Sometimes life gives you a moment so full circle it makes you stop and breathe it all in. A few weeks ago, I sat on the Grand Hotel porch - the longest in the world- racking in a white chair, listening to the clip clap of horses, and soaking in the beauty of Mackinac Island, a porch that has a long lived on my bucket list And now… I’m honored to be a winner of the official Mackinac Island cookbook, and as part of that, I’ll be sharing monthly recipe, post inspired by the islands flavors, memories, and magic. This win is deeply tied to the heart behind my novel, “UnMasked.” One of the main characters, Jen Blake, is a fierce Warrior Mom, who has the bucket list item of staying at the Grand Hotel, and rocking, quietly on the longest porch in the world. And while UnMasked is fiction, so much of Jen’s dreams mirror my own. (I love reliving my recent trip to “the island.”) So yes, this cookbook is about recipes… But for me, it’s also about healing, storytelling and celebrating where we’ve been and how far we’ve come. A special thank you to the Addicted to Mackinac Island Facebook Group for introducing me to this contest into all the other island lovers who make that community so warm and welcoming. First recipe post coming soon!

In honor of the Grand Hotel’s 138th birthday, we had the privilege of framing a carpet square directly from the hotel! Mackinac Island’s Grand Hotel is the perfect summer retreat, bringing old-world hospitality and charm to Michigan for 138 years! This carpet square designed by Dorothy Draper & Co. has become an iconic piece of the hotel. After being carefully cleaned and cared for, this piece of history became a statement piece for a new home! Using an elegant Larson Juhl frame and fillet, allowed us to turn this stunning carpet into a framed masterpiece! Stay tuned to see how this piece makes its way back to Mackinac Island! #mainstreetart #customframing #fineart #framing #mackinacisland #grandhotel #mackinac #mackinacisle #grandhotelmichigan
