I’ve got another restaurant experience to tell you about. It was so good that I just have to share! Matt parents took us to the Iberian Pig in Decatur when they were visiting. ALL the tapas were devine, so there’s really no need for me to tell you how delicious, fabulous, unique, mouth-watering each dish was. I’ll just leave you with the description of what I tried, and know that any positive adjective would probably fit:) Drunken goat cheese (soaked…

Happy holiday week! Is anyone else having the heat wave? I’ve just about sweat through everything I own. So, back to the weekend. I arrived back in Atlanta on Thursday with my parents, feeling quite excited about the recent development (thanks for the comments:)) Matt was working late, so I took my parents to a New Orleans oyster house. We sat outside, pretending to be on Bourbon St. The roasted oysters were great! I hate the raw ones because I…
Well, it’s been a very hooot and crazy-fun weekend. A visit with both sets of parents means lots of beer drinking and also shopping for bridesmaids and mother of the groom dresses (which was a success!!) Matt’s parents are still here for the day, so I’ll post a recap when I get a moment this evening.…
Tonight, I ventured out of my neighborhood to have dinner with a college friend. I met her husband for the first time – they are both tax lawyers and they are hilarious together:) I had a small glass of red. I haven’t had Black Box wine in a few years, and it’s good! It was so nice having dinner prepared for me while relaxing on the porch! We had pizza with variations of pineapple, pepperoni, and chicken. Two weeks without…
I’m back in Atlanta after a week at home for wedding planning and a weekend trip to my cousin’s wedding! The wedding was amazing and soo sweet. It took place in an outdoor chapel, so I got front row seating. The ceremony was quite emotional and very beautiful. I think it made Matt and I nervous to say our vows:) My cousin Chris (the bride’s brother), is a talented musician and he performed during the ceremony – you can hear…
Whew. These past few days have been go-go-go. Yesterday, we drove to Winston Salem to celebrate Matt’s little sister’s graduation from Wake Forest. Seeing all the students in adorable sun dresses sure made me want to be a college student and got me excited for the summer season. Congrats to the lovely graduate, Chelsea! Lucky for me, I also got to see one of my college friends graduate from law school. Congrats to Katie too:) After the ceremony, we all…
We’re finally back to normalcy after a fun-filled weekend. We went up to Boston to visit our friends Lauren and Evan and to attend Lauren’s bridal shower. Gosh I miss it there! We spent all day on Friday just walking around, visiting our favorite spots. We started bright and early in Quincy market and walked all the way to our old neighborhood near Northeastern. We stopped for lunch at the MET Bar on Newbury street and enjoyed a wonderful glass…
Just taking a quick breather here to say hello. We drove straight from the airport to my parent’s house because we’re getting up up 5:45 to attend Matt’s sister’s graduation from Wake Forest in the morning! We had an absolutely perfect weekend – the weather was phenomenal and the food fantastic. Being back was bittersweet though because we sure do miss our city and our friends! And the bridal shower was a huge success! Recap coming tomorrow…night!…
Cinco de Mayo was a smashing success! We had a huge downpour right before our party, so all of our guests arrived wet, but after a few margaritas everyone was warm and cozy inside. I made Cristina’s quinoa black bean salad as well as sweet potato black bean enchiladas, and some chocolate dipped strawberries. I also made classic red wine sangria with rum. I was busy drinking my friend Maria’s ‘get naked’ margaritas, but I tried some at the end of…
