I’ve had a special affinity for Aphrodite after spending a Fulbright year on Cyprus, the legendary birthplace of the goddess of love and beauty. It’s hard to overstate the cultural importance of Aphrodite on the island. The Cyprus Tourism Board even has an Aphrodite Cultural Route, and I’m happy to report I’ve been to every stop. I highly suggest it when planning your next trip to Cyprus!
Today’s Thirsty Thursday is going to be a bit different than previous Thirsty Thursdays. This time I’ve created a seltzer cocktail to pair specifically with a book I’m reviewing. I’m really excited for this one!! Today, I will be reviewing Jasmine Guillory’s The Wedding Party, the third in the Wedding Date
Today, I'm review All the Missing Girls by Megan Miranda paired with AHA Blueberry + Pomegranate Sparkling Water. I read this book to participate in my mom's book club. Since I've been at home with my mom during quarantine, I've been able to participate more (via Zoom)! I wouldn't normally read a book like this.

Today was A LOT! By the end of the day, we NEEDED a cocktail, so fortunately it was Thirsty Thursday! Last night, I was binding the hand-quilted baby blanket I’ve been making for the past few weeks on my sister Mackenzie’s sewing machine, and I broke it! Mainly, it broke itself, but I was certainly Read
Tonight, I’m reviewing The Witch Boy by Molly Knox Ostertag and pairing it with an AHA Apple + Ginger sparkling water. The Witch Boy is a Middle Grades graphic novel published in 2017. It is the first book in The Witch Boy Series, which is followed up by The Hidden Witch and The Midwinter Witch. This book popped up on my radar a few weeks ago while perusing Goodreads, and the cover art really struck me. I wanted to know more about this boy and the shadowy monster encircling
It’s Thirsty Thursday! Time for a delicious seltzer cocktail. Yesterday, I tested all the AHA seltzer’s with my mom, my sister, and my sister’s friend Alyssa. We had a blast sipping seltzers, ranking them (article coming soon!), and coming up with Thirsty Thursday cocktail recipes. First up is the crisp, delicious AHA Peach + Honey
