Yum.

3. Pork Chop Fried Rice from Shi Lin.
We are huge fans of the Xiao Long Bao, but we always find ourselves ordering this too.

4. Red Velvet Cupcakes from Cupcake Lab.
Mimi, Koko, and I are always finding ways to get to Podium for these. Hahaha!

Share your foodie discoveries with me?

AKA the Instagram Photo Dump

1. MT Washi Tape from Patty who’s back from her trip!
2. Rainy Day Fund pouch from Bianca, makes me really want to save for a rainy day.
3. New skincare always makes me feel giddy inside! Hada Labo Super Hyaluronic Acid lotion from Hello Tomodachi and Cure Natural Aqua Gel from Beauty Bar.
4. New shoes. Nothing excites me more than a new pair of shoes.

Ever get bored of eating at the same places? I do, so I am often in search of new restaurants to try. I stumbled upon The Clubhouse recently before catching a movie at Robinsons Magnolia. Little did I know that it was owned and operated by Shar, Candy‘s former fashion editor. :) The interiors of the place reminded me of the show Shabby Chic, it was all so pretty and light and airy. And the food? I loved the Vigan Potato Hash, Chicken Salad Croissant, and the Carrot Cake was to die for.  Can’t wait to hang out more at this new restaurant find.

The Clubhouse is located at Robinsons Magnolia.

Marla and I went to Etude House’s Sweet Recipe Collection launch last Wednesday. We felt transported into wonderland with these super cute displays. We learned that the collection was inspired by the fairy tale Hansel and Gretel, so we saw sweet candies, cupcakes, chocolates, and jellybeans all around. Here are some of our favorite things from the event.

We found these ice cream nail polishes so kawaii.

These Dear My Jelly lips lipsticks are super moisturizing and gives a sheer hint of color.

These Sweet Recipe Cupcake All Over Color would be great for lazy girls because it’s a lip, cheek, and eye color in one.

This Baby Choux Base is a good primer for those with acne-prone skin.

And look at these cotton candy cotton puffs! TDF!

Don’t you just want them all? I know I do!

Kawaii Girl at Heart,
Steph

The Sweet Recipe Collection will be available by April at all Etude House stores.
