This June Minneapolis welcomed a new face onto the dining scene, The Lynhall. The Lyndale Street establishment pairs a tasteful interior with a coffee bar, lunch/dinner menu, and an actual bar come happy hour time. The space also features a private dining area that is available for rent, an outdoor patio, and an incubator kitchen. A […]
I understand the snow and bone chilling cold are par for the course in the tundra but I have officially gone stir crazy. After bugging everyone around me for entertainment, I figured I had better settle in and find a few ways to distract myself. Otherwise I will continue to whine about this subzero hellhole […]
There’s nothing better than a long weekend and NOTHING worse than going back to the real world afterwards. Throw in a visitor, sweltering temperatures, a Gopher football game, and the state fair; makes it one for the books. Big fans… #GoSportsA day exploring Red Wing. Of course a day spent at the fair. We ate: corn, mini donuts, meatloaf on […]
I will be the first to admit I NEVER would have guessed that Minnesotans would be “trendy” and I say that as a MN native!

A few snaps from my week home in Minnesota; filled with family, friends, and of course feasting. All my people in a turkey coma post our feast (we missed you Emmy)! See you in three weeks Minnie! xxxo

I am headed home to Minnesota today for a long weekend of bbq’s, paddle boarding at the lake, and of course a visit to the State Fair. I can’t wait to try this years newest concoctions and of course the people watching. Cheers to […]
I spent a very white Christmas at home in Minnesota and it was perfect. Filled with family, friends, food and down jackets. I forget however what winter feels like until I step off that plane and am hit with those indescribable sub-zero temperatures. Minnesotans are truly hardy stock (and I seem to have lost ALL […]
/ via / Bags packed and presents wrapped, it’s time to head home to the tundra for the holidays! Have a wonderful weekend! xxxo
San Francisco has no snow. This is not new news. However it makes heading home for the holidays to Minnesota (a perfectly frigid snow globe this time of year) much-anticipated! Having not lived in the arctic for more than 8 years, I have lost my “Minnesota tough-ness”. Preparation for re-entry: Checking the weather…and packing as many […]
