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
This shop has been compensated by Collective Bias, Inc. and its advertiser. 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. The Luke's Diner pop up shops were absolutely amazing, and it really brought fans together not only in coffee shops, but also on the interwebs. Going home and reading ...
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 ...
Simple DIY football centerpiece
This shop has been compensated by Collective Bias, Inc. and its advertiser, MARS. All opinions are mine alone. #ScoreAtCVS #CollectiveBias It's Fall which means it's time for everything pumpkin, leaves falling, and football. 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.
So this morning has been a heck of a morning, I first found out that Luke's Diners were taking over the world on Monday. 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 ...
Doctor Who Baker Essentials – Gifts for a fantastic Whovians kitchen
I love gift giving. Not for the warm fuzzy feeling, nope, I love gift giving because I make it into a competitive sport and I most always win...to the point where I get mad when AJ gives me a good thoughtful gift. He can't win. Never. Is there anyone else in the world that feels like this? Or is this just my weird blend of being type-A and basically a completely ...
The Barnes & Noble membership has all of the benefits.
I hate when you go to a store and they ask if you want their discount card, only to find out you actually have to pay a membership fee to save money. Annoying, right? Well last year I decided to bite the bullet and pay the $25 for a Barnes & Noble membership. I actually just received a notice that our membership is about to expire, and you better believe I'm going to ...
The Great Dane Pub & Brewing – Madison, Wisconsin
When I think of brew pubs I instantly think of The Great Dane, it's the golden standard for brew pubs and I can't get enough of it. The first time we went to The Great Dane in Madison it was almost 5 years ago, we were going to a concert at the Majestic theatre in downtown Madison and before the show we decided to grab a bite to eat at the flagship Great Dane. We've been going ...
A very geeky college study room
My 26th birthday is next week, and I was out of town for a few days this week on the set of Fuller House. Yesterday I came home all jet lagged, and it was getting late so we decided we would grab dinner, but before we left AJ handed me a house key to my new present. I was pretty confused, but down to my insane mess of an office (that I didn't even use anymore, it became more of ...
