    Olive Oil Cake with Midtown Olive Oil

    May 1, 2020 /

    Hi, friends! As we’ve been staying home, I know a lot of us are spending time cooking and baking. Ever since I learned that there is such a thing as olive oil cake, I have wanted to bake one. Thanks to stay-at-home order, it finally happened, and I was so happy with how the cake turned out! #quarantinebaking

We were in New Orleans last Friday for a hot secon We were in New Orleans last Friday for a hot second en route to a wedding in Alabama. We had approximately 3 waking hours in town and managed to have seafood lunch and check out @faulknerhousebooks!

Happy Friday, friends! Today I’m sharing a littl Happy Friday, friends! Today I’m sharing a little wedding planning update that no one asked for 😆 We got our save the dates in the mail yesterday, which we DIYed for less than $5(!!!) after watching a TikTok video! We still have a long way to go but we feel good about everything so far and not too stressed so fingers crossed it stays that way!
 
P.S. swipe to see some of the iPhone selfies that did not make it into the save the date but are still gold so I had to share with the world

Went to LA last week and had so much fun! The last Went to LA last week and had so much fun! The last time I was in LA was back in 2006 when my family moved to the US so this was basically my first time visiting! From eating all the food to visiting bookshops, we kept busy! Here were my favorites from this trip:
 
BOOKS
♥️ not pictured but @aladinbook is the largest Korean bookstore I’ve been to in the states and it gave me so much nostalgia for the bookshop in my hometown!
♥️ @lastbookstorela was worth all the hype! It’s huge and gorgeous. The upstairs is like a maze in the most fun way.
♥️ @therippedbodice might be the cutest bookshop I’ve been to! They focus on romance books and every corner is adorable.
 
FOOD
♥️ @bcdtofuhouse opens at 6:30am and you can have spicy raw crabs for breakfast #bless
♥️ @hanu.kbbq.la was some of the best kbbq experience!
♥️ @oakobing — go here and get the melon bingsu
♥️ @sushigendtla — three words: medium fatty tuna
 
THINGS TO DO
♥️ @gettymuseum specifically the Getty Villa—so much fun and FREE (parking is $20 though)
♥️ @santamonicapier was touristy but very cute!
 
I don’t think I’ll be visiting LA anytime soon (I’m still recovering from the flight) but I can’t wait to go back and eat more 🥰
Alex and I went to M Sushi at @fentonnc to celebra Alex and I went to M Sushi at @fentonnc to celebrate our anniversary a couple of months ago! We did the omakase and LOVED it. If you have something to celebrate, are looking for a date night spot, or simply want good sushi—highly, highly recommend!
 
Have you checked out @m_restaurants’s Cary location yet?
