My First Trip to First Watch Fountain City

This past Friday, I had the fortunate pleasure of dining at First Watch, a restaurant that caters to breakfast, brunch (my favorite meal of the day!), and lunch. There are three First Watch restaurants in Knoxville and I visited the one in Fountain City. I was accompanied by my grandmother who put me on to this spot when she had visited with my cousin. We went around standard breakfast time and to sum up my experience, I have to say I had a wonderful time!

Unfortunately, I didn't take any photos of the building's interiors or exteriors but I did get some snaps of our delicious meals. 

A glimpse of the menu. As you can see, there are plenty of options of egg lovers! 
My grandma ordered the The Traditional which, is a generous plate sized serving of eggs (any style), artisan toast, potatoes, and your choice of sausage or bacon.
I ordered the Lemon Ricotta Pancakes with a side of bacon and guys, these pancakes were heaven! I loved how the ricotta wasn't too tangy and had the just the right amount of creaminess. The strawberries and powdered sugar also gave some nice flavor. The bacon was cooked exactly to my liking - cripsy, smoky, and not too salty.

We both decided to save the rest of our meals for later. Bring home the bacon!

All in all, I really enjoyed First Watch. The atmosphere was great, staff and servers were so friendly and helpful, and the food was delicious. I will definitely add this place on my list of morning must visits!

The Art of Jon Whitcomb

I discovered Jon Whitcomb's illustrations through Pinterest when I was looking for vintage art. I fell in love with his attention to feminine beauty and how every woman he painted exudes elegance and charm. I also appreciate how the men he painted were equally as beautiful, complimenting their lady partners. As the holidays began approaching, I was curious if there were any art books dedicated exclusively to his works and I was excited to discover that The Illustrated Press had produced The Art of Jon Whitcomb last year. I did get a little discouraged because the book is sold out mostly everywhere and Amazon is selling it double the price. Fortunately, I discovered Dream Haven Books which is an independent bookshop and I was so excited to find they had it at a great price. It's a truly glorious book and if you like this style of art, I'd recommend buying this if you can find it!  The women in his art usually have large, sensual eyes, plump glossy lips, and gr

Mini Review | Godiva's White Chocolate and Strawberry "Cupcake"

Hello everyone! Today I'm reviewing one of the most delicious pieces of chocolate I've ever eaten and it's a a white chocolate and strawberry cupcake inspired candy. From the Godiva website - " The strawberry coulis with white chocolate mousse, bursts with the sweet and tart flavors of strawberries mixed with the light and airy fluffiness of the creamy mousse bringing an indulgent experience to your pallet. Decorated with pink strawberry sprinkles." I love how creamy and sweet the mousse is and it pairs very well with the little white chocolate cup. When you bite into the cupcake, you can taste the strawberry ganache which is so good. I will definitely try and buy more since they'll likely be around till Valentine's Day. If you like white chocolate and strawberry flavored foods then I would definitely recommend this little goodie!

Mini Review | Loungefly Marie Macaron Cosmetic Bag

I stopped by my local BoxLunch store and picked up this cute little Marie themed cosmetic bag by Loungefly. As a Disney fan and francophile, The Aristocats is one of my favorite childhood films and it's hard sometimes resisting all the cute merchandise...especially when it's pink! The outside pouch is clear with a small image of Marie peeking out of a cute pink tea cup. Inside is a smaller pouch that's pink with little Marie's and macrons all over. The design is adorable and the pouches offer versatile uses that will come in handy for me especially since I'm always carrying makeup and toiletries with me. It's a BoxLunch exclusive item I believe so you can only buy it from one of their physical stores or their online shop. It retails for $29.99. *I was not paid for this review. Just wanted to showcase this lovely item. Thanks for reading!
