This summer is starting off with more than enough on my plate. So far the Marriott Marquis and RAMMYS 2014 have shown this is going to be an awesome few months of warm weather and fun events. See some pics from these events and a few things to look forward to in the coming weeks.

THE RAMMYS 2014

RAMMYS 14 Red Carpet

With my Favorite Teacher of All Time!! Chef Allyson Lara …She’s the reason I put Cumin in everything!

Gotta have burgers to soak up all the booze at the RAMMYS. #funtimes

COMING UP:

ROSE’S LUXURY on the rooftop. If you have not pinned down ten of your friends willing to do this dinner, I suggest you find new friends (just kidding). I do strongly suggest this dining destination where every foodie and their mama is stalking reservation space, yours truly included. I will visit the hot spot later this summer with some lovely foodie gals.

Mary DeVito, formerly of Girl Meets Food, has a new line of products that will make this 4th of July so pleasurable outdoors. Naked Botanicals have arrived and will be available at the Kennedy Street Festival. Get Free Shipping using the promo code “FREESHIPPY” when you order here before the fireworks (*before July 4th).
