Discovering health, wellness and the little things in Chicago.
Happy Thursday, friends! After Memorial Day this week and being gone from work for five whole days, I finally have gotten back in the swing of things. I woke up on Tuesday and was sending out emails that said "Happy Wednesday" if that can give you any inclination as to how my week began. You could say I'm ready for the weekend! But before we go into a new weekend, I thought I'd chat with you ...
Hello my garbanzo beans throughout Chicago (and beyond)! Happy Sunday to you, wherever you’re reading this from. Today I’m cracking down on what seems like the #1 post that everyone has been asking for but hasn’t received yet… until now. My favorite spots in Chicago to go to eat and drink.

Another Monday morning and I'm in bed drinking my usual go-to coffee, thinking about how I don't remember the last time I blogged on a Monday... but here I am. I'm usually heading to class at this time but since it's Easter break, I'm off today (from school, that is).

All of them I met through Instagram or my blog and we had connected over health, food and wellness. Isn't that magical how the internet can work magic like ...
My brother moved to Denver this past August and ever since I've been dying to find an excuse to come out here to visit him. Around November my mom suggested that I head up to see him right after Christmas and spend New Year's here. It's funny looking back on that because at first I was hesitant and now as I'm sitting in the airport waiting on my delayed flight... I can't imagine if the last week ...
Last week the weather was all things fall and I was drinking hot lattes every day at work. This week not so much. Iced coffee was more my scene as every day felt like it was close to 90º and any minute I could melt into the atmosphere. Thankfully this week it's supposed to get back into that sweater weather.
