Celebrated 10 years married (last week) in Napa an Celebrated 10 years married (last week) in Napa and Sonoma🍷🥂 I’m so thankful for the time we were able to spend together and all the special times we’ve had the last decade.

Our first vacation together was to Napa Valley while were dating back in 2013. Then we got married in Napa in 2014. And the rest is history I guess! This is a very special place to us that has many memories tied to it🍷🍇 

Looking forward to see what the next 10 years has in store! Love doing life with you @alexgrivna 🥰😘
These fall sunrises have been something else 😍🍁🍂

Crostini with Ricotta and Mango

Crostini with Ricotta and Mango

Ricotta and mango crostini is the easiest and one of the most delicious appetizers you can make. It’s so simple and requires only a few ingredients (most of which are pantry staples). These crostini bites are a crowd pleaser for even the pickiest of eaters. They are both savory and sweet, and it’s the perfect starter before dinner. I’d recommend pairing with a crisp, mineral Chardonnay from Burgundy. Cheers!
