Kentucky is most famous for two things: horses and bourbon. The Kentucky Derby is in a little over a week, and I wanted to share a really fun recipe that combines these two things: Horse Cupcakes with Bourbon Icing. It’s the perfect (and cutest) treat to take to Derby parties, or to just enjoy by yourself. I wouldn’t suggest taking these to work parties, unless alcohol is acceptable at your workplace (it isn’t at mine). I’ve teamed up with other local bloggers to share Derby inspired posts, from outfits to recipes and…
*This post is sponsored by The Simple Greek. I was given the meals for free in exchange for my review, but was not compensated in any other way. A couple of weeks ago, The Simple Greek saw my 30 Lexington Restaurants before 30 post and invited me out to sample some of their menu items (their words, remember this). I love Greek food, and I’d seen some friends (mostly, Kelsey from Kabkitchen) post about The Simple Greek once it opened, and I couldn’t wait to get my hands on it. The menu starts with two options…
I was born in Lexington, and raised in Georgetown. I’ve lived there my entire life, minus my four years in Morehead for college.

Some parties have food provided, but some ask that party attendees bring a dish. Seasoned oyster crackers are some of my favorite snacks, and they’re always a big hit at gatherings. They’re also great…
I was sent this coffee by Shuffle Bean in exchange for a review. All opinions are my own. Fall is so close I can feel it. Pumpkin flavors are officially out in stores and coffee shops nationwide, and that makes me a very happy girl. Fall is my favorite, and I am very basic when it comes to my love of pumpkin. Pumpkin coffees can get expensive. It comes in K-cups, ground coffee, creamer, and many different coffee shop concoctions. I’ve teamed up with Shuffle Bean Coffee to bring you a recipe for a creamer you can…
Hey y’all! If you follow me on Instagram (and if you don’t, you can here) you may have seen my posts about a blogger brunch I attended a couple of weekends ago at The Barn at Springhouse. Y’ALL. It was so gorgeous and perfect and Pinterest-worthy. The bloggers that joined up for the brunch are all sharing some inspiration that they contributed to the brunch today. I’m going to be sharing the recipe for the lemonade I created, along with some photos from the brunch. Check out the bottom of…
