Bryan and I just got back from our annual trip to Southern California, and this year, we called it a honeymoon. It was a little scary, the first day or two, south of the Angeles forest, seeing the wildfires there, and waking up to the snow cover of ash on our car and patio furniture, but we were ...
Palm Springs
After a few sunny days in Sierra Madre, California with some friends of ours, Bryan and I headed East to sunny and fabulous Palm Springs. Last year's trip to this little oasis was so good- we met some sweet local business owners, hiked around Mount San Jacinto, and spent so much time next to the ...
Time Away, Joshua Tree, and a Reset
I can't believe almost 4 weeks have passed since I last posted...
I'm not the first gal with a blog to admit that sometimes, it's difficult to come up with new content. I'm not a "mommy blogger" that can post photos of my kids, and I'm not constantly trying on new outfits to peddle to the ...
Vegas Musings
As we have every summer for several years now, we found ourselves in Las Vegas in the middle of summer for the man's work. We're both fortunate to have careers that bring us in contact with folks from all different backgrounds, and- in his case- it's neat that sometimes "work" means standing ...
Dinner at Walton Street
A couple of years ago, while in Chicago in the Spring, we managed to get ourselves squeezed into Gemini in Lincoln Park for dinner at their grand reopening, and immediately fell in love. The service and atmosphere were amazing, but consistently outdone by the amazing food. When we got wind that ...
Lunch at Willow Room
Just a block above North Avenue in Chicago's Lincoln Park lies a neat and unassuming yellow brick building. Crisp, black trim circles the first floor facade, and minimal window dressing reads, "Willow Rm" in a slight gold script. This is Willow Room, a happy eatery I've been stalking on Instagram ...
Touring Bourbon
I'm a creature of habit, of tradition. There's post-Derby Sunday brunch, always heading to Chicago over the 4th of July weekend, Italian Creme Cake at the holidays. It's as if- over the years- I've created so many "always" in my life that there was no room for anything new or different. If I ...
Terzo Piano
We've become an old, married couple.
There. I've said it.
Keep in mind that the Mister and I aren't married. Nor are we old. Well.... not that old, at least. We're closer to social security than sorority parties, sure, but we can still hang. If we aren't listening to Yo-Yo Ma on Sunday ...
Makeready L&L
There's nothing more convenient when one is traveling than finding sleep in a hotel that houses a fantastic restaurant. From knowing that midnight dessert is just a phone call away to the convenience of running a few floors down for dinner in a snowstorm, hotel eateries are where it's at, in this ...
