I envy the British for their afternoon tea time with mini cakes and finger sandwiches. I think it’s such a great way to break up the day and take a few minutes to self reflect or loathe or listen to other peoples drama. Is that too much? Queen Catherine of Braganza, a Portuguese women who…
Setting up the Set When I started with PowerHouse Productions in September of this year I had not a clue what I would be exposed to, who I would meet, and what it would be like leading culinary on projects that my bosses and Executive Producers Rochelle Brown and Sonia Armstead produced. I was granted…
This year along with Harney and Sons Tea I will be giving away a special gift inclusive of Harney and Sons Tea products! Here is what you need to tell me…. I want to know what it is that makes your favorite food memories so special. Food in some form is always a part of…
Thanksgiving is brisk this year, which means more reason to indulge in food that makes you feel cozy. More reason to drink a stronger, astringent @Harney teas Hauraki Frost from Southern India. A tea that mellows out the buttery Cherry Diane, Pumpkin, and Apple Crisp pies! There’s something comforting about taking the initial bite of pie and…
Weekends almost feel like a blank canvas. What’s to do? I need to keep work incorporated into most of my days even if I’m not on set or sitting at a desk, or else I feel kind of lost. It keeps me on track with what’s to come. It keeps me feeling like I am…
I wasn’t quite sure what story to lead on Cinnamon tea for the month of October. Not to mention I am a bit behind on this post now that we have landed in November. But I feel this is all for good reason. I think that the last two weeks of straight work on and…

Over the last few weeks, I have been talking about food memories and reaching out to you to share them with me. Now I would like to reflect one of mine. I think there really is something “magical” about Christmas time. Whether you celebrate it or not there’s always a special feeling that evokes the…
Memories go Here Nothing more do I love than a perfectly creamy and indulgently sweet chai tea. I am in love. I always get Chai tea wherever I go even if it’s the cafe at the edge of town. Except Italy! I don’t remember how I got through without my chai? Nonetheless, it’s my favorite,…
Living in NYC doesn’t always make me feel “at home”. It isn’t always the coziest and it’s sometimes too boisterous for my granny like nature. But what I did realize coming back after the holiday was that it allows me to really focus and hone in on me. I get to pick from dozens of…
I share European-inspired recipes, collabs, adventures, pop-ups, and more! Plus, don't miss out on Sunday Night Pasta Programming for all the cozy dinner feels.
