Bites of My Life

When your mom calls you a few weeks ago and says she and your dad booked a trip to New York and flights are $200 round trip, you go. Such a fun weekend in New York getting to see my sister and her husbands new-ish place and spend the weekend with family! After being in OKC at the beginning of the week for work, then catching a stomach bug, pushing through a few work days back in Dallas, then it was off to New York!

-Monday night in Norman speaking at OU KKG chapter meeting with my sidekick. We spoke on tips for getting a job, life in marketing and how to get paid doing social media!
-Recipe and development for The Social Order’s newest concept.
-100% satisfied with this impulse Barefood Contessa mug purchase.
-Miso Instant Ramen from Trader Joes. Add broccoli or a green veggie of your choice to the broth. And then stock your pantry with these. So good.
-Off to Brooklyn in a Brooklyn sweatshirt. Really leaning into the final destination.
-Officially that person bringing my own cooked food on the plane. I opted for a cooked sweet potato with almond butter. Filling and smell level at a low.
-Cliche Brooklyn graffiti photo, check.
-DATE CAKE. We stayed in on Saturday night. Claire and Mike baked this cake from the Gjelina cookbook to go with dinner.
-My sister’s bathroom is a mirror selfie waiting to happen.
-Trying to live in a city where eating bagels is more the norm. I’ve been a big proponent of more carbs in 2020.
-Anyone else an orange wine enthusiast like me?
-Great last meal at Win Son to end a great trip!

Bites of My Life

Last Tucker girl standing. Claire is officially a married women. Serious depression flying home yesterday from such an incredible weekend. Still haven't slipped back into routine, Hint why this post is coming at you Monday night. 

Kathleen, John, Elle and I landed in Brooklyn last Wednesday. The pictures below don't do the wedding weekend justice. Especially since I don't know how to import video into my collages, so you are missing out on our very impressive and equally embarrassing (on our part) maid's of honor speech. Think feathered fans, Rosemary Clooney and Vera-Ellen. Every detail from the flowers, to the venue, to the food, the amazing food, to the dance party were perfect. Best wishes Claire and Mike, love you guys so much and loved this weekend!

-Double dose of sweet potato. The OG and in soup form. 
-Turmeric Smoothie on repeat with these turmeric packets from Republic of Tea. Should I do a recipe post for this??
-Traveling with an 11 week old is not for the faint of heart.
-Farro salad with poached eggs and pesto from Five Leaves. Our group self-nominated it as the best restaurant in Brooklyn after each visiting guest made their way there to eat at some point over the weekend. 
-Most gorgeous bride!
-These two have set the wedding bar extremely high. 
-Snapshots from the best night ever.
-New York must: walk through central park. 
-Blocking the haters.
