I watched the river go green from the penthouse ballroom @RoyalSonestaChicago. FABULOUS views 👀 and Fantastic buffet. 😋

History: This is the 63rd year of the Chicago River Dyeing (which began in 1962) thanks to the Chicago Plumbers Union. Chicago St. Patty’s Day tradition.

Spring cleaning is near and dear to me! I spring clean my phone too. 😂 As I was going through photos I was reminiscing over the Chef’s I’ve interviewed over the years and prompted me to look over the various cookbooks I’ve gathered. My goal is to cook more at home and I have so many inspiring recipes to start with. What’s your go to easy dish? 😋 Happy Spring Cleaning!
