Looking forward to the Oscars this weekend? Why not enhance the viewing experience and host a dinner party? Hola. Better yet, have your guests bring over a different dish related to their favorite nominees!

And honestly, I can’t believe I am just now posting about my

At the end of the day, there’s nothing better to satisfy any craving than a good ‘ole slice of caramel cake. Hola! But contrary to what one may believe, many people outside of the south have either never heard had a piece of an actual piece of Southern caramel cake or even heard it. Which

One of my favorite batches to brew up on any day is beer bread. No question! It’s incredibly easy and not to mention simple with just using actual beer in the process.

Since this week is all about Southern holiday gift ideas, there is no way I would even think about leaving off a true Nashville favorite: Loveless Cafe. If you’ve ever done research on Nashville before a trip down there, visited Music City in the past, or just asked friends who knew a bit about the

Out of all the things I’m thankful for, which I could honestly write a month of posts about, I’m so blessed and lucky to have such a close group of friends in this whirlwind of a city. Between friends I’ve known since I was two years old to new friends I met just a few

Some brides splurge on their dress. Some brides splurge on their venue. Others, splurge on their cake! And I’m all over that sugary detail. Hola.

‘Twas the day before all the dead rise, and decorated pumpkins galore are all finished + settled throughout my casa! Not a skeleton was moving on the walls… not even my stuffed black cat. Alright…my little poem isn’t as creative as I had imagined…sorry y’all – nixed! Anyways, before the dead do rise tomorrow it’s

En route back to the city from Outhouse Orchards, which was filled with all things apple galore, we were all craving one bakery sweet: an apple pie. And although we could have easily popped into a store + picked up one already baked, we decided to pull out our inner domestic divas and snag up
