Ginger-Lemongrass Saison Cocktail

SAMSUNG CSC

A delicious summer cocktail for craft beer & ginger lovers

Maui-brewing-company DSC_2643

I originally got the idea for this cocktail from an edition of Beer Advocate Magazine, one of my boyfriend’s monthly subscriptions. I love how they feature beer cocktails, and every once in a while some unique vegan and veggie recipes too! While some of their cocktails recipes are pretty intense (I have a list I’m going to tackle) others give you quick suggestions on basic ingredients to mix. I love how these cocktails work so well for beer lovers and non-beer lovers alike. Besides the tasty craft beer that’s involved, the mixers take away from the “beer” taste and basically leave you with an delicious effervescent libation.

Free Fridays! Downloadable Designs

ipad-screensaver-herringbone

Welcome to the first installment of Free Fridays! I’ve been at the blogging thing for a good 4 months now so I’ve decided to do my first weekly theme. Every Friday I’m going to be giving links to download new designs/doodles/art for you to download and enjoy! If you’re on your phone or iPad, click on the link and the image will pop up on your screen. Hold down the image and save it to your camera roll then add it to your home screen, icon screen, etc. If you’re on your computer it will go right into your download folder.

Where can you use this art? Well, I’ve started by offering links to download for all of your handheld devices to use for a home screen, wallpaper, etc. Maybe you want to print it out and use it for wrapping paper, scrapbooking, greeting cards, the sky is the limit. I only ask that if you use it online for something that you link it back to me:) And maybe show a little love…follow me on some of my social media platforms, too!

If there’s some sort of design you would love to see, let me know! I love getting new ideas, cheers!

Boho 72 Boutique

In love with central Ohio boutique, Boho 72!

Boho 72 (2)

During one of my final days in Ohio before returning to LA, I had to stop at my favorite little boutique–Boho 72! This adorable boho-inspired shop is located in my hometown, Dublin, Ohio. Jamie Mollwitz opened this shop in 2011 with the help of her family, including her daughter (and friend of mine from middle and high school) Clair Salter. So not only do I get to pick up some awesome threads to take back to LA, I get to catch up with a good friend!Continue reading…

 Brothers Drake Meadery in Columbus Ohio

SAMSUNG CSC

I just finished an epic week of fiddle camp where you sleep less than four hours a night, jam all day, perform at night and then jam until sunrise! At fiddle camp (aka Creative Strings Workshop) there are tons of opportunities to perform all throughout Columbus, Ohio. One performance spot was at a new super hip joint in the Short North called Brothers Drake. Brothers Drake Meadery is an urban producer of wines made from honey. Sourced from local wildflower honey their mead is only sold in the Greater Columbus area. What is mead? It’s an awesomely tasty drink that uses fermented honey as its primary sugar source. Even believed to be the ancestor of all fermented drinks!Continue reading…

RETRO, WHITE & BLUE!

What better way to celebrate 4th of July than with lamé headbands, red lips and a ball pit!?!

Yes, this ball pit is in our backyard. It’s a recent addition…leftover from a birthday party. While it was set up I had to take some photos in it! I’ve been waiting for the opportunity to wear this awesomely retro body suit, and here is the premier!Continue reading…

Party Drinks! Gin Fizz and Mango Vodka

 Serving up large quantities of quality cocktails for your party

SAMSUNG CSC

Using large drink carafes is a perfect way to keep your guests’ thirst quenched. With just a little bit of prep, it saves from someone having to play bartender all night or people making a mess out of a table filled with liquor and mixers. And as you know, as long as the drinks are flowing, your guests are happy and ready to party. It’s always difficult to estimate how much liquor to purchase and/or mixers to make drinks for your party, so I’ve broken it down into a simple grocery list and recipe for two awesome drinks! These amounts are for a party with roughly 30-40 guests with beer options to drink as well. Any more than 40 and you should add a third carafe.Continue reading…

A night out in Hollywood

 A night at Hotel Cafe, Hollywood

If you’re a musician and you live in LA, you know about Hotel Cafe. It’s THE place for singer-songwriters to perform in Hollywood. This past Monday night, I went to support a colleague of mine…amazing guitarist and new to the singer-songwriter world, Zane Carney. I first met Zane about 4 years ago when we both performed with Katie Melua (a British singer-songwriter) on the Jimmy Kimmel show. I’ve been on Zane’s email list for years and FINALLY have been able to make it to a show. You know, the musician life is crazy with shows and tours…it’s never easy to make it out to see your favorite people perform. Zane is a member of the band Carney and recently got the gig as John Mayer’s guitar player for his tour this summer! I’m so stoked for him, John Mayer is absolutely one of my faves:) I was super impressed with Zane’s performance, if you haven’t heard of him, CHECK HIM OUT! He’s been a lead guitarist forever, but just recently started writing and singing his own songs, so inspiring! Photo sourceContinue reading…

Vegan Blueberry Kale Salad

Blueberry-Kale-salad

 The perfect salad to keep you cool this summer

Blueberry-kale-salad-2

Blueberries are in season and I want to add them to everything! They especially go quite well with kale–it balances out the bitter factor:) I can’t take complete credit for this creation…the recipe was born when I was preparing food for my boyfriend’s birthday party and my good friend (also private chef to the stars) came to my rescue and started throwing anything that looked good in my kitchen into this salad. I have a feeling this is going to be a staple for the summer.Continue reading…

Boho Bunnie goes to fiddle camp!

What’s the difference between a violin and a fiddle? A violin has strings and a fiddle has STRANGS!

In less than I week I’m headed to Ohio to go to fiddle camp! Yes, I’m well into my professional career as a musician, but there will always be a drive to learn more! I trained as a classical violist since I was nine, studied jazz in college, play in rock bands in LA, but ever since I landed a spot in Shania Twain’s band I’m totally into country music and bluegrass! I have 4 months off until our next run with Shania in October, so I’ve decided to make the best of my summer by studying fiddle music, taking vocal lessons, and working on my pedal steel guitar. I’ve laid out some essentials that I absolutely must take with me on my trip.Continue reading…
