This last summer really really flew by! It was my first summer being back in New York after having spent the last few years living in California so I was really excited to be able to connect with old friends. It felt like there was something going on every weekend! Towards the end of the summer, one of my favorite trips was when Peter and I went to Newport Rhode Island to celebrate my 30th…

The Hospitality Industry Needs Our Support!
There really is no other way to put it – we are living in a very interesting and trying time. I’ve been fortunate enough to be able to keep my job throughout this time and just transition to working from home. During work today, in one of our leader’s presentations they had a quote that said, “We are all in the same storm but we are not all in the same boat”.
After talking to friends, watching…

Playa Mesa Brunch in Costa Mesa, California
You know how they say you don’t realize what you have until you start missing it? I feel like I’ve experienced that quite frequently with all my moving around lately. When I was living in NYC I was yearning for open air and outdoor adventures but when I left I missed the freedom NYC gave me and the ability to travel the city at any hour and have a list of things I could still do regardless of how…

Leek and Mushroom Frittata with a Spoonful of Maille (Recipe)
When it comes to brunch are you more of a sweet or savory person? I used to have an intensely sweet tooth but lately I’ve been gravitating towards savory dishes. Especially around springtime because of all the fresh, crisp veggies that pop up at farmer’s markets.
I’m pretty close to both the Brentwood farmers market and the Santa Monica farmers market so whenever I can sneak out for an hour…

Los Angeles: Lunch at The Henry
Los Angeles: Lunch at The Henry
It is undeniable that having good weather year round in Los Angeles is great mainly because dining al fresco extends way beyond the summer months. A few weekends back, when there was an extra day off, I took the time to wander around the surrounding neighborhoods and had the chance to pop into the Henry.
I loved how large the space was at the Henry. I do like when places are intimate and cozy…

Peter Yealand’s Sauvignon Blanc + A Lemon Cake = The Perfect Evening
These days, I’ve learned to appreciate “girls night IN” more than “girls night OUT”. After a long work week or hectic day, there’s nothing better than having a couple of your closest friends over to enjoy a chilled bottle of wine and some sweet treats.
And the other day I did just that! I’m really loving on this eco-focused wine brand I came across called Peter Yealands. My favorite variety…

Spaghetti and Shrimp in a Creamy Tomato Sauce
There’s nothing I love more than spending a cozy night in with an extra large bowl of comforting spaghetti! Whenever I eat spaghetti it really does bring me back to childhood. It was the first dish I learned to make and I’ll never forget it.
Last night, I decided to put on a pot of gluten free Tresomega spaghetti and toss it in a creamy tomato sauce with shrimp! I really like using Tresomegaf…
