Happy Friday and cheers to the weekend. This was another long but fulfilling week. From surviving the 2nd full week of school, media events, and being there for a friend in need. This week has been truly one for the week.
Friends are There in Times of Need
My best friend, Cheryl lost her grandma. Her grandma was truly an amazing woman. When I met her when I was 10 years old, Nanny Gray was just phenomenal. Although I was there to celebrate my friend, I have had a long relationship with so many of the family, it was good to see so many of them. It’s never a question no matter what level of friend I am to others, if you need me I am there. We dedicated our weekend to being there in any capacity we could offer. If it was nothing but holding her hand, enjoying each other’s company. Please continue to say a prayer to the entire Gray family.
Ancient Spirits and Grille
This has been a blogging week. This is the 5th consecutive day that I have blogged. Working on keeping that schedule as close as I possibly can. I took the last weekend on posting on social media due to attending the funeral. On Monday I attended the media event for Ancient Spirits and Grille. It was absolutely amazing in every way. From the good food, hospitality, tour, and amazing drinks, the ambiance is truly something to behold.
Happy First Day of Fall
Yes the season is upon us. I am aware that most won’t think that, but this is my favorite one. From comfort food, cooler weather, and fun activities to do outside like pumpkin patches, it’s a great time of the year. I made a full Fall Guide to get you nice and ready for Philadelphia events and beyond. This weekend we will be at Shady Brook Farm for their Fall Fest. Remember that with most of these events, tickets are timed. Anyone who knows me should know from here on out we will be known as the family that dresses up. So be on the lookout for that blog to come out next week.
Date Night at Tinto
I am still smiling at the good time I had a Tinto with Elle of Siponwhat. We had the most epic date night. From the bottle of wine, to the tapas, and the Paella. It was an amazing night of all of the goodness. If you have never been to Tinto by the Garces Group, you are in for a trip. Tinto is a wine bar. If you love wine as much as I do, stay and get the date night special, drink a glass of wine, and pack up some wine with you as they have a wine shop in the front. If you haven’t read the blog, read it. It was a great time to wear a dress and throw on some heels.
My Little Pony
Today (Friday) is the premiere of My Little Pony. It is out on Netflix. My girls especially my youngest can’t wait for this one. Today a the King of Prussia mall is a celebration and they are bringing out the purple carpet. The My Little Pony story continues as they have new adventures, and new characters, etc.
The unimaginable has happened…Equestria has lost its magic! Earth Ponies, Unicorns, and Pegasi are no longer friends and now live separated by species. But idealistic Earth Pony Sunny (Vanessa Hudgens) is determined to find a way to bring enchantment and unity back to their world. Teaming up with open-hearted Unicorn Izzy (Kimiko Glenn), the pair travel to faraway lands where they encounter the likes of charismatic and brave Pegasi Pipp (Sofia Carson)and Zipp (Liza Koshy) and the ever-responsible fellow Earth Pony Hitch (James Marsden). Their mission is full of misadventures, but these new best friends each possess their own unique and special gifts that may be just what this ponyverse needs to restore magic and prove that even little ponies can make a big difference.

Bristol Riverside Theatre
I hope this weekend will find you in good health and peace. My travels this weekend will have me at a Bristol Riverside Theatre for their production of Murder for Two? This will be my first time in the theatre since the pandemic. They were subsequently the last event I went before we were all shut down. All Covid-19 precautions are in full play. You must show proof of vaccination. Also all patrons must keep mask on the entire time. As always, I will either update a full blog on the weekend or early next week. This means this will be a heavy blog week. I love what I do. So have a great weekend. Stay safe.
Follow me on Instagram and follow my stories I like to update the local things to pay attention. There is a lot going down this weekend and it looks to be a good 70 degree weather to enjoy it. Happy Friday and cheers to the weekend.
