Hi! I’m Olivia and I blog over at Everyday Musings about food and travel and dinner parties and brunch and my charming home, Charleston. Come August, I’m leaving my beloved home to spend some invaluable time traveling and living in new places (more about my upcoming adventures here and here).
Summertime is always my favorite time, but this year it seems even more special since I’m leaving so soon. Here are a few things that have defined my summer thus far (I think it’s going to be a great one).
1. Roasted veggie porch dinners with friends, where candles are a must.
2. Days spent on empty beaches at Sullivan’s Island.
3. Mexican food, every single day. I’m finding it difficult to go 24 hours without a margarita.
4. With Mexican food comes giant sombreros, clearly.
5. Big Italian feasts on patios under string lights, with lots of cheersing and dancing.
6. Hikes in dresses on a farm in the foothills of Arkansas.
7. Chocolate lavender macarons, homemade by my little sister.
8. Random adventures on golf courses documented by goofy self-timer shots.
9. Mint and basil vegetable garden rolls.
10. Abandoned sunsets too pretty to be real.
