Discovering health, wellness and the little things in Chicago.
While most people are spending hours online with Black Friday deals, I'm busy deleting every single email in my inbox promoting the sales and spending time with my family. Last night instead of going to sleep thinking of waking up at 6a.m. to go to the mall, I thought of how grateful I was to be laying in the comfiest bed with a thick Pottery Barn comforter around me. These are things so many ...
When I first met my fellow blogger bud, May, we hit it off immediately. Although a couple of years older than me, we found so much in common through our few weekend hangs at the end of August. As our schedules got a bit heavy once fall hit, we haven't had much time to connect in the past two months until this past Sunday. Thankfully, we got back together in the best way we know how: ...

I spent this day preparing for my upcoming internship, walking from The Loop to Gold Coast (resulting in spending the majority of my bank account on Lululemon and Athleta apparel) and deciding on smoked salmon and toast for dinner. This ...
Whenever my dad comes to town, his visit turns into a three-day packed adventure of eating at all of my favorite spots in the city. Places I never get the opportunity to go to due to transportation limitations or money availability (hate to admit it but it's true).
