Wine Flights and Time Capsules…

Anytime a weekend includes time with friends, family, good food and some spontaneous adventures (and getting some rest, too, of course!), I consider it a success.

Summertime Sweets: Piña Colada Dip

Now that we’re on the other side of an absolutely insane heatwave and a wild weekend celebrating 250 years of independence, I’m officially back to work as of this morning and doing my best to ease into a daily routine that doesn’t just consist of eating half my body weight in hot dogs, BBQ, steamed […]

My Summer Makeup Routine!

There’s nothing quite having a Friday off in the Summertime, and there’s nothing quite like having a Friday off right before the 4th of July weekend here in New England! While the next couple of days are going to be filled with fireworks, s’mores and applying plenty of sunscreen while I’m out and about, I […]
