I just moved to Pittsburgh a couple months ago and we’re still getting the apartment settled. Today I hung up a letterpress drawer (font: bodoni campanile) I scored at the Good Deal Garage in Chicago for only $10! I love the deals they have at that place. 
So I finally hung it up and put some of my treasures in it :) The animal names are actually stamps I’ve had since forever that just happen to fit in there perfectly. 
I’m excited to continue unpacking and finding new items to house in it!

I made these cookies today on a whim. They turned out GREAT! The recipe is from smittenkitchen.com. They don’t call them “crispy chewy chocolate chip cookies” for no reason - they were exactly that. Such a good combination. The only thing I did differently than the recipe was use a shaved milk chocolate peanut butter bar instead of semi-sweets. 
I just made them today and they are almost gone. We’ll see how they hold up tomorrow!
