update…I am going to be working on my blog design today, so forgive me if there are little hiccups here and there!
I woke up this morning thinking about chocolate. Chocolate cake, actually.
My problem is…I have become completely and unabashedly addicted to the food/life/love/everything blog, Orangette. Last night, I read her post about chocolate cake and low and behold, I can’t stop thinking about chocolate cake. So I figure the next best thing to actually baking and devouring an entire cake, would be to blog about it, right??
I am going nuts over the chic concoctions that the Vanilla Bakeshop in Los Angeles is creating…
I also love the pretty cakes that Jen’s Desserts is cooking up in Seattle…contemporary and understated. Perfect inspiration in my opinion!
Okay, I lied. There really isn’t a “next best thing” to eating and devouring a chocolate cake!

Oh wow, beautiful post, I recently discovered her blog too! I love it, so beautiful and inspiring, like yours!

That is so sweet!
Her blog is better than any book I have read lately. She has a beautiful style…and I actually think that my cooking skills are improving by osmosis or something.

Now I’m hungry! These photos are awesome, and I’m really delighted to learn about the blog Orangette. Thanks for the post and for the gorgeous pics.

Molly from Orangette is fantastic isn’t she? I’ve been reading her blog since way before I got engaged and got into any wedding blogs. Her recipe posts read like fiction stories, she’s such an engaging writer and oh. my. If you try the recipes, they are divine.
AND she’s off for 3 weeks getting married and honeymooning right now with her foodie fiance!!

Adorable! I love the Vanilla Bakeshop ones. Another food idea: since I’m serving lots of chocolate and red wine, I’m going to put prepasted toothbrushes in the bathroom; Dentist.net sells Dr Collins ones in cute colors. No guests with bad breath and stained teeth at my wedding : )
