I’m back with another Charleston post but this time with specific recommendations! Here they are in alphabetical order:

♥️ @basic_kitchen - lots of vegetarian options
♥️ @darling_oyster_bar - I don’t think you can beat $1 happy hour oysters EVERY DAY
♥️ @felixcharleston - loved the drinks and the bartender who was very helpful with my indecision
♥️ @jackrabbitfilly - the only food spot we repeated from last trip and it was as good as we remembered!
♥️ @theobstinatedaughter - loved up to the hype
♥️ @eattheordinary - another place that lived up to the hype!
♥️ @palmetto_breeze - the most affordable sail boat ride we found
♥️ @rodneyscottsbbq - if you want bbq in Charleston, go here over the other one 👀

Alex and I spent this week in Charleston, which was exactly what the doctor ordered! 🥰 Dare I say this was my favorite Charleston trip ever and possibly the best vacation of my life?! I will share more in the coming days but this trip’s highlights include drinking and eating lots with @thebrandelion and seeing @tracilawrence twice! ♥️♥️♥️

Hi, friends! I’m resurfacing on your feed after

Hi, friends! I’m resurfacing on your feed after a few weeks off because to be honest, I’ve been struggling lately. 2022 has been hard and I keep joking about how I’m falling apart but I might not be joking?! Anyways, I got overwhelmed with posting on IG and now it’s almost been a month since I last posted, which is the longest I’ve gone without posting I think! Instead of coming back with regular programming, I wanted to share how I’ve been feeling in case it resonates with anyone and I think it makes me feel better too. Hope everyone is doing well and sending hugs to everyone!

P.S. Alex and I went to @alleytwentysix and I FINALLY tried the infamous burger and I’m happy to report that it lived up to the hype for me! 🍔♥️

We did a belated Mother’s Day celebration today!

We did a belated Mother’s Day celebration today! Featuring: flowers from the farmer’s market and brunch turned lunch, and boba from @chahousecary 🧋 Not pictured: all the BTS gifts from @sujungchronicles and our brother who actually exists and was present today.

Huge thanks to @vangflowers for the beautiful bouquet (only $20!!!) and @lucky32cary for accommodating our large group without a reservation.

P.S. I almost didn’t post the first photo because of the taillights but my mom was too cute not to!!! 😭💜 cute moms >>> cute backdrops

Why didn’t we have @mezcalitonc in Clayton when

Why didn’t we have @mezcalitonc in Clayton when I lived there?! My sister @sujungchronicles has been frequenting Mezcalito recently and I had been feeling serious FOMO. When they invited me, I was ecstatic and made a list of what to order based on Sujung’s recommendations lol #hosted

Here’s what we tried:
♥️ Birria fries (my favorite! big enough to be a meal)
♥️ Parrillada (meat platter)
♥️ Mariscada (seafood platter)
♥️ Cantarito cocktail (a little bit spicy)
♥️ Mangonada margarita (HUGE—see Alex pics for scale)

We enjoyed everything tans would get everything again! Their portion sizes are huge—Alex and I got three meals out of what’s pictured. Last but not least, they’re opening a Durham location later this year, which I’m really excited about!!!

P.S. special shout-out to Alex for sitting outside while it was freezing so I could have good lighting for photos. You can see him in a very tight jacket that is mine lol

Celebrated @thejiyoungshin and @thedmunns’s unio

Celebrated @thejiyoungshin and @thedmunns’s union yesterday! Congratulations to the happy couple and welcome to the family, Daniel! 🥰♥️

Happy wedding week to @thejiyoungshin ♥️♥️

Happy wedding week to @thejiyoungshin ♥️♥️♥️ We took a short trip to Charlottesville to celebrate and did a bunch of talking/eating/drinking. It was low-key and perfectly Jiyoung! Can’t wait for Friday!

Pro tip: you can go to @pippinhillfarm without a reservation if you’re okay with sitting on the lawn! 🥰🍷

Though I feel like I’m still recovering from it,

Though I feel like I’m still recovering from it, I’m so happy I made it to @salemcollege this weekend to celebrate Salem’s 250th anniversary (and my belated 5 year reunion)! The only regret I have is not being there for the entire weekend! I’m always missing Salem and Winston when I’m not there and this weekend just filled my cup. 💙💛💙💛
