Kermit’s Outlaw Kitchen on Tupelo Main Street (there isn’t even a website for me to link). It has been hard for us to find unique, local places to eat in North West Mississippi, since fast food restaurants dominate the main roads. This place was a true gem. Everything was fresh, local. My only regret is that we didn’t discover it sooner. It was wonderful, exactly what I had hoped to eventually find during my time down south.

Back in one of my favorite cities. New Orleans, Carnival 2015. Of course we came back another year, this time, with friends. Last year was too much fun.

Another friends’ weekend at Bretton Woods. Warm and cozy by the fire. “Live free or die.”

These past several months have been a whirlwind. Mississippi, Italy, everywhere in between. I am grateful for adventures, but I am also so grateful for Home for the Holidays. Even in the ice and snow. I love my friends, family dinners, Boston.

“Now really, go back and get some more gelato. I’m not kidding – you are in Florence, and in a few short days, you won’t be anymore. You would hate to live a life of regret knowing you didn’t live life to the fullest.”
Florence was magical. Within a day, it felt like home. The food, the art, wandering aimlessly through the beautiful city. Ten days flew by too quickly. We’ll be back.

Wandering the streets of Rome, without a plan. Spontaneously ordering cappuccinos & cannolis in the square with the live music. History. Wine. Thousands of years in one weekend.
