cabo san lucas

In December, RH and I got to spend a week at the lovely Pueblo Bonito Sunset Beach in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. Sunset Beach and its sister resort, the Pacifica, were absolutely stunning! We had a wonderful time relaxing at the pool and taking in the sights of the Los Cabos area. Would I return...

prelude to staplehouse

RH and I recently had the pleasure of attending our second prelude to Staplehouse dinner with the über-talented, über-nice Ryan and Jen Hidinger. Head over to their blog for the full rundown on these beautiful and delicious dishes. If you haven’t had the delight of attending one of their underground dinners, I highly recommend signing...

cocktails in the garden

RH and I recently went to Cocktails in the Garden at the Atlanta Botanical Garden. We’ve been members of the Garden for a couple of years, and we’ve enjoyed Cocktails in the Garden many times. It’s a wonderful way to wind down after work. And the Edible Garden is one of my favorite places in...

steven satterfield of miller union was my private chef

Okay, so it was just for one meal. But it was, quite possibly, the meal of the century. A few months ago, RH and I went to a silent auction at the Atlanta Contemporary Art Center. We thought we’d enjoy a few hors d’oeuvres and cocktails, and maybe we’d leave with theatre tickets or some...

away from it all

RH and I recently took a few days to spend time in the North Georgia mountains. It was very, very relaxing. We rented a great place that I’ll call a “cabin-house” because—while it had the stylings of what I would call a cabin—it was really big and nice, like a super-comfy, traditional house. It was...
