Texas is good at keeping her secrets. From the mysteries that lie in the depths of Jacob’s Well in Wimberley to the extraterrestrial lights in Marfa. The unique and unusual, captivating and quaint, are all just a roadtrip away. I love living here. I love not knowing what’s waiting for me down that back country […]
Every year when summer rolls around, I want to do as they say – all the things! Time slows down, the days are longer, and I’m feeling like anything is possible. Summer is a little like having an endless string of Fridays (my favorite day of the week). My 2019 summer bucket list is something […]
One question we frequently get when it comes to travel is, “How do you decide where to travel to next?” (i.e. how to avoid travel FOMO) This is usually followed up with: Do you spin a globe and randomly land somewhere? — No, more on that below. Do you ever go back to the same […]
As someone who travels to Europe a couple times a year, I don’t ever make time for spa treatments and I certainly wasn’t educated about non-invasive European techniques. Whenever I’ve heard the words med spa, I have always thought of needles, Botox®️, or other methods of literally carving out the skin, body, or face you […]
Was that a quick month or what? I love the holidays but always feel like they’re over as soon as they begin. I really want to try and stretch out the holiday this year and slow down, if at all possible. You know those cliché things like sipping hot cocoa by the fire and wrapping […]
Finding your blogging tribe is probably one of the toughest things to do. It’s not enough to just put your content out there and expect hoards of followers to read every word immediately. Part of what makes blogging so rewarding is being able to connect with other bloggers who share similar passions and what it […]
Hi everyone! I hope that Thursday is going very well for you and you’re looking ahead at a fun weekend. Today’s post is a little short, but one that I wanted to share with you. A couple of weeks ago I was invited by Ashley from Reservoir De Rosé to “Care in Color” at the […]
There’s a new Italian kid on the block and he’ll give your Nonna a run for her money. Located in the old Fire Station No. 7 building in San Antonio’s Southtown, Battalion serves fresh Italian favorites in a space more reminiscent of a swanky club than grandma’s kitchen. Andrew Goodman (of Feast and Rebelle) excelled […]
Some believe that the American steakhouse is an archaic restaurant model from a bygone era. A boys’ club. A high dollar gathering place exclusive to celebrating business deals with overpriced bourbon and overcooked steak. Anyone can name five or six, maybe even ten, steakhouses, none of which is any more remarkable than the next. My […]
What defines an exceptional dining experience? Our weekend visit to Peggy’s On The Green in Boerne, Texas provided just that definition. It was a rainy day and we had spent most of it fighting the retail crowds and running errands. Nothing sounded better than an early dinner of comfort food and a great cocktail. Peggy’s accommodated […]
Before I get into this post, I want to first say thank you to everyone who has read, favorited, liked, and shared my blog. This is still a fun new endeavor for me, and I just so appreciate all the positive feedback! I mentioned in this post that I would be sharing a little about […]
Is it just me, or is this week flying by? I can’t believe tomorrow is already Friday and it’ll be a week since we tried Signature, a new restaurant in San Antonio. We had a little Valentine’s celebration at home but also made reservations with some friends for a fun night out. I already know that […]
Despite a few clouds and the threat of a little rain, attending Tacos and Talk at Culinaria, San Antonio was a fun way for two foodies to spend a Saturday. This was our first time and we will definitely be back. The gorgeous La Cantera Resort & Spa was the perfect location to experience freshly prepared […]
