Sprinkles Cupcakes

If you haven't noticed, I am crazy about a good cupcake.  They're cute and so delicious.  You can serve them at a baby shower, birthday party, or an elegant event.  When I was in Los Angeles, I told my husband that I had to try a good cupcake...

Southern Coney Hilton Head Island

We were out searching for a good breakfast this morning, and we pulled into Southern Coney. The sign above the entrance states, "Best pancakes ever!" They were not lying! You see the pattern...I'm a sucker for a good breakfast! This is a great spot to get a hearty...

A Romantic Getaway

For our anniversary, my husband planned a romantic getaway to the Ritz-Carlton at Dove Mountain and we had a blast!  Anyone who knows me knows that I love the Ritz-Carlton.  They offer the best service, and although I know there are other hotels that have...

Gender Reveal Party

This will be my only post this week.  I need a break after all of the suspense from this weekend!  I literally felt like I had run a marathon. Our Gender Reveal Party was so much fun!  We were surrounded by over 30 friends and family who attended the...

Vero Amore at Dove Mountain

I was craving pizza today, and to my surprise, I read about this restaurant in Tucson Living Magazine literally within an hour after my cravings began.  It is one of the top rated restaurants according to Tucson Living, so I wanted to see what all of the hype was...

Joey Aventura Miami

Today, I had a quiet, fun-filled lunch with a group of wonderful women while in Miami. We were told Joey Aventura was a hot spot among the locals, so we gave it a try. Upon entering the restaurant, you pass a wall of wine, and the servers greet you with a glass of...

Commerce Kitchen

I love lunch dates, and this lunch date was special because I spent it with a sweet lady from the Mississippi Delta. She grew up about 45 miles from where I was born and raised.  She graduated from Alabama A & M University and went on to medical school....

TOUS les JOURS Cafe

If you read my previous post on Purveyor, you'll notice we did not get dessert at Purveyor because I had been wanting to try this bakery at Mid-City, and I'm so glad I did. After our dinner, we went to Mid-City to get some macarons and Cloud Cake. This is the cutest...

Lo-Lo’s Chicken and Waffles

My husband and I took a fun road trip to Scottsdale to eat at Lo-Lo's Chicken & Waffles.  We met about 20 friends at the restaurant and just enjoyed each other's company.   I never pass up an opportunity to eat good food and hang out with a great...
