she bakes: russian fudge

There isn't much to say about this one. Russian fudge is my favourite kind of fudge and nothing beats a home made batch. I used this recipe which yielded perfect results. Word of warning - don't attempt to use the low fat condensed milk. I attempted to use the low fat version and it didn't amalgamate properly. Not sure why but I haven't risked using it again. Just figure that if you're going to eat fudge you may as well do it right. 

she shops: poppin tags

I found this crop top at the recycle boutique when I was living in Palmerston North and I only just rediscovered it in my wardrobe now. i haven't worn it yet and now I'm so keen to whip it out. It's such delicate fabric and it's made in New Zealand which is even better. And all for only $8!
