Last night's Queen's Ball at Chateau des Fleurs was seriously magical! 💫💃🏻 Chateau des Fleurs

Stepping into the Gold and Platinum Ballroom felt like walking onto the set of Bridgerton, and made this theater kid live her best life. 👌

There's something exciting about donning a period costume that instantly transports you to another era. ✨The location itself was stunning, providing the perfect backdrop for an evening of elegance.

🎶 From the live music by the Orchestra to the ballet performance, every detail contributed to the immersive experience. 🩰 Learning Regency dance steps was also so much fun (thank you for being my partner Monica Wenger!) and then dining with the Queen added an extra layer of authenticity to the night. 👑

For those who missed out, don't worry - Chateau des Fleurs offers a taste of this refined atmosphere every Wednesday with their afternoon tea service. It's a perfect midweek escape for when you need a touch of elegance in your routine. 🫖💐 (Visit their website for details!)

All in all, the Queen's Ball was a unique and enchanting event that brought a bit of Regency charm to Boise. It was a night to remember, filled with music, dance, and a dash of time travel. 😉

🍓🥭 Nekter: Where guilt-free meets delicious! 🥝🍌

I recently popped into ‘s new Boise spot for a post-meeting pick-me-up and let me tell you, their acai bowls are particularly noteworthy! 🥣 🥭🍌 Packed with fresh fruits and superfoods, they're the perfect blend of delicious and nutritious.

Everything's made to order, so you know it's fresh. No sneaky additives or hidden nasties - just pure, clean, wholesome ingredients. 💯
