Merry Christmas from Louisiana!

AMERICAAAAAAA! Man, clearly you have to leave this country to really appreciate. I flew literally halfway across the world just to make it back to my grandparent’s house for Christmas in a tiny town in Louisiana and I could not be happier!

Food Friday: Eating my way through North Carolina

What you are about to see is embarrassing.  Only for the simple fact that I’m about to disclose to you the unbelievable…yet necessary (haha, lies) amount of food I’ve eaten in the past five days.

Summer Scheming: Music Festivals

Gosh, I tell myself I’m going to start blogging regularly then disappear for five days, sorry guys! I hope you had a great President’s Day weekend! Did you go anywhere? I spent most of the weekend working and I’m nowhere near where I need to be, but I wanted...

My Favorite Cities for Romance

Paris? Nope. Florence? Oh, please. Although I can be a tad bit cynical about romantic travel, the fact is there are some cities in America that upon first visit you can’t help but imagine yourself walking hand in hand with the one you love.  As Valentine’s Day is approaching and is on a...

I miss the South.  There, I said it.  I never, ever thought I would say it but lately I’ve been finding myself fantasizing about packing up about 40% of my stuff, selling the rest and heading south of the Mason-Dixon line.  Way south.  As most of you know I grew...

Travel Tuesday: Southern Love

I just happened to be flipping through one of my favorite magazines and I decided I’d like to pay homage to it on this Travel Tuesday.  I’m always shocked by the number of people who are unfamiliar with Garden & Gun because I think it is the only publication...
