Favorite Things Friday: Pie Edition

There are a couple things that spell SUMMER…

Backyard BBQs
Beach days that turn into bonfire nights
Outdoor markets
The search for pie recipes to bring to EVERY summer party I attend (whether you like it or not, its happening)
My solution- A pie chart! (hehe. I crack myself up). Here are my top picks for the season:

Summer Menu: Grilled to Perfection

Burgers say summer to me and this Portobello Peach Burger has completely stolen my heart! I would never think to pair peach and mushroom, but this amazing burger combination has inspired me to conjure an entire menu based on it fruity and savory flavors! Personally, I would drop the idea of fries with this meal and substitute them with these amazing Smoked Paprika Potatoes, and then for a light dessert I’d serve Raspberry and Mango Sorbet topped with berries and creme. Sounds good right?!

Palm Springs Bachelorette Party

Bachelorete Party Weekend at Avalon Palm Springs Hotel

When my bestie asked me to be her Matron of Honor, I was thrilled to say the least. Instantly I screamed with joy, and about 10 seconds later, I started planning the Bachelorette Party. I was determined to make this a memorable fling before the ring and here’s a peek as to how it all unfolded.

I’d love to say our fun weekend magically came together with the snap of my fingers, but it didn’t. It took months of prep and careful consideration about what I thought the Bride wanted. So here’s a handful of things I needed in order to create the ultimate Bachelorette Party.

Coast Highway Oceanside, CA – The Food Crawl

COAST HIGHWAY FOOD CRAWL Oceanside CA

If you’ve visited Oceanside, California 10 (heck even 5) years ago, you haven’t been to Oceanside, California. The culture, local attractions, and most of all, the food have dramatically changed in the last several years. So much so, that these little craft restaurants are taking home some of the most prestigious titles for food and (my husband’s favorite) craft beer. So logically, it’s been a longtime goal of ours to turn Coast Highway into one our favorite past times, The Ultimate Food Crawl.

Speaking to this, my crew and I have been busy planning a fun Palm Springs inspired photo shoot and we’ve taken to Instagram to find incredible inspiration!

Many states are known for their cooking. I’ll admit that California Cuisine is quite delicious, and you really cant beat New York Style Pizza (it’s something about the water) but nothing can hold a candle to Southern Cooking. Paula Dean trumps Rachel Ray for me any day of the week. So since I think of… Read More
