✨ The 80s came alive in the Las Vegas Arts District as pop icon Tiffany and celebrity chef Alicia Shevetone celebrated the launch of Pop Life: The Ultimate 80s Kitchen Encore at Petite Bohème.

More than a cookbook, Pop Life is a celebration of music, nostalgia, friendship, flavor, and reinvention — blending iconic 80s culture with modern culinary creativity. Guests stepped into an immersive evening filled with signature bites, retro-inspired energy, storytelling, and the unmistakable soundtrack of a generation. 🎶✨

Fresh off the renewed popularity of I Think We’re Alone Now through Netflix’s Stranger Things, Tiffany reflected on the cultural revival of the 1980s and the inspiration behind the book.

“There was something magical about the 80s,” Tiffany shared. “And now people are craving that again.”

From Tiffany’s deeply personal “All This Thyme” sausage roll to Chef Alicia’s elevated takes on nostalgic comfort food, Pop Life transforms familiar memories into modern experiences designed to bring people together around the table.

The evening proved that the spirit of the 80s never disappeared — it simply evolved for a new generation.

📍 Las Vegas Arts District
📖 Pop Life: The Ultimate 80s Kitchen Encore is now available for preorder through major retailers including Amazon.

A fairytale town in north west France, Fougeres is over 1000 years old and home to the largest medieval fortress in Europe.
Shares about it.

The town’s past feels like it’s been plucked straight from a book filled with magical stories and beautiful pictures. The castle was built in the 12th century and withstood sieges, wars and most importantly, the passage of time. Its walls and towers whisper myths and legends from the past, protecting Brittany from French incursions.

Today, the town retains much of its historic charm, with cobbled streets weaving through half timbered buildings, creperies and quaint boutique stores. Visitors can explore the castle’s walls and enjoy beautiful views over the town itself.

Just 45 minutes from Le Mont Saint Michel, this fairytale town is not to be missed 🏰
