Bull City is Not BS
Last night via an exceptional Hotwire find on a dreadfully rainy Monday night, I was able to test drive the new 21c Museum hotel in Durham. Architectural Digest called it one of the best new hotels in the world this year. And let me just say, holy shit; this place is great. This was a true…
Cupid in the Kitchen
Not usually one to care too much about Valentine’s Day, I’m happy to say that I just had the cutest one ever…Despite being sick with a super gross cold that, because it’s Valentine’s Day, I shared with the Chap. You’re welcome! A couple days prior, I received the most insane arrangement from the bestie. OMG….
Will You Be My Valentine?
So you’ve navigated through birthdays, the holidays, an anniversary, and now… Valentine’s Day. Does anyone REALLY like Valentine’s Day?

How to Un-Ice a Cake – The Mounds Bar Cake Recipe
My friend is having a champagne and chocolate party tonight where everyone is supposed to bring the two name ingredients to share. Right up my alley! And I had an excuse to bake – something I’m not doing lately since the Chap and I are on a clean eating kick. I figured I’d make my…
Put this on Your Weekend To-Do List
One of my most adorable sorority sisters has had the gorgeous blog (and now her career), Because I’m Addicted for years. This week she shares the harrowing experience that she and her husband of less than a year just endured. If you even spend two minutes poking around her site, I’m sure you’ll be just…
Fiesta, Fiesta
