Earlier this summer, I got to revisit some friends and former foodie favorites in my most recent "home" of Milwaukee, Wisconsin. When returning to an old habitat, it always amazes me how much a city can change within a matter of months (note: I moved in January). I experience this same feeling each time I … Continue reading Char’d – A Charming Addition to MKE’s Third Ward
Like I had mentioned in my recent post about moving to Connecticut, I am thoroughly impressed by the amount of good, ethnic cuisine found within the state. For instance, in the most nondescript plaza in West Hartford one can find Shu Restaurant serving up very authentic Sichuan cuisine in an ever-so-classic Chinese restaurant setting. We … Continue reading Shu Shu Baby
If you have an Instagram account, you probably know someone or follow someone who has traveled to Iceland in the past year (myself included). And when you see said people on the 'gram post about Iceland, I'm sure your first thought is: "WOW, that's beautiful!" Followed up by your second thought: "Is it really all … Continue reading Iceland: Where Reality Meets Your Dreams
Now that the dust has settled off from my move cross-country, it’s about time I posted about said move and my new home (apologies for the two-month writing drought). Earlier this year I moved to West Hartford, CT for work, and while I didn’t know much about the area or the Pioneer Valley, I knew … Continue reading New Beginnings in New England

The move came out of the blue with a job offer I couldn't pass up, and I've always wanted to live on the East Coast so here I am in Hartford, CT. While I'm excited to start exploring all … Continue reading Best of MELwaukee
Yes, I know, the title of this post is deceiving. There was really no love-hate relationship with Stockholm (and we weren't taken hostage either). It was actually all love. All love for the city of Stockholm. Even during the winter. Even without a set itinerary. The question we got asked most frequently leading up to … Continue reading Stockholm Syndrome
The only real thing I like about baseball is ... the food (JK! I actually really enjoy the game of baseball, but the food is certainly a highlight in the game-day experience for me). I believe stadium hot dogs should be their own food category on that pyramid they show you in kindergarten, and whoever … Continue reading Major League Food

There is a special place in my heart (and stomach) for tacos. The tortilla shells filled to the brim with flavor-packed meats, veggies, spices & other accoutrements are never dull and deserve their own place in the food pyramid. My favorite type of taco is a Mexican street style where the protein does all the … Continue reading Let’s Give Them Somethin’ to Taco ’bout
"Party in the city where the heat is on. All night, on the beach 'til the break of dawn. Welcome to Miami ... Bienvenidos a Miami." - Will Smith Okay so maybe Miami is kind of, sort of like the Will Smith song in real life. Either way, it is a welcome vacation when you … Continue reading Weekend Getaway: 48 Hours in Miami
