Work From Home Snacks

Being home so much and working from home has actually made me like cooking less. I feel like I am always having to make food or clean up from the meal prior. From what I have seen on social media lately, most people are loving cooking and trying out recipes right now. For some reason…

My Favorite Coffee Shops in Chicago

One of the things I miss the most during these weird times is going to coffee shops throughout the week and on the weekends. I can make my own coffee at home, and I do, but I absolutely love trying new coffee shops to spice up the week. I love when coffee shops have signature…

Weekend in Austin, Texas

I’m back from another weekend adventure, so it’s time for the recap! I got Connor a trip to Austin, Texas for his birthday. I booked this so many months back, so it was fun to finally get to go! It was extra fun because some friends moved their between us booking the trip and actually…

Dallas For A Day

Connor and I took a quick trip to Dallas, TX the other weekend. I have been wanting to visit Dallas for a few months after seeing a snow cone shop I wanted to go to. We were able to find inexpensive tickets that had decent flight times, so we decided to go for it. We…

California Day 3: Exploring LA

The last California post is officially here! Day 3 was super fun but it was our last day there so we didn't have a ton of time to explore. We woke up around 8am, got ready, and checked out of the hotel. We were able to check in our bags after checking out though, which…

Hello!!

Hello everyone! I feel like most of my recent blog posts have started with something like "it has been so long since I lasted posted" or " I am going to be posting more consistently." It is kind of funny, but I really am going to get more posts up. The schedule was working well…

My Favorite Instagram Accounts

I have a bunch of favorite Instagram accounts that I love following along with. I…

My Juice Cleanse Experience

Last week I did a juice cleanse for the first time ever. I had never been interested in doing a juice cleanse. I prefer to chew my food and really don't care for juice in general. However, Connor got a free juice cleanse from work, so I decided it was worth a try. I ordered…

Thanksgiving in Indianapolis Part 2 (Just Saturday)

Back with part 2-- I felt like the post would be too long if I included Saturday, so splitting it up seemed like a good way to do it. I had a really nice Saturday with my family. I spent some time with my parents and sister, and then the afternoon with my sister and…

Here with a food post! I have tried a lot of different restaurants, coffee shops, and dessert places since moving to Chicago. I discovered a few favorites last summer that are still my favorites, but also some new places that I know I will keep going to many times. I have already been back to…
