Pizza Party & Something Sweet

So I've got to get better at taking photos because words are sweeter with pictures! I've recently began an internship with Weddings In Style Magazine and this past Saturday was my second event with them, the Louisiana Cares for Kids Gala at the Louisiana Children's Museum. Jacie and my friend Charel's step-daughter Alexis modeled flower girl dresses for us and handed out truffles from Bittersweet Confections at the red carpet entrance to the event. They were so beautiful and had such a great time. After the red carpet, we were able to stay and enjoy the event. There were catered food stations by New Orleans restaurants: Domenica's lasagna and Maximo's crawfish pasta, and also crawfish corn soup and strawberry crepes. The best part was getting to play on all the fun stuff, especially the grocery store and the bubbles!











After we left, we had promised the girls a pizza date so we went to Reginellis on Magazine Street. It's one of our favorites and Alexis had never tried it before so we had to go! We all loved it (us as usual and Alexis thought it was great). For the best New Orleans pizza, visit one of Reginelli's four NOLA locations. They have a great menu and we've loved everything we've ever tried there. The pizza is the perfect combination of a robust sauce, cheese, and crispy crust... and any toppings you might desire.



Sometimes you just can't fight the urge for something sweet so we couldn't end our dinner date with the girls without dessert! One of our favorite stops is Sucre on Magazine! They have a variety of gelato flavors and amazing gourmet chocolates, cakes and pastries. It was the perfect end to a perfect night!
