Five Friday Favorites | 82 | Fall Foliage in NYC, UES French Bakery, Netflix Show, Ricotta Toast & More
- Miss Madeline French Bakery- The quiche at this bakery is phenomenal. The croissants weren’t my favorite but I’d definitely go back for the quiche.
- The Perfect Couple- If you haven’t seen this show yet, you must live under a rock. It’s such a well-done show. It is based on the murder mystery book by Eilen Hilderbrand. It’s incredible.
- F.Y.C.-Also stands for Family You Choose. This is a beautiful new restaurant that a friend introduced me to. The Wagu burger was divine.
- Bondurants- This is a quaint and sophisticated bar with delicious small plates. The ricotta toast was delicious.
- The weather in NYC right now- I spent all weekend walking through Central Park! Peak foliage is here and it’s beautiful.

Five Friday Favorites | 81 | Best Italian on the UES, North Fork Vineyard, Book Favorite & UES Speakeasy
- 83 1/2- Alex said this is one of his top five favorite meals of all time. It was absolutely delicious. I had the lobster ravioli with vodka sauce and it did not disappoint. I think Monday nights is BYOB!
- Swan Song- I have become a huge Elin Hilderbrand fan. I finished the Swan Song a few weeks ago and absolutely loved it.
- Terra Vite North Fork Winery and Vineyard - I took the day off and my mom and I drove out east to Jamesport for a little wine tasting. Most vineyards on the North Fork don’t have lunch options, but this is one that did. The sandwiches were pretty good but the potato chips were better. Super fun girl’s day trip.
- Hill House Vivi Dress- Hill House can do no wrong in my book. They have the best dresses. This is the one I picked up this fall (seen above). I will probably wear it for Thanksgiving with a sweater and tall boots. If you really look at the print you will see horses.
- Keys & Heels- This is such a cool speakeasy. It is right next to UVA on the Upper East Side. It looks like a key and shoe repair shop, but it’s really a fabulous bar. The drinks were delicious. Great vibes with a beautiful interior. They take walk ins and reservations.

My Best Friend’s Wedding at Bordes Wine Vineyard in Sonoma, California
My best friend, Kate, got married to her best friend in August at Bordes Wine Vineyard in Sonoma, California.
It was the most beautiful wedding.
Kate has been my dearest friend from North Carolina to France, Austria, Spain, Switzerland, Hungary, NOLA, New York and everywhere in between, even in California for her wedding. It is such a blessing that we can travel together. I was so honored to stand by her side and I am even more honored that I call her my best friend and she call me hers.
Please enjoy these beautiful photos from the best day in August 2024.

Five Friday Favorites | 80 | French, Italian, Mexican and Greek Food in NYC & Once Upon a Mattress on Broadway
- Le Gratin- My dad took me to lunch one day and I got to pick the spot! This Chef Boulud restaurant is famous for their namesake, le gratin, creamy potatoes. This place was hopping at lunch hour and it did not disappoint. My dad is still talking about it!
- UVA Next Door- I met a friend for dinner here. We had a delicious goat cheese pizza with a kale salad.
- Molyvos- Before heading to the theater, my mom and I grabbed dinner at this beautiful restaurant. We had all our favorite spreads and dips to start and then we both had the Moussaka. Best Moussaka I’ve ever had.
- Once Upon a Mattress- Sutton Foster is the star in this absolutely goofy and hysterical show. She was a joy to watch. Highly recommend!
- Toloache- Now that Alex is an Upper East sider we’ve been trying out all the new spots. This spot is upscale yet traditional Mexican food. Alex gave it his seal of approval.
