Desperately Seeking Inspiration:

Stems from the farmer's market bring the smell of Spring to my beside table. 

      To put matters bluntly, I have been feeling very uninspired as of late. Typically a simple trip to the grocery store or farmer's market ignites a creative culinary thought. Organizing my closet usually leads to finding old items that feel like new once they have been rediscovered. However, none of my usual tactics for finding inspiration have worked. Perhaps it's my new school work load or the recent loss in my family but I have not felt up to the idea of creating much of anything interesting to share with you all. Instead of forcing the issue further, I have instead collected a few images that I hope will remind me of how vivacious life can be.

Painting vintage brooches for added color and style. 

A delicious way to eat your vegetables. Pea and carrot candy.

Watching my boyfriend sketch is always captivating.

Sugar cookies that not only taste good but smile back at you!

A burning Santa Cruz sunset, complete with
colors that would make any artist swoon.

      To all of my inspiring readers, how do you keep yourself creative and motivated?

Yours,

Nico
