Brewing Up Holiday Cheer with Hamilton Beach

Can you believe there is only 6 days until Christmas?!? I definitely can’t. It seems like Thanksgiving happened just last week! Anyone else feel like we need one more week to prepare?! Today I wanted to share this cute little Christmas coffee bar that I put together last week! During the holidays especially, I love entertaining. In fact, I had a few of my girlfriends over for a fun girls night last night where we wore our Christmas PJs, baked cookies, and watched a cheesy Christmas movie. I had this cute little Christmas-y cof[...]

Holiday Entertaining with Santa Margherita

Disclaimer: This post is sponsored by Santa Margherita, but all thoughts and opinions are my own. Happy November, guys! Now that Halloween has passed, it's officially the holiday season! With the holidays comes a lot of parties and entertaining, which I always get so excited about. Each year, I always try to host/plan one party, whether it be for my girls' Bible study group, Friendsgiving, Christmas, or New Years. A few years ago I hosted a classy Christmas soireé and it was so much fun, I think I'm going to do it again this year! You can never go wrong with a s[...]

Everything You Need for a Summer Girls Night

Disclaimer: This post is sponsored by AVA Grace Vineyards. It's officially been Summer for over a week now, and one of my favorite parts about Summer is spending time with my friends out on the patio during the evenings!

Every girls night needs wine (if you're over 21), specifically rosé! I enjoy a variety of red wines but my favorites are definitely rosé and a crisp white. They're perfect for the warmer Summer weath[...]

My Cinco de Mayo Fiesta!

For the past few years, I've wanted to host a Cinco de Mayo fiesta, but just never got around to it. I finally decided that I was going to make it happen this year, and it ended up being so much fun! For the most of the party/entertaining posts I've done here on AGU, I didn't actually have the party. So this year I decided to invite a few of my best friends over to partake in the festivities! We had so much fun being silly while taking pictures and sipping margaritas. The menu consisted of tacos, chips and guac, and margaritas. I forgot to warm up the cor[...]

Corn Salsa Recipe

If you follow me on Snapchat, then you've probably seen that I've been making a bunch of healthy food lately! I'm on a health kick right now mostly because of stomach issues, but also because I just want to feel better and look better. Every summer, my mom always makes this delicious corn salsa/salad that's so delicious, but she seems to change it up a little bit every time. Because I love it so much, I decided to make my favorite version and share the recipe with you guys! It's so yummy and filling, but still light & refreshing for summer. WHAT YOU'LL[...]
