As much as I will miss the daily sunshine, I am still excited for a season change. Fall in Seattle is the best and there's so much to look forward to in a brand new year in a few months as well. I know the rest of 2017 will probably fly by and I'm quite okay with it. I love new years and all the holidays leading up to it! In August, there were a lot of new food experiences so inevitably this will be a food-heavy post. Keep on reading to see what made the cut this month! Food Favorites -Next Level Burger: I'm a meat eater so the term plant-based is only something I know because of social media (lol). When I was invited to try this plant-based burger chain at their brand new Roosevelt Square location, I was skeptical. A lot of my blogger friends raved about it so I ended up feeling excited along with my skepticism. Guess what? It … [Read more...]
July Favorites (2017)
Happy weekend, y'all! Popping in to share a few of my July monthly favorites. Before I get started, I wanted to point out the new Seattle category in my sidebar. I write about Seattle a fair amount so I decided those posts needed an official category. While Seattle may be a travel destination for some of you, I'm reserving the travel category for places I myself travel to :) Food Favorites As you guys know, I love ice cream so celebrating National Ice Cream Month was a must. My friends at Snoqualmie Ice Cream hooked it up and I am set on ice cream for a while now! My recent favorite is their organic cookies and cream. It is hands down the best cookies and cream I've had. Really. I was also really lucky to receive a few boxes of My/Mo mochi ice cream this month. The strawberry and matcha ones were good, but surprisingly my favorite is cookies and cream again! You can now get My/Mo mochi ice cream at stores like Safeway and Whole Foods in Seattle. And yes, I was really extra and arranged my mochis on a cake stand. Now that I'm an adult I'm realizing there are many more opportunities to play with my food than I ever thought there would be. Not mad about it. Also, my dream of … [Read more...]
Life Lately: Events and a Few June Favorites
Happy Thursday!! I'm ecstatic that it's almost the weekend. After several busy weekends and being out of town I'm looking forward to one with little on the agenda. Since nothing too exciting should be happening this weekend, I figured I'd give you guys a life update from the past weeks. After all, I think you'd rather not hear about me going to Costco and doing all the adult things one must do after weeks of slacking. Visiting Molly Moon's HQ Anyone who knows me or just follows me on social media knows that I'm an ice cream lover. My favorite local Seattle ice cream shop, Molly Moon's, is so gracious to have invited me to their shop openings in the past. (I recapped the Redmond store opening here.) When they invited me to their newly designed headquarters in Capitol Hill to preview the new seasonal summer flavors, I was like DUH!!! Cocktails made with ice cream, delicious small bites, and tasting all the ice cream was just as fun as it sounds. There are some exciting and unique flavors coming involving ingredients like cheesecake and goat milk so get excited! As you can tell, the inside of the HQ space is gorgeous. Just ask Jared, I literally could not stop saying "it's so … [Read more...]
