Inspired: Homestead

I have reservations tonight at the Publican, a meatcentric restaurant in Chicago and the inspiration for this board. It's no secret that I'm a carnivore. I love pretty much anything that you barbecue or put on a grill and think it would be super awesome to base an event around a menu of meat. Add whisky tasting and a cigar bar and you've got yourself a party worthy of the most masculine of men.

Atlanta area meat meccas:
Abbatoir, Maple Bacon Beignets
Kevin Rathbun Steak, Porterhouse for Two
Woodfire Grill, Bacon Jam

I love, love these darling dress hangers from LilaFrances. They make the perfect shower gift or special touch for one of the most special parts of the day {putting on THE dress!}. She is running about 8 to 10 weeks on orders, so summer brides check out her etsy page and place your order soon!

Apologies all around for the lack of blog presence. We've been super busy with Julie + Thomas' wedding, revamping the website and working on the upcoming launch of our new side project, fig + pheasant {can't wait to tell you more about that soon!}. Hopefully, this sweet treat will do for now.

Derby Day

It's Derby Day and if you're like us, you won't be at Churchill Downs. Never one to let that hinder the party, we'll be kicking back with a julep {or two} and turning on the telly just in time for the call to post. Our choice? Lookin' at Lucky, naturally.
