For almost 10 years we’ve been Blue Ridge CASA for Children Top Chef, tasting delectable bites from the regions best and helping Casa workers advocate for in the Valley. 🤍

It’s always a good time with friends and foodies, thanks for having us Casa!! 💙

If you’re thinking about grabbing an extra coffee this morning to help get you through the Mondays maybe skip it and let the dopamine rush of helping others replace it, those dollars to Casa. ❤️

Have a fantastic week friends!

We’re back from a trip celebrating the life of an extraordinary dad, husband, brother, uncle and friend.

He will be missed beyond measure but will live on in so many through stories, laughter and the occasional cry.

Please don’t mind us if we’re a little extra attentive to the FoB’s this season, we’re in our feels.

….

And happy to all the dads showing up for their bèbès this month and all the others!! 🌈

for ya since we’re headed back to with one of our favorites Mr (if you don’t know you need to know)

Unfortunately they don’t allow this type of thing anymore.. we were the one & done.. worth it! 🌈

We’re celebrating E&E’s weekend w/ bourbon, ci**rs, s’mores and minimalist modern decor 🖤🤍.. and maybeee.. we have another fun photo op planned w/ Mr Daly.. you’ll have to wait and see.

Have a fantastic weekend, cheers! 🥂

I dont know if we have or ever will again get this close to an inspo picture so I’m sharing here to give myself some credit for the color matching on this one. 😅

It’s not exact and never will be, we’re artists, but it’s pretty damn close without being a duplicate.

Thank you Mother Nature & for blessing us with these corals!! And for capturing it perfectly team!! 👏🏻

(Venue )

Hello friends, colleagues and clients, 👋🏻

You may have noticed that our “engagement” has been down and we seem a bit MIA.

We’re still here, still creating, planning and working we’ve just made the decision not to be held down by social media anymore.

Very recently Jason and I lost someone very close to us, it was devastating for our family and their friends.

One of my last conversations with them was about how stressful & anxiety inducing it is to constantly be trying to keep up, stay relevant, be loud but also quiet enough to protect our home and business, be present but also online.

It’s exhausting.

And just as nonchalant as one could they said “Well, you don’t HAVE to do it” “Just don’t”.

So here we are. Not doing it.

Life is fleeting, we exist once (unless you’re into reincarnation and in that case please bring me back as a chihuahua w/ 2 dads in Palm Springs) and as much as we love our jobs and you, we love our family and living more.

It’s only been a short time w/ our online detox but so far I love not knowing or caring where my phone is. I love having my coffee w/ the dogs and listening to the birds instead of doom scrolling through the angry rhetoric.

We’re here, we’re not going anywhere, we’re just choosing living over popularity.

We’ll check in, post in stories and share the fun when we think it’s something you’ll enjoy but we’re not just going to keep posting to keep us in the algorithm.

Be kind to yourself and others, don’t waste time on a**holes and unplug for awhile! 🤍

Love you, mean it.

2 years ago today we signed the contracts to purchase Rosie, aka 1461 East Main.

We still have LOTS of renovations to get through but we’re very proud of what we’ve accomplished thus far and couldn’t have done any of this without you.

Some days it’s overwhelming to think about what we have left and it’s hard to push through those feelings but we remind ourselves of what was and what is.

Charley Parkers has it’s first today and we couldn’t be more excited to , we’re so proud of this little and can’t wait to share it for many more years to come.

Drop in and share some celebratory sips with us!

I change my mind often, but for today, spring is my favorite season. 🌸

If your rescue dog isn’t your best mate what are you even doing?? 🐶
