For the first time since I was a teenager, I missed the Kentucky Derby this year. Yes, you read that correctly. Instead, the man and I took the long weekend to travel to New York and visit a girlfriend and her husband. Being Bryan's first visit to the Big Apple, we decided to stay ...
Dinner at Gemini Chicago
If you've been following along on my Instagram or Facebook, you'll know that while the man and I were in Chicago last week, we managed to eat our way silly! From brunch at Hashbrowns and Siena Tavern, afternoon tea at The Allis at Soho House, to family dinner Friday night at Carmine's, we're ...
Chicago Eats
Each Chicago trip, we make a point to branch out a bit, try a few places we've never been before. We test fun cocktails, visit the buzzed-about new hot spot. We do, however, have our standard, go-to resturants and bars that just lend the feeling of being at home. We hit the road ...
The Quirk Hotel

This week, I had the opportunity to travel to Richmond, Virginia with a group of almost 40 fine Realtors from my office. We went with the intention of attending an incredible event (which we did), and ...
Dinner at the Pump Room
It's rare that a meal solicits a vocal and emotional response from the man. Usually, he eats, carries on conversation with me about one thing or the other, and finishes his dinner. Last week, however, was the first time that food made his eyes open wide, made him have to pause for a minute to take ...
Going Public
Admittedly, I put way too much thought into where to stay while on vacation. There are a few bucket list overnights I'd eventually like to check off (the original Langham in London, Plaza Athenee in Paris, The Pearl in Rosemary Beach), and there are a few, "Oh, we always stay at..." (Cosmopolitan in ...
Doris Salcedo at the MCA
Almost every trip to Chicago- or any other city for that matter- I make an effort to take in something I can't get at home. Whether it's as simple as Chicago deep dish (now a tradition) or a production on Broadway, a visit to the Grand Canyon, or simply a sit-and-look of the Eiffel Tower (still on ...
Eating Chicago
You may recall that our last trip to Chicago, in February, birthed in me a desire to branch out and try new restaurants and bars. We stepped away from our usual spots and tried Pierrot Gourmet, Sienna Tavern, Wildberry Cafe, and The Berkshire Room.
This trip, though longer, still doesn't seem ...
Wildberry Cafe
If any of you are Facebook friends of mine, you're aware that at least two weekends out of every month, the guy and I check in at Toast on Market. As many fabulous brunches as there are in Louisville (Gralehaus, El Camino, Harvest, Ghyslain...) there is just something about Toast that makes us ...
