Tuesday Treasures is back with an unexpected and totally unintended find!

Eric and I went to South Africa for our honeymoon in 2022 after our wedding was postponed for 2 years! We had the most magical time visiting Cape Town, Franschhoek, and even went to Kruger National Park for a safari!

We stayed at La Residence in Franschhoek while visiting the w**e region and unfortunately, after drinking too much w**e, our room key somehow ended up going home with us! We were MORTIFIED! Anyway, years later, I decided to take the key out of our junk drawer and have it custom framed! We love it and remember our time in South Africa every-time we see it!

What’s something unique you’d like to frame?

Mayo is better than ketchup, especially when it comes to dipping your fries.

Don’t remember the last time I dipped a fry in ketchup. I personally feel like a lot of ketchup is just blah, and I LOVE mayo or a flavored aioli with my fries! Even better? Dijonaise!!!!!! (It’s just mayo and Dijon mustard, and it’s the best fry dipping sauce there is.)

Then again, I used to ask my mom to pack me “mayo sandwiches” as a kid, so maybe this was always going to happen.

Team ketchup, team mayo, or team aioli? Tell me where you land.

Homemade blue cheese stuffed olives for the ultimate dirty martini, and they’re so much easier than you’d think.

All you need is big green olives, creamy blue cheese, a little cream cheese, and a splash of heavy cream. Pit the olives, mix the filling, and pipe it in with a Ziploc bag with the corner snipped off. Tuck them back into their brine and chill for 30 minutes so everything sets.

They take about 15 minutes of hands-on time and taste just like the ones you get at a fancy steakhouse. Perfect for martini night, a charcuterie board, or snacking straight from the fridge.

Comment OLIVE and I’ll send you the full recipe.

Best hotel restaurant in London: L’oscar London serves Nikkei and European food on one menu, and the wagyu crispy rice alone is worth the booking.

Dinner at the hotel is usually a backup plan, but this one might have been the best meal of our whole trip.

The menu is split between Nikkei (Japanese-Peruvian) on one side and European classics on the other, and our server knew both inside and out, so he talked us through each side and gave us great recommendations.

We started with the mini sourdough loaf served with seaweed butter, which had exactly the texture you want from bread at a restaurant like this.

From the Nikkei side we got the wagyu tartare on crispy rice, like the spicy tuna crispy rice you’ve probably had, but with wagyu beef tartare on top of rice that’s crisp on the outside and fluffy inside. It was perfectly textured, packed with flavor, and easily one of the best bites of food I’ve ever had. We also got the miso black cod.

From the European side came a truffle pasta that did not hold back on the truffle, and I’m not complaining.

We finished with the skillet cookie, the perfect way to end the night.

The room is stunning too, all gilded mirrored ceilings and rich jewel tones, so dinner felt like an occasion even though all we had to do was take the elevator.

If you’re looking for where to eat in London near Covent Garden, this is a great spot for dinner before a show. Book a table at L’oscar. L'oscar London

My husband and I almost made a HUGE mistake a few weeks ago: purchasing a home more than twice the cost of our current house, with more than triple the interest rate.

Why? Because we loved the layout and it was old and beautiful and had tons of storage and had a witchy vibe. But in the end we had to ask ourselves if it was worth it… and, it wasn’t to us!

So now we are working room by room to turn our house into our dream home. I’ll be sharing decluttering projects, home decor, and renovations with you all and I can’t wait to get started!

Let’s turn this cape into the old home of my dreams!

Best meal of our 48 hours in London, hands down, and it was a Greek restaurant called Maza.

Everything about it felt fresh and warm, from the food to the service, which was some of the most welcoming we’ve had anywhere. Everyone around us was drinking ch*****ne at lunch, so naturally we did too, and then we started with the tuna crudo and the tzatziki with pita, plus a Greek salad that tasted like it came straight from a garden. We split the pork belly gyros, which come deconstructed so you build each bite exactly the way you want it, and every piece of it was bright and full of flavor.

The room itself is gorgeous too, which made the whole afternoon feel special. I’m already dreaming about going back for their tableside spicy feta, which they couldn’t serve the day we were there because they couldn’t get the peppers from Greece that week. If that doesn’t tell you how seriously this place takes its ingredients, I don’t know what does.

If you’re headed to London, save this one for your list.

Tuesday Treasures is back, and today’s haul might be one of my favorites yet.

I stopped into Simply Vintage by the Sea in Norwell, Massachusetts, which if you haven’t been, is one of my favorite kinds of vintage shops. It’s one store but packed with different vendors who each curate their own little section, so you get all these different styles and eras under one roof. Simply Vintage By The Sea

First find: a gorgeous old gold clock stamped London, which felt like fate since my husband does a lot of his work there. I’m renovating his office this winter and this is going to be the first piece I style in it.

One of my favorite vendors at Simply Vintage by the Sea is Woodrift Home, and I could not stop pulling things from their section. I walked away with three platters, all heavy, sturdy, almost iron-like. One has a beautiful scalloped handle on both sides, another has the most intricate little feet, and the third is my favorite of the haul, with carved shell detailing along the border and a patina you cannot fake.

Last but not least, a light blue speckled tart dish that I already have plans for. Spring and summer pies, obviously, but also the perfect size for a cheese board or a girl dinner on the couch, the rim keeps everything contained in the best way. (Also from woodrift home)! Woodrift Home

If you love thrifting, antiquing, or hunting down pieces with real history, Simply Vintage by the Sea in Norwell needs to be on your list. And if you love finds like this, follow along, I’ll be sharing a new treasure every single Tuesday.

Flying to London for a cheeky little date weekend with my husband who is there for work!!!! I used to be an over packer but now that i have a kid, when i fly alone I have turned into a minimalist!

I always bring two bags: a bag for my trip and a bag to use for the carryon and i sort of do a Russian doll type situation with them! Hoping to sleep as much as I can but also so excited to keep reading the throne of glass series!
