This weekend I had the privilege of attending a lovely private event hosted by Terrain. Held in their cozy event lodge, the atmosphere was sophisticated yet relaxed, and the variety of guests made for entertaining conversation. The highlight of the evening was the harvest plated, five course dinner masterly crafted by Executive Chef Keith Rudolf. I had my first taste of (beer braised) bison, which I thoroughly enjoyed, along with every delectable bite on the menu. I believe I heard a collective gasp when the cranberry bread pudding stuffed pumpkin arrived for dessert! Afterwards, guests were invited outside to celebrate the brisk autumn air with root infused hot chocolate and a crackling fire. It was the best kind of experience-where you laughed, forgot time, and left with a smile on your face. It won't soon be forgotten!

nuit-blanche

 

As usual, my thoughts are permeated with Paris. The annual La Nuit Blanche is this weekend in Paris…the entire city is filled with art installations, late night museum hours, and performances. Since I cannot be there, I live vicariously through my francophile friends…bon weekend!

33tortoise

 

I am officially thirty-three years old today…do you see it in the tortoise shell?! Totally on trend, right? Thirty-two was an amazing, beautiful, memorable year, and the year to come holds so much excitement for me! The term "birthday" has taken on a whole new meaning now, as I celebrate the two little lives we brought into this world. They are my precious gifts, now and forevermore. I also consider all of you gifts, and I treasure the friendships I have formed online. Thank you for reading, as always!
