lovesome How to Eat Like Your Favorite Musicians We were rather fascinated to see the recipe for Freddie Mercury’s favorite chicken dhansak turn up on the internet recently, courtesy of his onetime personal assistant, who published the secret behind the dish at the late singer’s official website. We’re not surprised to discover that Mercury was a good cook, nor that his favorite recipe draws on his Parsi heritage — and anyway, the whole thing got us thinking about what some of our other favorite musicians might eat. Cooking is an extension of creativity, after all, and as it turns out, there’s a heap of good recipes to be found online, courtesy of musicians whose work we admire as much as their culinary skills. Freddie Mercury: Chicken dhansak Your correspondent loves Indian cooking (if you’re similarly inclined, by the way, we highly recommend Pushpesh Pant’s epic India cookbook), and as such, this is definitely going to get a whirl in the Flavorpill kitchen at some point. Remove from the saucepan and keep in a warm place.
cherished*vintage To me, the best part about Halloween, is decorating. Ya know, I never was into seasonal decorating (well...except for Christmas), until I had kids. They get so excited and that makes it so fun!Each year, I like to add something new and change things up a bit. One thing I added this year - the 'BOO' sign I painted for our front porch entry that is bat infested. Inside, I made a bare branch tree swarming with bats - scary! The girls and I cut out bats from black construction paper and hot glued them randomly to the branches. Kinda into bats this year, as you can see - ha! I'll be hosting a Halloween themed get-together next week, and wanted an easy craft for the group to do. I thought fabric pumpkins would be fun and something that everyone could enjoy through Thanksgiving. I used scraps of vintage chenille, driftwood for the stems, and felted wool sweaters for the leaves. Having all the supplies on hand was a bonus! Well, there you have it.

DIY FLOWER HEADDRESS TUTORIAL Hi guys! This is how you can make your own flower headdress like the one I wore in my last outfit post! I learned how to do this on Renaissance Day in 7th grade but mine fell apart over the years. This project is quick and easy and the combinations are limitless. Plus, they make great accessories for the springtime and would be adorable gifts to give your friends because you could even personalize it to their favorite flowers and colors. :) You will need floral wire, floral tape (preferably the rubbery kind, not the paper based kind), and pliers. You will also need an assortment of fake flowers; try buying them in various sizes, as well as buying some leaves to add variety. To begin, measure the wire around your head loosely and add a couple inches to it. Now twist the length of the wire around itself, it doesn't need to be perfect-- it just needs to stay together as one piece. Re-fit the wire around your head snugly, then add 2 inches (more if you prefer your headdress to be looser).

15 Gorgeous Wallpapers You Can’t Help But Covet The Anthropologie catalog is one of the few free ware-peddling publications in print that we actually read. Scratch that. Covet. Thanks to Renaissance Europe, there’s a sure-fire solution bringing hope to hopeless Anthropologie admirers everywhere, and it’s called wallpaper. Scrapwood Wallpaper by Piet Hein Eek Images via NLXL A Clever Use of Space A Clever Use of Space When you look at these photos, you'll be thinking what a beautiful light and spacious apartment it is.

But with a clever use of Scandinavian design - white walls, light coloured floor boards, simple yet stylish furniture pieces, black & white colour palette with a splash of bold colours for impact - it has a comfortable, roomy feel.
Homemade Nutella (Hazelnut Chocolate Spread) YES, Nutella made in your home, presumably by you, to the delight and wonderment of everyone who lives with you and gets to sample it :) This instantly shot straight to the top of my Recipes to Test list when I saw several versions of it popping up on sites like Foodgawker. My first attempt turned out a little grainy (in future more thorough blending is required), but taste-wise it was absolutely spot-on. Blend then spread as desired, or be piggy like me and eat it with a spoon :) Homemade Nutella (Hazelnut Chocolate Spread) 150g hazelnuts- Roast at 200º C for 10-15 mins until very fragrant, then rub vigorously with a cloth towel to remove as much of the skins as possible. Add and continue blending until smooth: 100g milk chocolate, melted and cooled 2 tbsp cocoa powder 1/2 cup icing sugar 1/2 tsp vanilla extract A few drops of vegetable oil Store in a jar at room temperature.
