I had a blog before the hipsters did.

The Truth is...

...anyone can blog.

Macarooni and Cheese

I'd just like to say that I am feeling a little hostile about this macaroon adoration trend that seems to be sweeping the blogosphere.



I had my first macaroon back in 2009, and I'll admit I had no idea what they were before then. Also, I had a real macaroon, at a real macaroon shop in France. I had to see it to believe it,  because with my limited French and a broken English attempt at explaining 'ze leetle colour candies' filled with creamy mousse, one had to taste it to believe it.

Since then macaroons have been popularised by Blair Waldorf in Gossip Girl, who eats them when she's feeling bratty. And of course, every female blogger from here to Seoul seems to have developed a penchant for these delightful meringue confections, and blogs about them too.

Manna from Brooklyn

Possibly my new favourite blog, Manna From Brooklyn proves that life can be captured in its smallest quirks, from the word 'ejaculate' in literature, to lentil-walnut burgers and visits to MOMA.

There is manna all around us, not just in Brooklyn.

the Blogger's Essentials

The Blogger's Essentials
Having a blog is as commonplace nowadays as having a smartphone, or lipgloss, or a pair of gladiators. Actually, having a blog has become such a must-have for aspiring (as well as wannabe) fashion editors, satorialists, thrift scavengers, photographers and boutique owners that every jane, stacey and lou seem to have one.
if you haven't caught on already, here's a list of essentials to get you started.

• a decent camera, digital or polaroid.
• an eye for a bargain
• a laptop
• high-speed internet connection
• a local and favourite cafe where you can slurp coffee loudly and make satirical blog posts about what passersby are wearing.
• a Vida e caffe loyalty card
• a love of couture
• patience and perseverance
