Local Spotlight: Koko x Forage Plants (Greyline Station)

December 13, 2020

Last week, I was able to check out Forage’s new space inside of Greyline Station, as well as their sister store, Koko.  Greyline Station is Lexington’s first public marketplace. You might remember driving by the old Greyhound building on the corner of Limestone and Loudon. It has sat vacant for more than 20 years. However, over the last couple of years, life has been revitalized into the building. Now, the first tenants of the Greyline Market are open for business.

Chunky Crockpot Loaded Potato Soup

December 10, 2020

I’m honestly not a huge fan of cooking with crockpots, but sometimes crockpots make things so much easier. Now that it is getting colder, it’s the perfect season for soups. One of my favorite soups to make is Loaded Potato Soup. I love it, because it’s indulgent and the ultimate comfort food. Besides how delicious it is, I love how you can let it cook for 6-8 hours and not worry about it. It’s super easy to make, because after you’ve prepped everything, you just follow the directions and put it in the crockpot and go about your day until…

May 16, 2020 marked four years since I launched Fabulous in Fayette! It seriously feels like yesterday I began this site to pay tribute to all the things I love in Lexington and Kentucky. I want to thank everyone who follows me and that enjoys my content. Every like, share, or comment really means a lot!

Fabulous In Fayette may have just turned four, but I’ve been blogging for eleven years. When starting Fabulous In…

Celebrate Cinco de Mayo With Beef Taco Bowls and Strawberry Margaritas

May 5, 2020

Since it’s Cinco de Mayo, and also Taco Tuesday, I figured I would share one of my favorite Mexican recipes that I make at home. My husband and I actually are going to have it again tonight. This is probably one of my top five favorite dishes that we have for dinner. I’m a huge fan of rice. Some people may think rice is boring, but it doesn’t have to be! One of my favorite parts of this dish, and what takes it to the next level, is the chimichurri. Without it, the dish would be kind of forgettable and…

Pasta in Vodka Sauce with Sausage

May 1, 2020

Pasta is the ultimate comfort food and I love it of all shapes and sizes. Pasta is one of those dishes that is so versatile. I don’t discriminate when it comes to pasta. Two of my favorite types of sauces are tomato based sauces like a marinara, an arrabbiata, or a vodka cream sauce. When it comes to cooking, I much prefer making my own sauces from scratch, instead of buying a jar from the grocery store shelves. Obviously, buying a jar will be a time saver compared to making your sauce. However, making your own sauce is so much…
