Appetizing ATL

Kicking off 2022 with and dry-ish January!

We’re officially 5 months out from the wedding (I got engaged while I was MIA from posting the past few months!) so it’s crunch time for feeling and looking our best for the big day!

That means riding my more, eating a little cleaner and drinking a (little) less. With ’s 90 cal IPA Lay Low, I feel a little less guilty treating myself after a ride!

Anyone else have goals/resolutions in 2022??

Got fancy in the kitchen tonight with homemade mushroom risotto and seared scallops. Really liked this recipe, but be warned—risotto is A LOT of work. Pretty sure my right arm will be buff in the am. Next time, I think I’d use a different oil to sear the scallops—something with a higher smoke point to get a better sear. Any other tips from my home cooks out there??

If you’re looking for a mid-day pick-me-up, head over to and try their new Vietnamese Iced Coffee! I went yesterday and grabbed one for a Sunday treat and it was SO GOOD. The coffee is a special Vietnamese blend and it’s mixed with condensed milk to tame a little of that coffee bitterness. Go try it (they do curbside pick up!) and comment what you think below!!

This isn’t my usual content, but I have to post this rosemary and roasted garlic bread recipe I tried. It is so flavorful and was legit the easiest thing. Hardest part was waiting for the bread to rise! Got the recipe from , but swapped the fresh rosemary for dried. Go to her page or DM me for the recipe if you want to try!

Any bakers in the house? What have you been baking during quarantine??
