One thing we did enjoy at the cottage were big breakfasts out on the porch. I've added some new breakfast recipes to our repertoire thanks to the event I hosted along with Brittany and Louisa last week at Williams-Sonoma Yorkdale.



The Williams-Sonoma team was kind enough to give us the run of the store and invite some of our blogger friends to try out a few recipes. Louisa made the most delicious crepes and raspberry sauce ever (seriously - go get her recipe right now!) and made it look so effortless. Tim got to try his hand at crepe making too.



Brittany demonstrated a homemade coffee and sugar scrub and treated us to a "pour-over coffee". Apparently this is the hottest thing in coffee?? I'm not in tune to coffee culture but I know it was a delicious cup of joe. Even if we drank it at 8pm and I was up past midnight, ha!


We all fell in love with the cow creamer. Isn't that the cutest way to start your day?


I did a little table styling demonstration. Williams-Sonoma has gorgeous dishware. I wish I had spotted these simple and classic black and white bistro plates before I bought my dinnerware for the cottage. They go with everything!
One styling tip I shared was to use copper measuring cups to serve maple syrup at each individual place setting. It's those little details which make your guests feel special.
