Today you’ll hear from my first Michigan (the Mitten State!) guest, Alicia Wright. We cover a lot of topics in this episode—from mud water and allergen-free chocolate chip cookies, and Alicia’s favorite spots in Holland, to her motivation behind becoming a boutique vacation rental owner in Gulf Shores Alabama, to the Venezuelan arepa recipe her dad brought with him when he came to America with just a suitcase and his guitar.

If you've been thinking about vacationing to Gulf Shores, you’re in for a treat because Alicia surprises us with a discount code to both of her Alabama properties. So, while you’re listening, check out her properties at bluepalmgetaways.com, and get the recipes, links and photos from this episode on randomsweets.com.
