currently craving: vanilla


Maybe it's the chill in the air, but something about winter makes me crave warm vanilla.  Luckily, you don't have to cheat on your New Year's diet in order to satisfy a sweet tooth.

Nerdy sidenote of the day: vanilla is derived from orchids.  Who knew?

I want the candle and the cards. And then I want a hot vanilla-soy milk. Did not know the fact about vanilla.

I had no idea vanilla is derived from orchids??? Cool! I put vanilla extract in everything I can from pancakes to my buttercream! For the holidays, Bath & Body Works had a Lavender & Vanilla candle that I bought and it smelled so good!! =)
