One part opportunity, one part spontaneity, whip vigorously
A few weekends ago I attended one of my good friends wedding in Savannah, Georgia. I didn’t get a ton of time to explore the city because I got in on a Friday afternoon and left on the following Sunday morning but from what I saw I loved. It reminded me a lot of Charleston…
Over presidents day weekend Kara, a few girlfriends, and I went down to Miami for a weekend on my dads boat. I have always been one to hang out with my dad and my friends so I didn’t realize how much I was asking of him till we got down there. In my mind it…
Tonight we ate as Irish as we could; Irish onion soup and corned beef and cabbage. It was fabulous! This past Saturday I drank as Irish as I could in Chicago; Guinness, Baileys, and Jameson. I would hope the Irish are proud. Irish onion soup recipe
Below is a snapshot into the first day of 27 for me; I think it is going to be a good year. Looking for an amazing winter cake recipe? My sister Kara made me this Blood Orange, Almond and Ricotta Cake and it was awesome!

This past August we made the long journey, seven hours, from Denver to Telluride; impressively enough we made it starting at 5:30 pm and arriving at 2 am, thanks to John’s mad driving skills. We set up camp in the dark and awoke to a beautiful area. We were camping at Alta Lakes and it was an incredible…
Oktoberfest is in full swing right now! It is currently day 14 of Oktoberfest in Munich and there are two days left. In Colorado there have been multiple celebrations from Denver’s Oktoberfest on Larimer that was the last two weekends in September, South Pearl Street’s Oktoberfest, to ones in the mountains like Breckenridge’s Oktoberfest; which is…
Another one of my college roommates had a bachelorette party! And though I was not able to make it I was able to be there in spirit or in cookie. My friend Melissa is an amazing singer so I knew besides my inappropriate cookies I would go with musical notes for her! I themed them…
