Sometimes I like to spend my days strolling through grocery stores looking at all the fresh produce and flowers. There is something about it that always inspires me. I can't quite explain it, but it so different to just looking at things on the internet trying to come up with new ideas. The other day was no different, I was lazily walking through Woolworths when I passed these beautiful ruby grapefruits and I knew instantly that I wanted to make something grapefruity.

I've been working with Kitchen Inspire for a while now and I honestly can't rave about them enough. Yes, their products are of course super pretty. But now that I've been using their products for the last few months I can genuinely go on about how their products are super duper practical as well. Let's be real, I've got many spatulas and whisks but I will now ALWAYS opt to use my Kitchen Inspire. They are incredibly durable and functional.
