I know you should never judge a book by its cover, and the same should be said for restaurants. That said, I’m guilty of both. So it came as no surprise that when the opportunity to try Slurping Turtle came my way, I couldn’t say no. The name, the logo…how could I resist? Slurping Turtle […]

Japonais
Thank you all for the input on my restaurant week post! Last night’s meal at Japonais was great. My friend Lauren was my dinner buddy for the evening. After checking out the poll for the appetizers, it looked as though the Crispy Shrimp & Salmon Maki or the Lobster Rolls (I’m looking at you, Erica!) […]
Bobby’s Chobani Taste Test {Video + Giveaway}
Before we get to the goods, I will allow you all the chance to peek inside our closet. Yes, I know. Try not to get too excited about this fantastic opportunity. 😉 It’s the subject of today’s #FebPhotoADay. Space is at a premium, so we split it 50/50. As you can see, Bobby’s wardrobe is […]

Unfortunately, the dim lighting left […]
I Am Mellow.
On Tuesday I was given the opportunity to participate in a tasting of Starbucks new Blonde Roast coffee. As a Starbucks fan, in addition to being one who never shies away from a cup o’ joe, I happily made my way to the location on Oak and Rush with Jill to see what all the […]
My Seven Links To Start August Off Right
I have to admit — I’ve been feeling a bit out of the loop in the food blog world lately. I know “life happens” — and it happens fast — but there are days where I wonder where the past seven months have gone. Seriously. How can it be August already? It’s for this reason […]
