Chocolate Chunk Blondies

lark-linen_chocolate-chunk-blondies_texI wasn’t sure there was anything that could rival a brownie, but as it turns out their lighter toned counterparts are all kids of awesome. I feel as if all you really need to know about this recipe is that I whipped them up to bring up to the cottage a few weekends ago and there were only a few survivors upon our arrival. In our defense, there were 6 of us in the car at the time, and the drive WAS practically three hours long. And in all honesty, I’m sincerely proud of us for making them last as long as they did! They’re truly just. that. good.

It’s now been five years since I originally stumbled upon the wonderful world of blogging.  At the time, I only followed a handful of talented ladies, most of whom still proudly remain on my reader.

House Envy: Sweet Thing’s Californian Abode

1JesseSo you know when you “meet” someone that simply oozes talent, beauty, and grace all at the same time? And you kind of want to dislike them but it’s completely impossible because they’re also the sweetest, warmest people… ever? Well, as far as I’m concerned, that right there is Miss Jessie Webster (you may remember she held down my SFMW post last week, and totally and completely killed it). And this right here is her home.

When I stumbled upon it on Design*Sponge not long ago, I simply had to share it. Because it’s good. Like, really good. And I knew right then and there that I wanted it to have a place on my pages so that I could remember it forever and always. It just feels Jessie – warm and inviting, unique and intriguing, without the slightest hint of predictability. I’m now more confident than ever that this girl can do it all.
