I #LuvSoFab!! Video Entry For Sponsorship to #SoFabCon #Cbias
I started my blog over 4 years ago with the intent of creating an online journal. While writing and documenting my adventures in life, I realized a few things in the process. 1. People were reading. 2. I was enjoying the process. 3. I started to find the connection between myself as the blogger and my readers. That connection is something that many have difficulty understand & conveying to their readers. Sometimes a Brand will reach out and ask: What makes me different? How do I stand Continue Reading
Get Your Jet Skies Ready for a Last Minute Ski Vacation #Travel
If I'm not planning a vacation or business trip, I'm counting the days until the trip is actually here. One region I have never visited is the Colorado area. I LOVE the cold weather, but truly have never been in Colorado cold weather (any -0 F) to know first hand. But the idea of it sounds lovely for a vacation. I can see my self skiing on the slopes, resting by a hot tub, and drinking apple cider by the fireplace (let me dream , okay?). I'm wondering if this California/Louisiana girl can Continue Reading

Spring Break Travel: Titanic Museum Attraction
You know I love the Smoky Mountains! I think I have blogged about the East Tennessee area at least a dozen times. In 2012 I was fortunate enough to travel to Pigeon Forge two separate times and visit one of Pigeon Forge's newer attractions: Titanic Museum Attraction. One thing I love about the area is that there are so many reasons to return to the Smoky Mountain region for years to come. I personally I visited the area 10 times & I have yet to grow tired of the area. Titanic Museum & Attraction Continue Reading
Cirque du Soleil Quidam- New Orleans March 13-17th #quidam
I'm a HUGE Cirque du Soleil fan! My family has teased me in the past that if I could run away with the "circus", I would! But Cirque du Soleil is an phenomenal experience to enjoy. I'm beyond excited that Cirque du Soleil Quidam is coming to New Orleans March 13th-17th, 2013 as well as other major cities in the U.S. Quidam is a critically-acclaimed production that is unlike other Cirque du Soleil productions. Instead of taking you to an imaginary realm, Quidam is more of a self examination of Continue Reading
Entertaining With a Purpose: Macy’s Heart of Haiti Collection
I was 11 years old when I made my first Thanksgiving Dinner. Strange for an 11 year old? Not for me. I have always loved to entertain, even as an eleven year old. So it is no shock that home decor and creating new recipes is on my list of hobbies. I am no stranger to Macy's Department Store. Recently you may have noticed my posts surrounding Macy's Culinary Council Cooking Demo Events in the New Orleans area. Every time I get a new email letting me know of an upcoming event, I am instantly on Continue Reading
I’m Attending #SoFabCon! Will You be There?
Years ago my younger sister & I used to joke that we had a "fake" reality television show. The camera film crew was in deep undercover mode in order to keep our show genuine. Naturally we were just fooling around. Who would want an insight into our lives? I wasn't a celebrity. I wasn't a jet setter. I was a nobody...or was I? HA!! Four years ago I started blogging with the sole purpose of having an online journal. My intentions were pure and my idea was merely to have a creative outlet on the Continue Reading

Are you guilty of serving the same finger foods at your next party? I know I am. I love to cook especially for other people, but time is always an issue for me.

This past weekend I was invited to attend a Macy's Culinary Council event in my area featuring Chef Marc Forgione. Most of us love to cook but feel like Continue Reading
