This post intended for ages 21+. Please drink responsibly.

At the end of a long day, we love to slip outside with a glass of something worth savoring. And I've just found my new favorite, Garrison Brothers HoneyDew comes in!

This award-winning small batch bourbon is handcrafted in Hye, Texas, the first legal whiskey distillery in the state. It' infused with 100% Texas wildflower honey for a smooth, light finish that makes every sip feel like a deep breath.

Every bottle carries information about its individual batch, including the bottle number and release date, so you know exactly what makes yours special.

Pour it neat, head outside, and let the evening do the rest!

There are restaurants, and then there are places that just feel good the moment you walk in. Blue Door Farm Stand is the latter.

From the hanging ferns and warm faux candlelight to the marble tables and vintage chairs, the space wraps around you like a long exhale. It's the kind of place you want to linger.

And the food gives you every reason to do exactly that.

We started with the spinach artichoke dip, creamy, cheesy, and topped with a generous shower of parmesan, served alongside the most perfectly crisped tortilla chips. It disappeared faster than I'd like to admit.

Then came the BKT wrap, packed with scrambled eggs, kale, and caramelized onion in a golden, toasted wrap. The cross-section alone was enough to stop the table's conversation.

And the chilaquiles, a crispy tortilla base layered with red sauce, avocado, red onion, and cilantro, crowned with a sunny-side-up egg whose yolk broke at just the right moment! It was nothing short of spectacular.

Oh, and the espresso martini? Absolutely non-negotiable. Rich, frothy, and deeply satisfying, it was the perfect way to ease into a leisurely morning.

Blue Door Farm Stand, you had me at hello.

It's cold and snowy outside, but I've got hot, tasty ramen at home, with a boost of extra protein!

I was invited to try ramen and share my thoughts about these noodles.

I was so excited to get extra protein from ramen! The noodles alone, without any add-ons, contain 28 grams of protein 😯 !

This little 4-minute bowl of deliciousness is also 🌱 plant-based AND has less carbs and sodium than most other instant ramen brands. Plus Immi ramen give you more fiber in every bowl, too!

The Tom Yum flavor was my favorite, but I also enjoyed the zesty Spicy "Beef" flavor and the Black Garlic "Chicken," too!

If you're looking for a yummy, plant-based ramen that gives you a little protein boost, be sure to give a try! You can order and find out more about them at https://shop.immieats.com or by clicking the link in my TapBio!

🏈🏈 GO BEARS!!! 🏈🏈

It's so exciting to see the Chicago Bears in the playoffs! Let me tell you, it's going to be a hot time in the old town this weekend when the Bears play the Green Bay Packers!

And even though Wisconsin is home to the Packers, we can show some grace because the best cheese 🧀 in America also comes from Wisconsin.

I'm a big fan of cheese curds, those squeaky little nuggets of dairy heaven, but I never tried making fried cheese curds at home. Turns out they're super easy to make in the air fryer! 🥳

I started with cheese curds from because I love ❤️ how many flavors they come in, from hot and spicy buffalo to soothing, cool ranch. I used natural for my first batch, but I am going to make hickory bacon and Cajun for the game.

I preheated my air fryer to 350 and got busy. I dredged the curds in flour, dipped them in whisked egg, then rolled them in Italian breadcrumbs. I laid them on a parchment paper-lined tray, spritzed them with cooking spray, then air fried them for about 3 minutes. I flipped 'em and air fried them again for another 3 minutes.

I set them out with ranch and Sriracha for dipping and they were GONE in minutes! I was lucky to snag one--you wouldn't believe the loooooonnnggg cheese pull that we got with these!

😄 SWIPE TO THE END TO SEE THAT PULL! 😄

You can always find Ellsworth Cheese Curds online at www.ellsworthcreamery.com or at your local grocery store. Or hit my Tapbio to go straight to their site!

Last month we had the great pleasure of enjoying Cooper's Hawk Wine Club Dinner at the Naperville location. We've enjoyed quite a few of these special events, but this menu and wine pairings were a step above the already-high bar!

We began with conversation and cocktails, with a maple old-fashioned being the autumn-inspired drink of choice.

The first course was a fluffy petit baguette with toasted pumpkin seed butter, alongside shrimp and fennel sausage risotto. These were served with a delightfully clean and fresh Gruner Veltliner white white, created in a collaboration between Cooper's Hawk and Curtis Stone.

Our main course was a showstopping duo of bacon-wrapped beef tenderloin medallions, chives potatoes, and roasted green beans. It was paired with the rich GSM red blend (made from Grenache, Syrah, and Mourvèdre grapes), also created in collaboration with Curtis Stone.

As delicious as each savory course was, my favorite of the evening was dessert. A velvety slice of almond praline cheesecake, topped with a praline crisp, was served with Cooper's Hawk Almond Sparkling. Let me tell you, this cheesecake was pure heaven, and it paired perfectly with the almond sparkling. It was a dessert I'm still dreaming of now!

The 2025 November Wine Club Dinner was their best one yet. I wish I could experience it over and over again, but since I can't, I'm looking forward to the next!

We stopped in for a quick frozen margarita ($12) at Bodega Taqueria y Tequila and let me tell you, my little frozen concoction brought out the sunshine on a cloudy day!

Food was available, but our sights were set on the margaritas. My mango margarita was blended beautifully, resulting in an almost creamy consistency that was as palate-pleasing as the flavor. Its classic sibling was equally refreshing, with that little lime kick that we just love!

We'll be back for more, , so keep those frozen margarita machines running!

Nestled in the theater district of Chicago is the lively Elephant & Castle pub and restaurant, where you can grab a pint or a bite of British fare without breaking the bank.

It was the perfect pre-theater, family dining experience, with something for everyone! We especially loved how so many of their menu items could easily be made gluten-free or vegetarian.

Service was fast and pleasant, but we were able to dine leisurely, without being rushed.

SCROLL👈 to see everything we enjoyed!

🇬🇧 Hummus platter with pita and veg ($13)
🇬🇧 Fried pickles chips with burger sauce ($9)
🇬🇧 Steak & mushroom pie w/noble house salad ($14.5)
🇬🇧 The wee pie flight - one of each piece flavor: shepherd's pie, chicken pot pie, steak & mushroom pie, and cheesy leek & potato pie ($12.50)
🇬🇧 Bacon and bleu cheeseburger w/poutine ($16.75)
🇬🇧 Cheese toastie w/chips ($14)

Portions were plentiful and every dish was hearty, flavorful, and comforting. Our favorite dish was (surprisingly) the cheese toastie. The onion and cheese melded perfectly, and the bread was toasted just right!

We left with full bellies and a resolution to go back again. Next time I want to leave room for the dessert, because the Highland bread pudding at the next table looked too good to be missed!

There are TWO Elephant & Castle locations in Chicago. We visited the one at 185 N. Wabash. There are other locations in the US and Canada, so be sure to pay them a visit!

Chloe Lighter is an elegant and delicious wine that's perfect for summer!

This beautifully crafted Italian pinot grigio is made from grapes that are harvested early, when sugar levels are naturally lower. This creates a lighter wine with fewer calories and lower alcohol levels, so you don't disrupt your healthy summertime routines.

With light, crisp flavors of green apple, lime, and honeysuckle, you won't believe this wine has just 9% ABV and only 80 calories per glass!

Have you tried Chloe Lighter Pinot Grigio? What type of Chloe wine would you like to see in a lighter version?

Thank you and for the complimentary box of milk chocolate Minis in exchange for my honest review!

I'm crazy about these little frozen treats! Luxurious Dove milk chocolate houses a frozen haven of sweet ice cream. This variety pack of both choloate and vanilla mini ice cream bars offers options for chocoholics and vanilla lovers alike.

I especially like that the bars are individually wrapped so they stay fresh and free from freezer burn. Plus, its easier to eat just one if they're singly wrapped.

I'm looking forward to trying the dark chocolate versions next. I have a feeling I'm going to love them!

Sending a HUGE thank you to and for these prebiotic and postbiotic probiotic gummies!

The fruity taste and soft texture makes taking my supplements a treat. Self care has never tasted so good, and my gut health is better than ever!

Thank you!
