Well, it took me awhile, but I’m back! I could make excuses but I guess it just boils down to the fact that I got distracted. The past three months have been action-packed as I finished up my MBA program There was a lot of travel (Hong Kong, Vietnam, Thailand, Nicaragua, and camping […]
A few weeks ago I decided that I need an escape from Evanston.
Between the cold, grey winter, seemingly never-ending storylines and a mountain(ish) of work, an escape from “the bubble” was more than necessary to attempt to reset and refocus before gearing up for my last quarter in business school. While a tropical getaway […]
While I love Chicago (to a degree) and have committed to working here for the next few years, there are some things that really irk me about the place. For example, the lack of diversity in the food scene. Sure Chicago is known as a restaurant town but I challenge you to find […]
Man oh man does time fly! I knew that my blogiversary was in October but didn’t really realize that I’ve been blogging here for 6 years at this point. And when I say “here” I’m not including the fact that I’ve had blogs for like 9 or 10 years before the 6 years […]
You all know that I love me some preserving. Let me turn some fruits into jam or pickle some vegetables and I’m a happy camper. I’m particularly happy when I get to crack open a jar of preserved peaches in February.

As you […]
Man oh man! Where does time go? My last post was January 30th and here we are sitting at the end of March. Needless to say the past few months have been kind of crazy… “kind of” being a serious understatement. I’m actually writing this as I listen to Justin Timberlake’s new CD […]
Remember when I used to make macarons? I haven’t made them in AGES. In fact, the last batch that I made were the ones pictured above and that was literally a year ago. I’ve spent the past year with the intention of writing a post about these macarons but I never […]
After a looooong quarter of Kellogg fun followed by a jam-packed snowy week of Kellogg fun aka ski trip my body is like “girl, please” and has decided to shut down. This means that for the past two days I have basically done nothing but napped, watched all of this season’s […]
