We finally made it out to Phoenix, Arizona, and thank goodness we had some of the best guides in the biz. Local favorite, @tales_of_the_cocktail Top 4 US Bartender of the Year 2025 Libby Lingua gave us the insider scoop, and now the only question is: when are you heading to Phoenix?
October is Pit Bull Awareness Month! These two love bugs came into my life VERY unexpectedly…both on the run, in the streets, and most likely on the escape from danger and neglect. The universe brought them to me and I wouldn’t change it for the world. Contrary to the stigma, these dogs are incredibly loyal & loving family dogs, and just want to be treated like every other animal should. Aggressiveness is not a breed trait!!! Pit bulls are often misunderstood and spend more time in shelters than any other breed because of that harmful stigma. Every pit bull pup deserves a chance to show their true, gentle nature. Thank you to the pit bull parents in my local community helping change the narrative one rescue or foster at a time 🙏🏼💪🏼 @julesxxo@imjustkat@chelseygillespie22@austinabril and to organizations like @standupforpitsfoundation and @desertdogproject and the countless others saving these pups from euthanasia 🐾💙 #PitBullAwarenessMonth #EndTheStigma #landhippo #staffordshire #pitbulls
