I’ve been a boating fan ever since I was little. I grew up playing on the dock at my Aunt and Uncle’s cottage, catching fish (and turtles!), tubing, and loving when we were able to take their boat out and speed around, especially when I got to sit up front and hit allll the waves!…
Moab Travel Guide
Moab, Utah attracts visitors from all over the world. It’s definitely an outdoor playground featuring national parks, world class mountain biking trails, and so many other outdoor activities that can be as low key or as wild as you want them to be. It’s a small town, packed full of personality and adventure. There’s a…
Chic Gardening Supplies
We’re knee deep in gardening season and at the moment I’m just trying to keep everything from burning to a crisp (thanks 100 degree days). I really enjoy spending time outside tending to my plants, but especially when I have all the right tools to help me get the job done. Today, I’ve rounded up…
Portuguese Dinner Party Playlist
I’m a firm believer that the right playlist can set the mood and tone for an event. It doesn’t have to be anything complex and the event doesn’t have to be a big one to create a memorable moment. Something as simple as a dinner party is still a perfect opportunity to wow your guests….
Portuguese Dinner Party: Main Course and Desserts
If you missed part one from this Portuguese dinner party, head on over here to grab the recipes for a couple of different appetizers and a yummy little cocktail. I also shared a little bit about what went into the table design and a few things Portugal is known for. But today we’re focusing on…
Portuguese Dinner Party: Cocktails and Appetizers
This week I’m taking you guys on a trip to Portugal. No, not to the actual country of Portugal, but helping you experience a little taste of what it’s all about through food and drinks (and dessert, of course). Before I moved to Charlotte, I hosted a Portuguese dinner party for a few friends and…
Summer Sandals
The 80’s and 90’s were good to me, because they gave me the infamous jelly sandal. I wore those jellies into the ground and had a few different colors. Pink, purple, and my favorite frosty (semi-sheer) gray pair. I lived in those babies from May to September. And apparently I haven’t outgrown my jelly love,…
New Orleans Travel Guide
New Orleans is a hard city to put into words. It’s definitely unique and full of history, culture, scandal, and personality. LOTS of personality. But it was on my travel bucket list for two different reasons. Food and music. Since we weren’t taking any international trips this year, it seemed like a great time to…
We’re Back! (With a New Website!)
Honestly, I have no clue where the last year and a half went. Not only was the world dealing with an insane pandemic, but our everyday routines changed, social lives changed, jobs changed, my wardrobe changed (sweat pants for life), AND on top of all that we were knee deep and living in the middle…
Christmas Cocktail Party Playlist
Christmas is right around the corner and although I won’t be shaking up festive drinks or making fancy appetizers for friends this year, I’m still going to imagine the party that will be going down next year, complete with this Christmas cocktail party playlist blaring through the speakers! And, until then, I’m going to dance…
