I LOVE it when days feel like weekends and they just happen to be Tuesdays :) Work seemed to fly by yesterday with the promise of an evening down in NoDa with friends and delicious fish tacos to look forward to. It was gorgeous outside all day and since the sunshine was so yummy, I find it only fitting to start this blog with dessert! The end of our night was spent getting lost in Amelie's bakery. We went in for Salted Caramel Brownies and left with muffins for the morning and sweet smiles. Erica and I fell in love....what an adorable place! I felt like we had walked right into Alice's Wonderland and I could have spent hours enjoying every detail.
When you walk in the front door, you come face to face with an incredible sculpture chandelier. It is made of pots, pans, utensils and gadgets and it is the focal point of the front room of the bakery. I am already excited to find a reason to go back!
I am just completely obsessed with all of the decor...it made me miss Paris!
We were good kids though and did have our dinner before we indulged in dessert. We picked up Erica and Steve and headed down to NoDa while the sun was still up. Tyler and Steve enjoyed a drink at the bar in Cabo Fish Taco where we eventually all met back up for dinner. Erica and I walked around and she kept me company while I snapped pictures of the great colors, grafitti art filled walls and vibe that embodies NoDa. We made a quick shopping stop and found some great vintage boots for Erica while we were out. Dinner was delicious and being the only one of the four of us to never have eaten there, I can finally understand the excitement! Here are a few shots of the area...I thought maybe I would turn his frown...upside down :)
Adorable pictures! What a great looking bakery!
