Afrohead Rum Event at Amari

July 31, 2015 2

On Tuesday night, I attended the Nashville Chapter Launch for the Unscripted Bartender Series with Afrohead Rums with my friend Ashley of The Nashvillian Blog. The event was held at Amari in Hillsboro Village, a dim-lit speakeasy/cocktail lounge with an extensive liquor selection. It was a warm evening, but was fortunately cooler than the few nights prior after a thunderstorm swept through the city. An all-black jumper seemed appropriate for the night.

Being the amateur camera operator that I am, I wasn’t able to snap any gorgeous photos at the event with my DSLR, so I only took a few pictures with my iPhone because the room was so dark.

The Afrohead-specific cocktail menu had a variety of delicious drinks. I first tried the McClure’s Ruse and then ordered the C.R.E.A.M., I was delightfully satisfied with both of my choices.

It’s always a pleasure getting to spend time with this girl. I’m so glad she let me accompany her to this great event. Looking forward to more fun Nashville activities in the future!

Let it Go

July 29, 2015 0
Monday night we headed out to see James Bay play at Marathon Music Works. I threw on my typical concert-wear, black pants, basic tee, comfortable shoes. Had I known how insanely hot it would have been inside the venue, I probably would have worn shorts. It was a scorcher in Nashville.

The concert was amazing. It easily placed itself in one of my top 5 favorite concerts of all-time. If you ever get the chance to see James Bay live, I recommend doing so. His vocals were impeccable and his smooth guitar tones were right on the money.

Happy hump day, ya’ll!

Marché Artisan Foods

July 28, 2015 4

Yesterday morning, we finally made it over to Marché Artisan Foods in East Nashville. I’ve been dying to go for brunch for a couple months now, and we had the opportunity this past weekend since Steve and I both had an open weekend in Nashville together. I’d heard only amazing things from friends and coworkers.
When we first walked in, we put our name in [about an hour wait, which is typical for this hot brunch spot], then we headed over to the cafe area in the back where we were able to order an iced latte, Oragnina, and fresh croissant.

We spent about 10 minutes deciding on what we were going to order, because everything listed on their menu sounded perfect. I finally settled on the sweet crepes with blueberries and goat cheese, and Steve ordered the omelet, which contained Mexican chorizo and feta.

Everything was absolutely delicious. The whipped goat cheese was rich, but complimented the tart blueberries and powdered sugar perfectly. I tried a bite of Steve’s omelet and it was bursting with flavor. We were satisfied with our choices, but already can’t wait to go back and try different things on their brunch menu.

The Listening Room

July 27, 2015 0
This week, Steve and I finally had an entire weekend together with no gigs, no work, no events, etc. It was awesome. We knew this was the perfect opportunity to do uniquely Nashville activities together. We love driving around the different neighborhoods of Nashville and exploring new parts of town. We snapped some photos in Sylvan Park at a place called Import Flowers, where they have adorable murals of sunflowers and gardens on the outdoor walls.

We kicked off the weekend Friday evening with a round at The Listening Room Cafe, where we saw Laura Veltz, Sean McConnell, Jimmy Robbins, and Maren Morris blow us away with their original tunes. It was #1 hit, after #1 hit, after #1 hit that evening. If you don’t know who they are, look them up, trust me. It’s so fantastic to see such incredibly talented songwriters any night of the week in Nashville. It’s such an inspiring and supportive community.

It was the perfect Friday evening in downtown Nashville. It was also the perfect way to spend the first night of our full weekend together for the first time in what seems like forever.
I hope you all had a beautiful weekend.

Basic

July 20, 2015 0

I’m back from another whirlwind weekend in West Michigan, where I spent my time hosting my sister’s first baby shower and playing some tunes with Steve at The Back Forty Saloon in Grand Rapids. It’s always so nice to go home and see family, but it’s never long enough. I wish I had a bit more time to sit back and relax, but it was a fun weekend nonetheless and I’m glad I saw as many people as possible. Chances are I won’t be back again until Labor Day Weekend, so I have to soak it in while I can.
