This week flew by especially quickly (probably because I spent half of it in a food coma in Austin). It was so nice getting some much-needed time with my uncle in the evenings, and I loved spending the days holed up writing at the Hotel Saint Cecilia, one of my favorite places in the world to stay. I came back to a clean house, my three sweet pups, a home-cooked meal and my loving husband, reminding me there is no better place in the world than home...View Article
I'm in the midst of an epic love affair with the Hotel Saint Cecilia. Tony and I recently stayed there on our trip to Austin, became obsessed and now I live there in my dreams. They didn't pay me to write this, but they did give Tony and me the dopest room upgrade of all time to a three bedroom suite, complete with a private entrance, two porches and an outdoor shower. Naturally, a once in a lifetime gift like that calls for a photo shoot! (Pretty much anything in life calls for a photo shoot, in my book. If it's not on Instagram, did it ever really even happen??)View Article
Tony and I ate our weight in breakfast tacos, barbecue and ice cream this weekend, and it was worth every additional pound gained. (Don’t know how many pounds, specifically. Scared to step on a scale. Having trouble zipping my jeans though, so I know it’s serious.) I wrote about our adventures befriending alpacas and luxuriating in a tub tub during a rainstorm yesterday, but there was simply too much to say about all the glorious food we shoveled into our faces. It deserved a blog of its own. So, if you’re heading to South by Southwest this weekend or to Austin anytime ever, here is our guide to our new favorite city. (Special thanks are owed to Tony’s bosses at School of Rock, who are native Texans, food aficionados and music experts. Thanks for the hot tips, Jim and Steve! I blame you for my weight gain and current state of pure happiness.)View Article
Tony and I are spending a long weekend in Austin, and I am hereby declaring it my favorite city in the universe. Goodbye forever, Los Angeles! (Or, at least until tonight). I've got a few breakfast tacos in my lap that I'm eating in bed while I write and I've got to get out of bed and get ready to go eat somewhere else soon, so more on why Austin is my new favorite city later this week... But for now, here are a few pictures my favorite person Tony took of me in my favorite dress at my new favorite hotel, the Hotel Saint Cecilia. I never want to leave!View Article
