Since technology hasn’t quite gotten there yet, this will have to do:

Let’s play with our imaginations…take a deep inhale through your nose just like pilates breathing, and put yourself in my kitchen!!

If your mouth is now watering, continue scrolling…

There is just nothing like the smell of cinnamon baking away in the oven. These beauties pretty much smell like a lazy Saturday morning with coffee in hand.

*The recipe for the rugelach pinwheels is adapted from MS, and made with crescent roll dough. Note: I’ve made the homemade dough too, an it dances in your mouth!

I am such a morning person. I love more than anything getting up early, and my definition of early is like 5am or so. No one else is really up yet, and the world is kind of yours! It is peaceful and calming. This is my “me time”. I do my quiet time, watch the sun come up, go to the gym, drink an a.m. cup of coffee, etc. I really do believe that I can accomplish more between the hours of 5am-7am than I can in a whole entire day! Crazy, I know, but it really is true. Well, this morning I ran across some great kitchen pictures (probably my favorite part of a house) on Martha Stewart’s website. Yes, I love Martha Stewart! So, how awesome would it be to have your very own cappuccino counter in your kitchen? A grand machine, and two grinders for fresh ground coffee beans-decaf and caffeinated! The top of the machine even keeps the Italian cups warm! I especially take notice of the teapots on the upper right-hand shelf!
