Fire in the City: Charlotte

August 27, 2014 by Julie 63 Comments

Fire in the City

Last night was so much fun! It was packed with local food, fun people and great energy! A few weeks ago I was invited to attend Fire in the City as a guest judge. Fire in the City is a competition dining series that takes place all over North Carolina. It kicked off in Charlotte…

Happy To Be Home

Beer and Salad

After a week in California, it feels so good to be home. I am still feeling a little sluggish today but hopefully by tomorrow I’ll feel adjusted to the time change and a bit more like myself. The Super Shuttle picked me up at my hotel at 3:05 a.m. yesterday so by the time I…

Tropical Salad with Citrus Vinaigrette

Summer is the perfect time to enjoy light, refreshing salads that are easy to prepare and full of flavor.

Date Night

Charlotte Date Night: Copper + Amelie’s French Bakery

July 21, 2014 by Julie 79 Comments

Uptown Charlotte

On Saturday night, Ryan and I headed out for a date night in Charlotte! I would say we drove to downtown Charlotte for our date night, but no one calls the city “downtown.” The city is referred to as “Uptown” which seemed kind of strange to me and Ryan at first, but we’re slowly learning…

Those Summer Nights

Mermaid Hair Flip

…cue Sandy and Danny! (<— Watching that video just made me way too happy.) Last night was one of those quintessential summer nights. A simple dinner, an evening swim in the lake (that included my best attempt at the mermaid hair flip) and his and her milkshakes! Dinner Dinner was inspired by my friend Cara….
