The most amazing product was sent to me….gLove Treat!!! It is a paraffin coconut and lavender oil treatment for your hands and feet created by Deanna Montrose!!! Deanna, a salon owner kept receiving requests from her clients for an easier and more effective way to soften hands and feet. All you do, is heat the glove or boot in the microwave for minutes and when the temperature is right you apply it to your hands or feet. There is no mess. It is easy and the results are fabulous. It’s is so great that The gLove Treat is on Oprah’s favorites list!!! I loved the glove now cannot wait to try the foot boot treat!!!!! For more information on either product or to order, click HERE.

This week’s Fashionable Friend Friday is the Charleston Grand Dame herself Patricia Altschul. You might recognize Patricia from the show Southern Charm. While in Charleston I got to see Patricia’s house and exchanged a few texts with this special lady. Fingers crossed we will be lucky enough to have her on the radio show in the Fall. Patrica stands for everything elegant and in good taste. She lives in the most beautifully renovated historic home in Charleston called the Issac Jenkins Mikel house where she sips her signature gin martinis in her elegant Caftans with her signature exotic Birkin bags.
I have been trying to like Gazpacho for so long. Every time I order it, it is a big let down. I love tomato soup but Gazpacho left a lot to be desired, until I perfected this easy recipe, that I first stumbled upon down south. Now I LOVE it….I make a huge bowl and keep it in my fridge. The secret ingredient in this cold soup is Bloody Mary Mix!!! It gives the Gazpacho just a little bit of kick to take it from drab to fab. Enjoy!!!!
Easy Bloody Mary Gazpacho
1 container Pomi chopped tomatoes (26.4 oz container)
2 cups finely chopped celery
2 cups finely chopped carrots
2 cups Bloody Mary Mix (I like Mr& Mrs T original)****
Stir ingredients together and chill before serving. YUMMMMMM!
**** If you like a spicier soup, you can add a bold and spicy mix.
One of the highlights to my trip to Charleston was The Sunday Gospel brunch at Halls Chophouse. I have been dying to go to a Gospel brunch for ages. I read that this one was the #1 brunch in the country so of course we had to check it out. It was amazing…I met the Plantation Singers, the renowned acapella 4th generation singing group!!!! I loved listening to them as they worked the room. And the food was incredible. If you have never been to a gospel brunch I highly recommend it. I have listed a few in the New York area, in case you are interested. Also, I included a video of the singer’s favorite song “This Little Light of Mine”….ENJOY!!!!
