We here at Southern Flourish love a good blog written by a Southern gal. So, we’ve started a new blog of the week feature! This week we’re showcasing Megan of Pink to Green.
Megan is a budding foodie and my stomach routinely growls when reading her blog. I love, love, love bloggers that style and photograph their own meals!
Megan and I were also both OBSESSED with the Vogue photo shoot featuring Gweneth Paltrow.
For the sake of brevity I won’t gush on Pink to Green too much longer, but suffice to say that the photos from her Michigan vacation made me super jealous!
5 Questions for Megan
1) Where do you find inspiration for your blog?
My inspiration for Pink to Green comes from wanting to celebrate the good things in life– a gorgeous wedding, a tasty recipe, beautiful decor or a family photo are all inspirational. I vividly remember buying my first Vogue magazine 15 years ago and being smitten with the written word paired with stunning images– and still am! Much to the chagrin of my husband I have a collection of magazines that I keep for inspiration and binders with pages pulled from the years gone by. I also find endless inspiration from other bloggers and feel lucky to be part of such a great community!
2) How does Southern culture influence your blog?
No offense to my Midwest roots, but I have a love affair with southern living that has undoubtedly influenced my blog. (I’m equally enamored with antebellum architecture, mason jars, a friendly drawl and a ubiquitous biscuits) Living in and discovering Charlotte has given me a lot to blog about and I love uncovering the best this southern charmer has to offer!
3) What is your favorite place in the South to visit?
Charleston is my favorite place to visit in the south. Upon visiting for the first time, I realized I missed my calling—how did I not go to College of Charleston?! I would have been right at home pedaling a cruiser to class and then hitting the beach afterward! Charleston has endless charm, incredible history and an ideal waterfront local. Moreover, I would go back just for the food. One of my all-time favorite dining experiences was at McCrady’s in Charleston; the farm-to-fork menu is the best way to enjoy some of the best the south has to offer.
4) Favorite Southern tradition?
Mother nature provides my most treasured southern tradition. My favorite time of year is when the magnolia trees bloom in the south; I’m in heaven in the springtime. There are few things more enjoyable than taking a walk when the air is heavy with the scent of jasmine and magnolia.
5) 3 blogs you can’t live without?
- My friend Meg writes a blog, LeSueur Interiors, and I love to read her adventures staring her own business and amazing travels. Her southern charm is paired with international flair so I enviously take notes on her style!
- The Neo-Traditionalist is another of my favorite blogs not only because of the wealth of eye candy but because Katie so endears herself to her readers.
- I’m constantly looking forward to posts from Camilla’s blog, Style Notes, where she shares the inspiration behind being an event planner and passionate foodie
