Happy Friday to you! A little re-cap today of my time in Miami Florida last weekend for BlogHer Food Conference 🙂
It’s always a treat going to the annual BlogHerFood Conference. It’s in a different city every year and this year…..Miami Florida! I went with CliqueMe and hosted a couple parties with Amanda. Here’s my morning view. Heavenly!!
I arrived Thursday night and we had our first party at 8:30pm. It was pouring in Miami, but that didn’t stop us, lol! We had our friends shuttled over to our penthouse for a sushi and ice cream party. Good times and good ice cream 🙂
Friday morning we decided to go to brunch at Morgan’s Restaurant. Probably one of my favorites during my stay in Miami. The french toast was unbelievable! Photo left: Me, Lauren, Barbara, Summer, Amanda and Sandy.
Friday night was the night of party hopping! Amanda and I started with a Pillsbury meet up then went to visit McCormick and ended up with Stitch Fix. Great night and gorgeous South Beach Sunset 🙂
Saturday was our 2nd party “Lunch and Pampering” by CliqueMe and Tastespotting. Amanda and I had so much fun hosting! We served Cuban sandwiches, salad, cupcakes and 2 ladies giving massages to the guests. It was a beautiful sunny day.

After our party it was time to do a little bakery hopping around Miami! We stopped at Sweetness Bakery Shop for some sweet treats. Lauren caught this photo of us doing what we do best 🙂
Up next was Janette and Co Macaron and French Pastries. Their macarons were so vibrant and beyond delicious. We enjoyed every little bite sampled!
Saturday night, closing party time! Here are my roomies and I all dressed up for one more night in Miami.

After the closing party we ordered some hot fresh out of the oven chocolate chip cookies from Morgans! We had some of our girlfriends over and ate cookies. Perfect Saturday night, haha!!
We had a lovely brunch Sunday morning at Michael’s Genuine Food and Drink. These Homemade Peaches and Cream Pop Tarts were fabulous!
One quick stop to South Beach. Talk about gorgeous turquoise waters! Had so much fun with all of my friends. Until next time!! Left: Amanda, me, Barbara, Deborah, Amanda, me, Lauren 🙂
Have a great holiday weekend friends! See you Tuesday with a new recipe!
I love reading everyones recaps of Blogher food. So many great experiences! Was great to see you again! All the best to you till we meet again! 🙂 xox Sheila
I am so excited that you went to Michael’s Genuine. I finally had the chance to go a few months ago after wanting to go for the last couple of years. When you live locally and you have kids, time away for an amazing meal simply isn’t possible. You hope for the chance and I finally snagged it. Sweetness is pretty amazing also! I hope you had an amazing trip and I guess I have to add Janette&Co to my list. Argh!
We had so much fun at Michael’s!! Loved the small plates that you could share with the table. Yes, get to Janette&Co! So good!!
I am SO glad that we were finally able to meet face to face after all this time!! It was fun getting to hang out with you and can’t wait to do it again!
Sooooo good to finally meet you in person as well Deborah!! See you in a few weeks!!
It was so great to meet you Jenny! Your penthouse had the best view. And some day I want to go shoe shopping with you, ha. Those red ones were fabulous!
Thank you Dorothy! So good meeting you, we need to have more chit chat time next time! ….and I’ll go shopping with you anytime 🙂
Looks like such a fun trip Jenny!!
It looks like it was a blast! I hope I can go next year!
The shoes you have on with the white dress are fabulous!!! Can you tell me where you found them?
Hi Sara, I found them on ModCloth.com last year. They are from Seychelles. I’ve tried finding them online and can’t hunt them down anymore.
Thanks for sharing Jenny, I found the shoes @ 6pm.com, they are on their way!! I would have got the leopard too but they are out of my size.
No way!! Thanks for letting me know!!
Looks like a fabulous time! Love all of the photos!
HA! I love that you got Harrison in on the food photography action! 🙂 Fun seeing you for just a bit last weekend. I’m totally joining y’all for bakery hopping next time! xoxo
What an awesome looking weekend! I wish I was there!!
What a fun time! So jelly I missed this year!
Wow…shuttles and penthouses…you sure are livin’ the life!
LOVED staying updated with all of the posts and instagrams. SO much fun!!
Aw, such fun! And how do you not look a day older that you did in BHF Atlanta. Was that 2011? Oh dear. Time flies!

It looks so fun! I’ve got to figure out a way to get there next year to meet all of you beautiful ladies! Plus, I’ve never been to Miami. Looks gorgeous.
Have a grand weekend Jenny! 🙂
