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…
Printable Holiday ‘Elf’ Coffee Gift Card Holder
I’ve been trying to share this project for the last week, but I’ve been dealing with rainy and overcast weather here in Charlotte and the lighting just wasn’t cooperating. But I finally got a break and was able to shoot the printable holiday ‘Elf’ coffee gift card holder this morning, just in time for all…
Printable Winter Activity Checklist
I’m one of those people that lives for a holiday (you either love us or hate us). I’m the friend who’s always planning new activities, looking up fun events, or planning a new adventure, all while simultaneously trying to get everyone else to go and do them with me. I try to squeeze in as…
