I’ve been itching to show you where I have been the past 3 years. A series of fortunate events has brought us to now – surrounded by the people I love the most.
I watch this year’s video with tears in my eyes because it’s filled with faces of the some of my most treasured moments with my most treasured people. I thank God everyday for bringing these people in my life; bucket fillers, heart warmers, bullet takers, ride or dies, my FOUND FAMILY!!!
I will forever remember 2025 as the year of celebration. Of everything coming full circle. I am planted in gratitude of all the captured and uncaptured moments.
I told you from the beginning, I do all this to one day prove to my kids that their mom used to be cool! “One day” is just a bit sooner than you thought 😉

Get ready to step into a world of aristocratic drama, hidden motives, and dangerous secrets — your mystery begins now…
As a grand and dramatic person, I had to do something grand and dramatic for my pregnancy reveal and that is how I came up with this murder mystery party. Everything is created from scratch, and I customized it specifically to fit my friends and my situation. That being said, this script can be used for any sort of outcome with a bit of tweaking on the “Solution Sheet”.
It was SO fun, everyone is STILL talking about it, and I got messages from all my friend’s parents, significant others, and anyone else I told passing by on the street that this was the coolest, most unique, and fun idea they had heard in a long time. Everyone involved said it was in their top 3 most fun nights they have ever had. I think using it as a reveal was the icing on the cake so if you can time it to do your share some special news, I would. This could be a pregnancy reveal, marriage proposal, gender reveal, elopement reveal, anniversary surprise, retirement farewell, new business launch, family reunion… the options are endless and I love any reason to gather and celebrate!
The only costs were for printing and I bought pizza that night for everyone. I used all the décor, costumes, props, etc.. that I had on hand. This was the cheapest event I have ever thrown and according to all my friends, the BEST event I have ever thrown. The effort put forth was the most consuming, but I have done all the hard work for you by creating a one-of-a-kind story and script. All you have to do is print and play!

2025 has been OH SO sweet… I needed to shake things up with a SOUR twist! This table scape was by far the cheapest I have ever spent on decor. You will find all you need in your fridge!
Citrus fruits; navel oranges, lemons, tangerines, and grapefruit – cut, stacked, and playfully arranged.
Asymmetrical decorations with some innovative and inventive mechanics; orange poppies and tangerine ranunculus florals propped up and spread about for a vibrant touch.
For the base, I had this light pink fabric for the table runner hiding in my closet. Then, I added some light pink candles that provided the perfect contrast but still was on team with the warm colors.
The best part is that you could do this with other fruit like apples, pomegranates, limes, grapes, and more! Ditch the patterns and embrace this fun, fresh, fruity idea. (And it made the room smell sooooo good.)
You could make your fruit or veggie centerpiece on theme with the meal you are serving; I chose citrus because my family was serving a start-of-summer breakfast/brunch.
That glorious weekend ritual where good food, great company, and even better drinks flow freely. It appeared to cost a fortune and required a 10-person team of mixologists. The truth? It was ridiculously easy and budget-friendly, all thanks to one simple secret: fruit-infused ice cubes!
Seriously, forget expensive syrups and complicated recipes. With just a little bit of prep, you can elevate your brunch beverage game from basic to breathtaking. The key is harnessing the natural beauty and flavor of fresh fruit (and even some herbs and veggies!)
The Magic of Infusion
The concept is so simple, it’s almost criminal how impressive the results are. I raided the my fridge for fruits in all shapes and colors: vibrant berries, juicy citrus, sweet melons. Then, I chopped them up and nestled them into ice cube molds. That’s it!
The beauty of these isn’t just their stunning visual appeal. As the ice melts, it gently infuses your drink with a burst of natural flavor. This means you can keep your base simple – juice, sparkling water, or even still water – and let the ice do the talking.
My Favorite Winning Combinations:
Imagine adding raspberry and chamomile ice to a gin and tonic, or lime and cucumber cubes to a refreshing vodka soda. The infused water enhances the existing flavors without overpowering them. Plus, they look incredibly chic!
Through a little delicious trial and error, I discovered some absolute knockout combinations:
Raspberry & Chamomile Flowers: The sweet tartness of the raspberries pairs beautifully with the delicate floral notes of chamomile. So elegant!
Lime & Cucumber: Incredibly refreshing and perfect for a light and bright brunch vibe.
Orange Slices, Blueberries & Mint: A classic combination that’s both zesty and subtly sweet, with a hint of coolness from the mint.
Prep Once, Impress All Brunch Long:
The best part? You can make a big batch of these infused ice cubes ahead of time. They store beautifully in the freezer, ready to add a touch of magic to any brunch gathering.
So next time you’re hosting, skip the expensive mixers and complicated cocktail recipes. Embrace the simple elegance of fruit-infused ice. Your guests will be wowed by the vibrant colors and delicious flavors, and you’ll be the savvy host who pulled it all off without breaking a sweat (or the bank!)
