I'm craving some serious comfort food after the Hu

I'm craving some serious comfort food after the Hurricane and seeing all the devastation so much of Florida is still experiencing. My heart goes out to everyone who was hit hard by the storm ❤️

If you want some comfort food and a little distraction from the fear, sadness, and frustration, these Almond Butter Cookie Bars are on the blog right now. They have a dense and chewy almond butter cookie base with a creamy almond butter topping, and a rich fudge finish. I need one ... or five ... right now.

It's fall y'all, so it's time for all the comforting autumnal vibes of foods like these blondies made with olive oil, studded with toasted hazelnuts, and swirled with homemade salted caramel. I don't know about you, but I'm ready for a batch or five of these 😋 If you agree, the recipe is on my blog right now!

Wearing white after Labor Day? Totally okay in my book! I'm always up for a crisp white sweater, or even better, a white party dress - with sequins, of course! All the details for this outfit are on the blog as always!

I used to dream about going to the Emmys 🌟 I us

I used to dream about going to the Emmys 🌟 I used to dream about a lot of things, have all kinds of goals. Be a bestselling author, win an Emmy or Oscar or both, move to California (well I moved to Florida, so I have come close enough 🌴) But somewhere in the last two years I kind of stopped dreaming. I stopped setting goals. I stopped thinking about what I want from the future.

The good part of that is I'm living so much more in the moment and it has brought me a lot of happiness. The bad thing is my future looks like a blank space ... or maybe more like a black hole 🕳

But as I do more things that old, ambitious version of myself loved, and meet more people, and the world around me returns to normal, maybe I can find that dreamer again. Maybe I need to ✨️

Watching the Emmys last night made me want to be there again. Want to wear a stunning dress, especially the one @hannah_waddingham wore 💗 Want to give an inspirational speech like @michaelkeatondouglas and @thesherylleeralph. In fact those two speeches made me remember that it's okay to be different, to not fit in, to be me, to be an artist.

At this moment I still don't know what the future holds or even what I want it to hold, but I'm ready to dream again and wear my almost Emmy worthy dress again. The details for this outfit are on the blog ✨️ 💙

Apparently it's officially meteorological fall even though it most definitely does not feel like it here in Florida. But I'll take any excuse for a weekend baking project so this Whole Pear and Olive Oil Cake is going to be in my oven this weekend and it should definitely be in yours too. And then maybe it will cool off outside too 🤔
The recipe is on the blog, as always

It was such a blast experiencing a masterclass and pop up bar from @cafelatrovamiami over the weekend @jwmorlando 🍹 They were recently named the sixth best bar in North America and it's easy to see why. The flavorful cocktails (does it get more classic than a daquiri? 🍸) and incredible food (I mean look at that flatbread 😋 and those empanadas 🤩) made for a memorable evening. Too bad it was only for one night!!! You can read all about it on Tasty Chomps right now!
