Boston Brews: Democracy Brewing

Lifestyle
Happy Thirsty Thursday! 😉 Today, I’m sharing another brewery in Boston for the Boston Brews series. A couple of weeks ago, Joe and I stopped by Democracy Brewing located right by Boston Common and Boston Public Garden. The perfect location to grab a couple of drinks before walking around and enjoying the beauty of the Common and Garden. History Democracy Brewing opened last year, on the 4th of July and opened with the mission of recreating the traditional public house, brewing the best beer in Boston and pairing it with tasty food. They believe in the dream of owning...

Leopard Joggers + Denim Jacket

Fashion•Outfits
Hello! Happy Monday, and HAPPY JUNE! I cannot believe it. While summer doesn’t officially start until June 21, it always officially feels like summer once June hits. The temperatures are consistently warm and the calendar starts to fill up with so many summer events and trips. The next three months are going to fly by and I can’t wait for what’s to come! I wore this look a couple of weeks ago and am obsessed with all things leopard print right now. I found these adorable leopard joggers at Primark and knew that I would get a ton of...

Boston Brews: Widowmaker Brewing

Dog Friendly•Emma Approved•Lifestyle

Hello! I’m so excited to kick off a new series here on the blog – focused on one of my loves, GOOD BEER! Welcome to Boston Brews, a biweekly series where I will be sharing about a different brewery in the area. I actually wanted to start a similar series when I was still in Minneapolis because there are tons of good breweries there too, but what’s better than starting this off fresh in a new city? I will be posting at least every other Thursday because who doesn’t want to talk about or read about beer on Thirsty...

Swimsuit Sale: My Favorite Summer Swimsuits!

Fashion•Shopping

Hello! I wanted to do a quick post to share that one of my favorite swimsuit retailers is having 60% OFF today with code CYBER60. Yup, that’s right – 60% off AND a Cyber Monday sale in May. I love the concept and it’s a great time to stock up on swimsuits because pool season starts this weekend! Yeah yeah Memorial Day Weekend (gotta love when pool season finally starts)! I purchased quite a few swimsuits from them two years ago for my bachelorette party and honeymoon in Tuscany, Italy. At the time I posted my honeymoon swimsuit photo,...

Why Boston?

Lifestyle

I’ve been asked this question by almost every single person I told we were moving here – friends, family, co-workers, followers and even strangers who have overhead us telling others! The funny thing I didn’t expect is that I’ve gotten that same question since settling in here, why are you here? What brought you here? The problem with answering this question is there is no short reason for me. It wasn’t a job that brought us here, even though I applied to and interviewed with places. But it was always more than that. It was a mutual decision that...

My Favorite Spring Dresses

Fashion•Shopping

Now that it finally feels like spring, I’m craving gorgeous spring dresses. From pretty pinks to some classic floral prints, here’s a list of my current favorite spring dresses. Many of these would double as amazing dresses to wear to any upcoming spring or summer weddings. Additionally, many are under $50!

Week Two in Vermont!

Lifestyle•Travel

Oh where to begin? Are you surprised that I’m late on this post, just like the first one (I’m certainly not)? Even though we’ve only been out of Minnesota for three weeks, it feels like a lifetime. Time moves slowly in Vermont. Which, I’m not complaining about, it’s just different than the fast-paced lifestyle we’ve been used to for so many years. Anyway, week two we definitely started to make more strides in our routine. I’ve been taking the time to go for a short run every morning – nothing crazy – just enough to clear my mind, get...

Spring Style: Women’s Hats

Fashion•Outfits

So far the weather in Vermont has been what you would expect of springtime: a few chilly days, a few warm days and a lot of rain. Also, just a little snow – like 15 minutes worth, but nothing like Minneapolis just got (thank GOODNESS we avoided that 😉 ). This has been amazing because I mostly packed spring clothes for our month in Vermont, which was hopeful at best. I did bring my winter coat, but am so glad I’ve only had to wear it a few times so far! With my limited selection of clothing, we did...
