Happy Chocolate Cake Day!

Blogger of the Day: Ana at AF ~ Ana Fernandez

Okay, I admit it...I was a Breakfast at Tiffany's style-addict for years. Every time it ran on TV I was planted in front of the set, mesmerized by Audrey Hepburn and memorizing the details of her slimmed-down couturier look. It still influences me to this day. So it's no surprise that I'm drawn to Ana's blog...dare I say she is the Audrey Hepburn of vegan Venezuela! Her impeccably photographed recipes focus on high-quality ingredients combined to create simply stunning indulgences. Her strong sense of design and culinary talents truly make these couture-worthy treats!  :)
