Chaddsford Winery Tour
As of recent, I’ve had a desire to “up” my wine/entertaining skills. Perhaps it’s the wine class I recently took with my family. Perhaps it’s also the fact that I’m watching Anthony Bourdain: Parts Unknown while writing this post. So it’s so fortuitous that this past week I was invited to a tour of the…

Summer in Seattle
Earlier this month, my pals Rebecca, Emily and I took off to the Pacific Northwest to visit our friend Grace who moved to Seattle this past year. It was my first time being in the PNW, and after this visit I would certainly go back in a heart beat. I loved how Seattle is such…

This morning, some pals and I checked out the Punk Rock Flea Market presented by Captains Village at the 23rd Street Armory! The Punk Rock Flea Market is an amazing place to shop for vintage clothing, records, art, and much more, and it’s also a great way to support local artists. This event takes place twice…

Dream Decor at The Philadelphia Antiques and Art Show
Believe it or not, I loved watching the Antiques Roadshow on PBS growing up (I think it was on before Zoom??). There was something about seeing and learning about beautiful treasures and trinkets that fascinated me (my parents can attest to this). So it’s safe to say that I throughly enjoyed the event I attended last…
