Planning My Ideal Brunch with Paperless Post!

Picture from Timoteo

We are already in September which is my favourite month of the year, basically because of two things: spring is coming, which means, warmer days outside in the sun, flowers everywhere and more opportunities to go out with my friends, and also because it is my birthday month! ;)
So, I have started to think about different ways to celebrate it and I came across the idea of hosting my own brunch, with my friends and family. I really love having breakfast, it is one of the things I enjoy the most and I also really think it's a very fun and original idea.
The great thing about hosting your own event is that you can add a lot of your personality to it, in many different aspects
So, If I had to think about what my ideal brunch would include, in regards to the menu, I'm a very traditional person I like simple but tasty food, so I would definitely go with some chocolate croissants, scons with lemon curd (I love lemon!), bagels, pancakes, yogurt and lots of fresh fruits! Of course, I would also include champagne to finish with a birthday toast!

Another important thing to make my brunch more special and personal are the invitations. I think it's very nice to let your friends and family know that you're preparing this gathering by sending them a cute invitation card. While doing some research on this, I found Paperless Post, a website in which you can choose the perfect invitation for your event, whether it is a brunch, a dinner, a barbecue, a pool party, everything is covered! They have a large variety of desings to pick and also you can choose if you want to send them online, which is always faster and eco friendly but in case you are more traditional and want to send paper invitations you can do it too!
So, browsing through their webpage I found my perfect brunch invitation, I think this one really reflects my classic idea of a brunch and I really find the food designs very cute and tempting ;)

Last but not the least, the table decoration is another very important aspect. I think for my ideal brunch I would definitely choose very simple tableware, probably everything white to make sure the food stands out so it looks better for Instagram pictures and I would probably add some color with the napkins and flowers.

I hope you like these brunch ideas!

Buenos Aires Celebrates Italy

Argentina es un país que tiene mucha diversidad cultural. Durante muchos años en el pasado, el país ha recibido inmigrantes de todas partes del mundo que han enriquecido su cultura. Esto es visible en cualquier ciudad pero especialmente en Buenos Aires, donde muy a menudo se realizan festivales de las distintas comunidades. Estos festivales son una gran forma de conocer de una forma más cercana las diferentes culturas y países y tomar contacto con su música, sus comidas y su historia. En mi caso particular, parte de mi familia vino de Italia, así que ayer fuimos a la celebraciónd e Italia a comprar algunos productos típicos italianos muy ricos. Les dejo algunas fotos que tomé del evento, espero que les gusten! :)

This is visible in any city but mainly in Buenos Aires, where every once in a while there are festivals from the different communities. These festivals are a great way to get to know more closely the different cultures and countries, and to get in touch with their music, their food and history. In my particular case, part of my family comes from Italy, so yesterday we went to the celebration from Italy to buy some very good typical italian foods. I share with you some of the pictures I took and I hope you like them! :)

Había crepes, croissants, macarons, baguettes, diferentes tipos de queso, helados, licuados y tragos, así como también artistas y música en vivo! Una gran forma de experimentar la cultura francesa, espero que les gusten las fotos!!! :)
