Somewhere along the way, the place we couldn’t wait to get to became home. ❤️

And we still don’t take days like this for granted.

A pontoon, a beautiful day on the lake, my favorite person—and nowhere else we need to be.

Turns out, building a life you don’t need a vacation from is pretty awesome. 🚤☀️🌵

Give me the right wine and one perfect bite—

My roots in the kitchen are part family, part Food Network circa ‘93 lol

My favorite cook 📖 book? The Flavor Matrix.

So that salty, fatty, acidic, sweet ride across your palate?

I’m all in.

That’s exactly what Passport & Pairings delivers.

🥯 THE BAGEL BIN IS BACK, HAVASU!

They’re officially open in their beautiful new spot on Main Street—and yes, the bagels are still made fresh daily and the cream cheese is still house-made. 🙌

I stopped in for a chicken salad on a toasted sesame bagel, grabbed a window seat and did a little downtown people-watching.

10/10 way to spend lunch!

Who else is happy to have them back?! 🥯❤️

📍Bagel Bin is now right next to the Flying X in Downtown Lake Havasu.
