Triangle Char and Bar in Mount Pleasant is a daily hang out for me but this time I brought some friends along Nate Lopes aka DJ Natty Heavy and Meaghan Wallace from Live 5 News. We talked favorite spots in Charleston, misconceptions about their jobs, what shocking thing would be in their memoir, and...
It’s no secret I’m obsessed with Charleston. From the moment I moved here in 2005 I was obsessed. When I left to live in DC for a few years, every opportunity I had to get back for the weekend I would take. Now I’m back in the Lowcountry and don’t plan on leaving ever...
So I’ve been on a cocktail kit lately…don’t get it twisted I still love my wine BUT ever since I went to The Rarebit a few weeks ago and had a Moscow Mule I can’t get my mind off of cocktails. Their house made ginger beer is incredible! Buffie and I were talking about where...
After 24 years of avoiding the ocean, limiting my number of Sunday Fundays on the beach (if it got too hot how was I going to cool off), never learning to surf or paddleboard, even walking on the opposite side of the freezers in the middle of the aisle at the grocery store when...
I moved to Charleston on September 12th but my apartment wasn’t going to be ready until Sept 29th. So it was, “Yo ho, Yo ho, a hotel life for me!” To be completely honest, I was kind of excited about it. I LOVE HOTELS! I thought this would be the best 2 weeks of...
First and Foremost, I would like to say that my friends and family have done such a good job of throwing me AMAZING & exhausting Bachelorette Parties that I don’t plan on having a Birthday Party this year. I am the girl that has at least 3 Birthday Parties and celebrates the entire month of...
This makes my life. 1. I am quoted in the Charleston, SC Newspaper-The Post & Courier. 2. I am quoted in the Post & Courier discussing the AWESOMENESS that is SUNDAY FUNDAY IN CHARLESTON, SOUTH CAROLINA! “There is no city (in the four cities I’ve lived in and the many I have visited) that...
(I would like to think that) Everyone has a happy place. The place that no matter what is going on in your life, in the world, in your day, you go to and all your worries disappear. You find a sense of calm. You don’t think about the past or the future…only the present....
I don’t normally like watching other people make out but I was really excited about the Kate and William Wedding Kiss…and then all I got was this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QYmPXLmczfQ LAME! Instead of whining about it I decided to do something about it….YOU’RE WELCOME. Meet the Make Out Bandit ...
7 years ago, on the Monday after Easter, I made one of the biggest decisions of my life. I was 20 years old and at a fork in the road. The comfortable route would’ve kept me in Bakersfield, made me go back to college, & probably would’ve ended up with me being married with...
Carrie Underwood has been the motivation and inspiration for many aspiring singers, but for Alysa (my roomie) and I, she has been the inspiration to PUT DOWN THE FRENCH FRIES, ICE CREAM, & SODA! Obviously (for the past few...well for a while) we have not had our eye on the prize. However when we found...
