Welcome to the cozy corner of the internet where I document my literary adventures and my passions for food, wine, and travel.
Hope to see you here often!
All in Food & Wine
One good thing that came from last year’s quarantine was that I had time to rediscover my passion for cooking. My rediscovered culinary skills plus hours, days, and months of isolation gave birth to my genuine desire to entertain which lead me to host a dinner party in celebration of my new apartment and my Mom’s birthday. Here’s how I pulled it all together!
During quarantine, I discovered and joined the Black Girls Wine Society and subscribed to BrightCellars Wine Club. Between these two organizations and my own personal passion, I’ve tried so many new wines and varietals this year! Here’s a list of my five favorites.
Though I like the Candy Shack concept, a colorful adult candy store serving sweets and alcohol, the sugary-sweet ingredients in their daiquiris don’t always blend well with the alcohol. Such was the case with the Strawberry Shortcake.
Daiquiris 2 Go is just a really cool place. The service is great, the drinks are good, the tacos are delicious. This is definitely a place to sit down and have a drink, maybe even play a game with some friends
The neon sign says Daiquiris To Go; the door says New Orleans D&W. I know them as Daiquiris To Go at 3602 Old Spanish Trail, the first drive-thru daiquiri I ever visited. While this establishment may not be a good place to sit and drink with friends, there are two things that make it worth a visit.
I like Daiquiri Explosion because their menu is expansive, the people who work there are cool and it’s a nice place to sit and have a drink when I can or to swing by the drive-thru if I'm in a hurry.
