We are such foodies that when we go on vacation our whole trip usually revolves around where we are going to eat. Yes we map out and plan every meal so we can enjoy the best foods an area has to offer. It is not very often that we just wing it for meals but this time we are definitely glad that we did. We happened to see Big River Pizza as we were driving by on the way back to ...

The Rabbit Hole, Minneapolis MN
Falling down the rabbit hole is definitely a good description for what it feels like to walk through the doors of The Rabbit Hole restaurant. It is a bit dark but still friendly and there is a wonderful aroma from the Gyopo Korean cuisine. The servers station has an archway made of books above it and there is definitely an Alice in Wonderland feel to some of the aspects in this ...
Surly Brewing Co. Beer Hall and Restaurant, Minneapolis MN
As we follow our GPS deeper into what looks like a very industrial area with warehouses and somewhat dilapidated roads and old buildings, we cross a set of railroad tracks and there it is. A beautifully built and very modern looking place with a giant rhino of rebar and concrete to greet you. This modern architectural beauty shines like a black star amongst the rest of the ...
Bell Museum of Natural History – Minneapolis, Minnesota
We're visiting the twin cities this week, we're staying at the Hyatt Place in Downtown Saint Paul, and it's amazing, we booked the room for a steal on Expedia. and our very first stop was the Bell Museum of Natural History in Minneapolis, Minnesota. First of all, this museum is right in the middle of the University of Michigan campus, actually it's a part of the campus, as in, ...
Mac and Cheese Wontons

All opinions are mine alone. #AD #Tailgreatness #CollectiveBias We're the best at coming up with food combinations that are completely ridiculous. I believe that wonton and egg roll wrappers are an open invitation to stuff with whatever epic food you can think of. Scramble some eggs and stuff ...
Gilmore Girls DIY Binge Watch Party Ideas
We're a little over a month out from finding out the actual last line that Lorelai Gilmore was always destined to say. As we count down the days until Gilmore Girls: A Year In The Life the hype is getting real.

Mr. Brews Taphouse, Menomonee Falls Wisconsin
Driving through this area on our weekly errand runs we noticed Mr. Brews Taphouse in a very unlikely spot. Right between the Wisconsin Athletic Center and Froedtert Orthopaedic Sports and Spine Center is a taphouse with great burgers! We noticed this spot and said next time we come down we will have to try it out and it was definitely worth it. They have 60 beers to choose ...
A book series for every young scientist. Science Wide Open
Science was always the subject in school I dreaded the most, ok second most, I'm looking at you math.. Now that I'm all grown up, I wish I had realized that science is actually ridiculously awesome. I'm actually in a Geology course right now and it's a whole lot of fun, a lot of work, but it's so worth it. I might even be procrastinating on my homework to write this article, so ...

We're serious about football games around here, and we always end up hosting games at least a few times a year. So I thought I would create some fun ...
Girls Night Out at Arte Wine & Painting Studio – Wauwatosa, Wisconsin
Last night we had a bit of a girls night out at Arte Wine & Painting Studio tucked into an adorable area of Wauwatosa, which is basically Milwaukee. It was so much fun, I was extremely nervous, because the picture we were painting included an intricate bike, and I'm terrible at those step-by-step drawing books that I always tried back in the day, so I wasn't too confident ...
Happy birthday Gilmore Girls! AKA The day that Luke’s Diner took over the world.

Oh, and I'm officially a part of the Netflix #StreamTeam for a 4th year, and I'm really super excited, all opinions are my own I'm really just a crazy fan of almost everything Netflix. After I found out about the Luke's takeover, I immediately mapped out all ...
Pumpkin Beer Season
I am a known beer snob but I am also a pumpkin pie snob as well, it is one of my all time favorite seasonal treats but I hate most of them if that makes sense. I love pumpkin pie but only the pumpkin pie that my mom and I make because we reduce the cinnamon in the recipe. All pumpkin pie recipes call for pumpkin pie spice and cinnamon which in my opinion is way too much ...
