Whole Foods: Grand Opening

While my hometown had a Whole Foods, it wasn’t a place we shopped very often. When I was little, I remember it being the store that always had free samples, but as I grew older and began shopping for groceries myself, I always thought of it as the expensive store that had lots of organic… Continue reading Whole Foods: Grand Opening

Eat Here: Izu Sushi

Sushi is easily one of my favorite foods especially with the weather warming up. It’s so light and filling, making it perfect for summertime. Recently, my family and I went to Izu Sushi in Lansdale, PA and it instantly has become my go-to sushi place in the area. We were there around lunch time on a… Continue reading Eat Here: Izu Sushi

Drink This: White Whiskey Lemonade

With last weekend’s summer-like weather, I was able to break out my patio furniture and fire up the grill for the first time this year. Nothing says summer like a fruity cocktail, so I decided this would be the perfect chance to try out my new Vodka Zinger drink infuser and the J. Potts White Whiskey I… Continue reading Drink This: White Whiskey Lemonade

All Things Lilly: From Target Launch to Summer Line

I sit here proudly saying that I survived the Lilly For Target launch of 2015, well sort of. There may be some underlying emotional damage from trying to stay up all night to tackle the online sale and then getting up early to take on the actual store. I’m sure many of you know that… Continue reading All Things Lilly: From Target Launch to Summer Line

Kentucky Derby Dessert: Derby Pie Macarons

I have to admit that I’ve never really celebrated the Kentucky Derby, mostly because the first weekend in May is typically reserved for Cinco de Mayo festivities. I decided to change that this year though. The more I researched Kentucky Derby parties, the more I realized that I have been missing out. One of the… Continue reading Kentucky Derby Dessert: Derby Pie Macarons

How To: Throw a Game of Thrones Themed Dinner

Last Sunday in honor of the 5th Season Premier of Game of Thrones, I had a few friends over for dinner. Since I am a sucker for themed dinners, I decided the entire meal would need to be inspired by the series. After browsing Pinterest for longer than I care to admit, I settled on a… Continue reading How To: Throw a Game of Thrones Themed Dinner

Eat Here: Bowen’s Island Restaurant

I’m only slightly embarrassed to say, that I first found out about Bowen’s Island Restaurant from the Bravo TV show Southern Charm. I always thought it looked like a really cool place to eat since it was right on the water, but I didn’t even know what it’s name was until I came across a… Continue reading Eat Here: Bowen’s Island Restaurant

Drink This: Red Sangria

I don’t know about you, but for me nothing is better on a hot summer day than a cold glass of sangria. I’ve been making sangria for a few years now, and I always get asked by my friends what I put in it. My secret is to keep it simple and let the fruit and… Continue reading Drink This: Red Sangria
