Discovering health, wellness and the little things in Chicago.
Despite having been to TownHall a little over a week ago on a Saturday, I knew I had to come in again to try their new Vegan Night menu (which is only available on Mondays). I noticed the menu on Instagram two weeks ago and some of the featured items include the Cool Garbanzo Bean Salad Sandwich ($9) and the Spirulina Pistachio Pesto and Brown Rice Penne ($9).

First things first, I love diners. I mean, who doesn't? Milkshakes, burgers, fries. The whole retro feel with spinning chairs at the bar and waitresses wearing cute pink aprons. We love it all.

On Thursday we went into Ann Arbor for the first time and grabbed lunch at the ...
I was pretty bummed my friends were out of town this weekend to celebrate the festivities of the 4th but thankfully a ticket to the Cleveland Indians vs. Kansas City Royals game Friday night came to my rescue. My dad took my aunt and I to the game and unfortunately, they were demolished 7 to 1 but it is always a good experience going to a game in the summer. Even if you're sitting extremely high ...
