Friendsgiving is one of my all time favorite holidays. Don't get me wrong, Thanksgiving is up there too - I love my mom's cooking.... I could just do without the inevitable family drama for dessert. *sigh* When I first moved to Atlanta, I had never even heard of Friendsgiving. Leave it to my blogger bestie Eating with Erica to show me how it's done. Her Friendsgiving is one of the most anticipated events of the year and is always completely unforgettable. If you're lucky enough to be a part ...

The Best of Pumpkin Spice 2017
I've gotta be honest, I've never been a big fan of pumpkin spice. Frankly, I never understood, and still don't fully understand, society's obsession with it. Call me close minded, but in my eyes - pumpkins are meant for carving... not for eating, smearing on your skin, or putting in your coffee. Very unpopular opinion, I know. Since I'm 25 now and exponentially more mature than I have been in the past, I've decided to be more open this year and try a few pumpkin concoctions ...
The Easiest Low Carb Breakfast Bites, Ever
Anyone else addicted to watching those mini how-to cooking videos on Facebook? They've been around for years and despite feeling incredibly inspired every time I watch them, I've never actually gotten off my ass to try a recipe myself... and I have a weird feeling I'm not the only one. Coincidentally, I am on a mission to SAVE MO MONEY before 2018 (aka I've been eating out a lot less) so I'm taking this opportunity to experiment with some of my fav saved foodie vids to answer your (ok, my) ...
My Ride on the Blue Apron Bandwagon
So, I kind of skipped the meal delivery service bandwagon when everyone else hopped on last year.... Call me a control freak, but I like going up and down every aisle of the grocery store with my list in hand. It's almost, dare I say, therapeutic? (I'm aging myself here.) Anyway, now everyone is addicted to this stuff. I honest-to-God can't log onto Instagram without seeing an almost-too-perfect looking meal with a lifesaving meal delivery service neatly tagged in the corner... I'm not sure ...
Barcelona: Bubbles + Brunch
Everyone loves brunch. Right? Usually I wouldn't just generalize everyone... but what's not to love? Recapping the dirty deets from the night before while nursing your hangover with runny yolks and bottomless bubbles? Call me a millennial, but it just doesn't get much better than that. One of my favorite places to eat in the entire city is Barcelona Inman Park, so when I was in the area for a wine tasting at Vintoeca and learned they served brunch, I pretty much ran (in heels) across ...
#BartacoSecret: Ancho Chile & Coffee Braised Short Rib Taco
Nothing says, "Hellooooo, weekend!" quite like an ice cold margarita (or three) at Bartaco. My office closed at 2 PM last Friday (score) so as soon as I got off, I hopped in the car and headed straight over to the Bartaco on Roswell Road to meet up with my friends, Alec and Erica,for an afternoon of tacos and tequila. We snagged a piece of spot by the fireplace and immediately ordered a large guac and tuna poke. I'm not a huge fan of raw fish, so I left that to Alec and Erica while I ate ...
