Fall has arrived in Vancouver! We had a great start to it with almost two full weeks of SUN! If you've ever lived in Vancouver, you know this is a big deal. If you haven't, well, we get our fair share of rain. More than our fair share, actually. We get two months of sunshine in the summer, if we're lucky, and the rest is rain. So sunshine in fall is a big deal.
The boots have been brought out. The cozy sweaters have been brought out. The scarves have been brought out. The knee high socks have been brought out. All of them.
That's right. You heard me. Knee high socks. Love 'em. It started out with one pair that I would secretly wear under my jeans on really cold days. Then, ever so slowly, they started to make public appearances. They would peek out from under my gumboots sometimes. Or maybe I'd wear boots and tights with my knee highs.Then I got bold. I started wearing them... with dresses! There's not many occasions where you can wear a dress and knee high socks and look appropriate, but I think I pulled it off.

Well, the first post of my new blog. I thought it would be too easy to start up a blog. Everyone's doing it, so how hard can it be? Very hard, actually! Although I consider myself a pretty solid home baker, I've never been much of a photographer, let alone a food stylist. I had to make quite a few test subjects (which were happily eaten once the photo shoot was done) before I was comfortable enough putting photos up! The fact that my boyfriend is a photo genius helped a lot, too. Don't even get me started on HTML because all I know is hex colour codes. All in all, it was a bit haphazard and spur of the moment, but I think it's turned out alright.
I present to you, dear reader, the first recipe of Cioccolato etc., Chocolate Bites. Simple, yet delicious. These little babies are quite rich, so if you're tempted to eat half a dozen, pour yourself a big glass of milk. What's cookies without milk, anyways?
These cookies are a nice little punch for those moments when you're just craving some chocolatey goodness. They're not too hard and, apart from chilling out in the fridge for an hour, they don't take too long to make.
