  Hi Dolls, I'm excited that my favorite season is here! I love the warmer weather and outdoor events. I visited  Spring Field Manor in Thurmont, Maryland, last weekend to visit the Lavender Fields. The annual Maryland Lavender Festival was held June 13-14th, it was a sold out event. I wasn't able to attend, but I got a ticket to visit the Lavender Fields. It was such a peaceful experience. I've lived in Maryland for over half of my life and visiting the fields felt like I was transported to another state. The land and views were so captivating. It was nice to spend the day surrounded by lavender blooms, sunshine, and the simple reminder that beauty can be found in the quiet moments.  I felt like this was one of the best resets. It allowed me to step away from the routine, take the scenic route, and allow myself to be fully present. It left me feeling refreshed and inspired. This visit will definitely be a core summer memory for me. Scroll for pictures, captions, and the...

  Hi Dolls,  I have been a Golden Girls fan since I was a kid, I watched the show with my mom when I was younger, and I will happily binge watch episodes of it on Hulu and TV Land like I haven't seen them before. I love just about anything Golden Girls related. One of my favorite Adult coloring books is my beloved Golden Girls book. 😊 I traveled to Atlanta early this month. While visiting, one of my highlights was visiting The Golden Girls Kitchen . I heard about the pop-up experience in other states, so I was happy to see it make its way to Atlanta (which is a second home for me).  It was such a cute experience.   While there, I toured the living room, kitchen, and even Blanche’s bedroom. The kitchen serves dishes inspired by the show, alongside cocktails named after the Girls. I ended the experience with a slice of cheesecake   and a stop in the gift shop. If you’re a Golden Girls fan, this is definitely a must-visit.  The Deets: 225 Rogers Str...

Hi Dolls,  I’ve been enjoying myself in these DC streets! DC has had an amazing lineup of festivals, and I’ve enjoyed all of them. Wine and good company is always a vibe for me. I went to DC Wine Fest  DC Wine Fest  a few weeks ago. I sampled new wines, tried gin and bourbon for the first time, and purchased a few bottles to take home. To see a brief glimpse of the experience, see the video below.  I love traveling and experiencing new places, but (to me) it’s nothing like experiencing what your own city has to offer.  #funthingstodoindc The Deets:⁣ ⁣ 📍The Wine Fest was held at Union Market. 1309 5th Street NE Washington, DC 20002.⁣ ⁣ 🎟️ Tickets ranged from $35-$55, it depends on what session you pick. ⁣ ⁣ 🥂Your ticket includes a complimentary wine glass and wine samplings. ⁣ ⁣ ⚡️ The Fall edition DC Wine Fest will be held on 10/19/2024.
