Lime Tart with a Saltine Cracker Crust

August 5, 2022 · Leave a Comment

Lime Tart with a Saltine Cracker Crust | | Dreamery Events

Summer days are becoming hotter and hotter, no matter where you are these days. Even this self-proclaimed pie lover finds the desire to not turn on the oven amongst these sweltering days, greater than the desire to bake a pie. It’s why I’ve been baking more easier, and quicker, galettes with puff pastry, stonefruit pandowdy…

My Favorite Fresh Tomato Sauce for Any Recipe | Dreamery

I couldn’t really choose a favorite vegetable, especially one that has been homegrown with love and hand churned soil — but if I must, it is quite an easy choice — the tomato. Lovely ripe, sweet and plump with juice, and all the varieties please! I love a Kumato Brown, Golden Jubilee yellow, the smaller…

Soba Tom Yum Noodles || Dreamery Events

You know the thing I’ve been craving the most during this now almost year living in quarantine/pandemic/social-distancing … Noodles! And I mean authentic broth-y noodles that at first bite fill you with so much comfort, you don’t know what to do with yourself. And preferably Japanese or Thai noodles because those are my favorite, like…

Salted Caramel Walnut Tarte Tatin || Dreamery Events

It turns out, that while I love pie and everything about making it, many find making a pie from scratch with homemade pie dough, filling and assembling like a daunting task they couldn’t do. I say the hardest part is probably in achieving a flaky pie crust, but be kind to yourself and slowly get…

Classic Peanut Butter Ice Cream

Classic Peanut Butter Ice Cream || Dreamery Events

There are certain desserts that I wholeheartedly believe are year-long delights to bake and enjoy. Their simplistic essence that only needs a handful of ingredients to naturally and wildly transform according to the season, the ingredients available at hand or whatever imagination is setting the mood. And yet these desserts are sought out and devoured…

Vanilla Bean Panna Cotta || Dreamery Events

When quarantine first began, way back in the middle of March, the one thing I was actually looking forward to was the time to bake and cook freely for myself. Yes, I cook everyday but with my event work and holiday baking, finding the time to cook more elaborate dishes or bake sweets that I…

Watermelon, Peach + Tomato Caprese Salad || Dreamery EventsWatermelon, Peach + Tomato Caprese Salad ... the only meal you'll want this Summer! || Dreamery Events

It’s the peak of summertime, the heat lingering day after day, that soothing ultra-relaxed “let’s kick back”, celebrate this slowness — live it slowly and fully like Mother Nature intends….the kind of days I live for. In the truth it’s the mentality and lifestyle I wish everyday of the year was more like. More laidback….

Not one to be led by trends, but seems there’s a Not one to be led by trends, but seems there’s a little something we’re all looking forward to … Color! But there in lies the complex beauty of color. We connect & interpret it in so many personal ways — some of us are drawn to the beauty in the soft muted tones, while others it’s the bright rich hues. Each view & approach, a special way of embracing color✨🌿🌈And I am here for all it!

“Ikebana; the Japanese art of flower arranging t “Ikebana; the Japanese art of flower arranging that emphasizes form & balance — symbolizing the beauty & essence of all components in Nature working in harmony. Ikebana expresses strong emotions through its four principles of a fresh approach, movement, balance & harmony, while highlighting its three elements; line, color & mass. 

Ikebana designs use fewer stems that are intentionally arranged to reflect the balance of opposing elements. Ikebana floral art is a reflection of the person creating it & its evolving story.”
……
This year I’m challenging myself each month to create a design. Whether it be a centerpiece or tablescape, I want to expand & challenge my creativity, skills & ever-flowing ideas. It’s a perfect way for me to create for the sake of creating while inspiring you with joyful pieces & help others see unlikely designs with a new perspective. 

I was naturally drawn to the traditional artform of Ikebana, for it takes the simplest elements & transforms them into designs that evoke an immense emotion. For me there is so much power & beauty in that, but also why I think it’s not as understood or appreciated as elaborate floral designs. 

I stumbled upon this forgotten small blue & white dish, thought how perfect it would be to capture the story of “Winter Blues” — not the sadness of the bitter season, but the emotion of a fresh clean slate where Nature is bare, minimal & calm, yet open to all the possibilities of the unknown … using a few sprigs of Blue Thistle & the inspiration of Ikebana intentions, this tiny delight was made💙

Dreamery is a bespoke event and floral design brand focusing on gatherings of all sizes, stylings, home, decor and the limitless creative projects yet to be envisioned. Nature, travel, old world treasures & slow living are my constant inspiration.
