Friday Five.

My friend, Kathryn, has opened an Etsy shop called Love Raleigh Creative that y'all should check out! She currently has downloadable prints, but will soon have monogrammable items for sale, too. 

This print she customized and blew up for Emily's nursery!

She has also started blogging again. Go here to follow her!

Wednesday evening, I, along with 7 other local bloggers, participated in the Food Lion Frugal Cook Off! I will be doing a full post about it soon, but here's a short video to give you a nice little tease.

My beloved tassel keychain went MIA a few weekends ago so I hopped on Etsy and found this monogram keychain that was a perfect replacement. I ordered the small geometric size in green marble.

The Spring issue of Charleston Weddings Magazine came out this week and one of our pictures was featured in their dancing section! The guys in the picture are Cameron's best friend and my best friend's husband. They were both hilarious all night long trying to out dance one another. So glad our awesome photographer, Juliet Elizabeth, caught them on camera. Our announcement is also featured in the back of the magazine. :)

Last night, Cameron and I, had an impromptu date night at The Bar at Husk. It is one of our favorite spots to grab a delicious burger and a drink (beer for me, bourbon for Cameron). Definitely one of our favorite burgers in Charleston, and without the hefty Husk pricetag. :)

Off to get my hair done then on to work! 

Happy Friday!

Cameron's Birthday Dinner at Husk.

Our dinner at Husk for Cameron's birthday was one for the books! All of the food was delicious and we were treated like royalty.

First, let's talk about my dress! I originally ordered it to wear to my friend, Kristen's, wedding in September, but there was no way I could let it sit unworn in my closet until then. This was the perfect occasion to break it out.
 
It's from Fiore Boutique and I'm obsessed.
(You'll probably recognize Caitlin on their website!)

PS- How do you take a picture of the back of your dress without looking awkward?

Now on to dinner...

We arrived half an hour before our reservation and went to Husk's bar next door. Cameron ordered a bourbon on the rocks and I ordered a "frou frou" bourbon drink..which I can't find on their website, but it was a peach flavored bourbon with other accompaniments. :)

 

When we arrived to our table for dinner, we were handed this menu!

I made this reservation so long ago, I had forgotten that I even told them it was his birthday.

Points for me!

 

Also when we sat down, we were handed two glasses of champagne!

So this is what it feels like to be a celeb? I'll take it!

As an appetizer, we ordered "Dave’s Clams with Fried Chicken Skins, Red Pepper-Spring Garlic Broth, Fennel and Wilted Arugula, Sunny Side Up Egg"

As assumed, the crispy chicken skins were the best part.

We also ordered the "Kurios Bibb with Heirloom Tomatoes, Screened Egg, Milk Ricotta, Shaved Radish and Onion, Buttermilk" salad, but I start digging in before I could get a picture.

 

For dinner, I ordered the "TX Wagyu Sirloin, Nicola Potatoes, Sweet Onion and Garlic Soubise, Ember Roasted Mushrooms, KY Worcestershire"

 

And Cameron ordered one of the special's that night...a 30oz ribeye! For the record, neither one of us heard the "30oz" part of the description..and I'd say only about 10-12oz of it was actually edible after you got rid of the bone and fat.



 

 

He even got to pick out his own fancy steak knife!

 

And a side of "Baked Geechie Boy Grits with SC Mushrooms and Sweetwater Valley Cheddar"

Holy moly those were good.

 

Hope you enjoyed dinner, Cameron!

Also hope you enjoy eating pb&j's until next pay day!

Kidding....kind of...
