Last weekend, my friend, Megan and I decided to visit Moore Dessert Please! and were thrilled about their new cupcake sundaes.
First, you pick your cupcake. I went with their White Almond and Megan went for the Buckeye.
Next, you pick which flavor of Young’s ice cream you [...]
There is nothing better than fro yo, even when it’s still cold outside. So when my mom, sister, and I wanted to spend some time together on a recent weekend, Yoba is the first place we thought of.
And they’ve made some changes – Fresh green wall and some new decor [...]
After a morning at the salon going from blonde to brunette, I met my mom and sister for a big brunch at Olive, an Urban Dive. Since I didn’t know when I’d be done at the salon, we couldn’t make reservations so we had to wait at Olive for a bit so [...]
Since it was my birthday, Megan agreed to come with me to try the brunch menu at The Trolley Stop. We both agreed that any place with a mimosa bar is probably a safe bet.
The food is really good and the prices are definitely reasonable. I especially loved that [...]
Facing several unexpected expenses in a few months might be terrible to just about everyone, I imagine, however it was especially devastating to my husband and me because this is the first (and hopefully not last) Downtown Revival Festival – featuring our favorite band, Guided by Voices. We couldn’t afford to go [...]
On the last day of our staycation, my husband and I tried to make the best of a sad situation – having to go to work the next day – by spending time together and having fun.
We went on a walk in our neighborhood to Highland Park. Everything [...]
I love living in Dayton (see…this entire blog for reference) but one drawback to moving here was less access to the MetroParks. We’ve always lived so close to parks and trails that it was easy to escape for a while into another world. We had no idea until last Sunday that Eastwood MetroPark extended [...]
On a rainy Saturday afternoon, my sister, Beth, and friend, Kayleigh, went to 2nd Street Market for Beth to pick out some food for the week and for all of us to have lunch. We had a lot of fun buying things and eating, but when it got time for dessert, we didn’t know [...]
I spend most weekends not participating in 5Ks – let’s say maybe 50 out of 52 weekends a year. So you can imagine my surprise when I get invited to not 1, not 2, but 3 races on the same day, April 28, 2012. I can’t be in 3 places at once so [...]
A while back, I accompanied my sister on a Saturday filled with adventure. Well, first we went to Bob Evan’s, but then… Adventure!
We went to Truth & Triumph to get her ears pierced. Beth has some serious issues with ear piercing (she even had to get earrings surgically removed one time, and it [...]
Welcome!
I love Dayton, I've lived here for all of my 26 years and don't plan on settling anywhere else. I started this blog as a way to showcase the best of Dayton (as seen through my perspective) and also to share some of the things that occupy space in my mind, namely beauty, home decor, quotes, and various aspects of my life.
