Maine-Ing About: Farm To Table Plates

Friday, September 6, 2013

Although the views were stunning, the lobsters were incredibly fresh, and the hikes were out of this world, my ultimate favorite part about visiting the coast of Maine was diving into their farm to table restaurants at night. The two I’m obsessed with? That would be Primo and Fore Street. Both restaurants are maintained by [...]

So how could we go to Maine and not have lobster…and tons of it? But contrary to what one would think, the best lobster joints we found were actually not luxurious where staff feed us lobster-ous cuisines. The three most delicious lobsters and lobster rolls we inhaled over the weekend were those we had en [...]

Now don’t get me wrong, my two backups {I’ve blogged about them too – Vita Liberata + L’Oreal’s Sublime Bronze} are thebomb.com as well, but Tantowel has [...]

If you’ve been following B+H for the past couple of years, it’s no secret that my favorite glosses to place on my Southern puckers are indeed, plumpers. Oh yes! And although I’ve tested all the brands out on the market {remember “Pucker Up, Buttercup“? Ouch!}, I’ve always been {and forever will be} loyal to DuWop’s [...]

Since I’m usually the head player in the kitchen, I was totally excited when a friend in a group uptown we like to call the “UES tribe” offered to make the whole crew homemade pasta on Monday night. Hola! But obviously I wasn’t just going to sit around and not enjoy the true gems being [...]

Queen Of Spades This Fall

Prancing down 5th during my lunch break {Jamba Juice style, hola}, I saw Kate Spade’s store shining bright like a diamond on the corner. And although it’s not quite time to be flaunting the chunky sweaters + furry coats, I decided to walk on in and see what they had on display for the fall [...]
