Silvek’s; Little Rock, AR

Silvek’s is a fancy bakery inside a regular Kroger. I wish I’d thought I take a shot of the ridiculous array of choices there, but I was overwhelmed by the decision making process. Didn’t help that we had arrived right … Read the rest of this entry →

The Huckleberry; Louisville, CO

When traveling, always ask the locals for restaurant suggestions. We stayed with our friends Michael & Wade in Louisville, CO after Gilly & Jerry’s wedding. It was a great visit, and we can’t wait to head that way again! Of … Read the rest of this entry →

Fitz’s; St. Louis, MO

I used to eat at Fitz’s in college (on the days I had money). It was good, but I’m not a rootbeer buff (or any soda, for that matter), so it wasn’t my usual haunt. I took Nathan there on … Read the rest of this entry →

Hot Doug’s; Chicago, IL

This was another suggestion from a friend who had never eaten there, but I believe saw it on Food Network or some place similar. Actually, it was Nathan’s uncle who literally insisted we had to try it. Our local friends … Read the rest of this entry →

Ethiopian Restaurant; Denver, CO

I love Ethiopian food! Ever since our accidental Eritrean experience in Chicago last year, Nathan has been much more open to foods served on delicious sourdough pancake-y things. After our Blue Bonnet debacle, we were desperate for some good food. … Read the rest of this entry →

So here we are, in Aruba, hanging out with Dan & Tammy. They’re getting married on Tuesday, but today we met with the planner to get the last details squared away. Their wedding is going to be super! We have … Read the rest of this entry →

Chez Steve & Amanda; St. Louis, MO

We showed up in St. Louis with two overripe mangoes that needed eating STAT! Luckily, Steve is a chef and Amanda is a genius (did you see her cinnamon rolls?) and they came up with pork chops with a mango … Read the rest of this entry →
