Social House Restaurant

Last week was a long one. I had incredibly extra long days at my office and then of course having your own business, you are never off the clock. Then add in actually living a life that doesn't involve the work stuff, and yea Friday night I was exhausted.

I got home and decided cooking was not on the agenda so we headed out. We are very selective for going out lately just because we watch what we eat/ingredients we eat and we honestly save so much more money when we adhere to at home cooking. This can make the already inevitable couple car ride conversation of where to go even more exciting. You know what I'm talking about:

"I don't know, what do you want?" "Don't know, how about you?"

Omg, I would rather chew horse feed. Anyways, we survived another indecisive session and went with a new spot in our local area called the Social House. In short, me likey a lotty.

I went with the Buffalo Chicken Macaroni & Cheese, served with house made herb Ranch and a house made corn muffin, that had a lovely medley of herbs, which I believe to be Rosemary and Sage. Hunt got the always classic Fish and Chips. We both loved both dishes and would definitely go back. Now, I will say I don't know if I'll go back on a Friday night at 9:30. Why, you ask?

Because whether it's the newest place in the area, or every staff member displayed the ever popular hipster style, it was hopping with a very undergrad age crowd. And it was loud. Like, they had a DJ blaring and jamming and I apparently am old now loud. Embarrassingly enough, I even covered one of my ears when we first got sat because I was overwhelmed by the volume. I said it was a long week! Luckily, I warmed up and was even bouncing along to the beats by the end of the meal. I still got it.

To surmise, it is an awesome spot and the food was realll good. I'm interested in going back for brunch because the menu looked bomb-food and drink options both!- and well, while I can't quite hang the same as I did on a Friday night, I sure can get down on a Sunday at 11am. #brunchme

Let's meet again,

Self care reset

We all hear the buzzwords self care more than ever these days. Every where you turn, a lifestyle blogger, health guru, or magazine article shares insight on ways to treat yo self to some basic T. While I love modern discussions as much as the next girl, I’m aware sometimes it just doesn’t fit and you have to reset what isn’t working. For example, some weeks I am just done by the tine Friday hits. Hell, a rough Wednesday or Thursday has crept in there, too, requiring a pause and reflection for how best to naturally beat a funk or a “feeling of less than stellar”. Here my top self care reset ideas for your consideration: Drink water: Warm it with some lemon, try some green tea for an antioxidant boost, or just plain old room temperature is a sure way to get the boost to feeling a bit better. Face it: Fewer things feel as good as a really great face mask. I love charcoal in particular lately and always feel refreshed and restored and ready to ‘face’ another day. See w

Reset on a Weekend

One of my favorite things in the world is laying in bed on a weekend night watching Netflix movies while my Hunter and my Ro nap next to me and I scroll Instagram home design and wellness accounts as well. This is particularly enjoyable after an extra long week, I might add. I feel calm and giddy alike throughout this downtime. I am able to relax and unwind, often taking mindfulness breaks and enjoying a komboocha or lemon water simultaneously. It couldn’t be any more basic. This recharge makes me naturally happy creating reflection and gratefulness for everything in my life. I’m a hard worker with determination and I like to reach goals and make new ones so I feel like I’m on more than I’m not. I need to reset like this because it reiterates what it’s about most at the end of the day; health, happiness, and an attitude of gratitude. What is your approach to bring it all back to center? mk
