& Happy Mon(Daè) 012

Happy Monday and first day of Spring. It’s crazy we had spring in February and winter in March. Winter is definitely not leaving like a lamb. Next month’s shenanigans include me buying my Cedar Point Season Pass and a 90’s Bar Crawl (The 90’s were all that & after last year’s shenanigans my tickets are…

Women’s March on Pittsburgh

Why I Marched on Saturday Saturday, January 21st the Women’s March on Pittsburgh wasn’t my first and probably won’t be my last time protesting.

& Happy Mon(Daè) 011

We’ve already lived through one week of 2017 and the world is just as chaotic as we left it in 2016 but we can look forward to the upside of life. There’s still Netflix and books to escape the reality of a Donald Trump Administration and how crazy the world is right now. I’m currently…

& 411 in the 412: Tequila Cowboy

411 in the 412 Pittsburgh’s nightlife hasn’t been the same since the closure of the numerous clubs in Station Square, which is now a parking lot. Whim had memories. If you went to Whim and couldn’t find something you liked, you just needed stay indoors but with that void comes great opportunity. Nashville based Tequila Cowboy…

& Fav 4 Restaurants in the 412

Now a days I eat at more food trucks than restaurants because “duh convenience,” and it’s super cheap. But sometimes nothing beats taking a seat at a restaurant and taking in the ambience; and let’s face it until food trucks can serve wine,  restaurants will be around a while. Pittsburgh’s food scene is booming and…

& ​Top 4 Food Trucks in the 412

One look at my Yelp profile and it’s apparent that I have a huge problem! From my very first food truck experience, I was hooked on the culture. One might say I’m an avid food truck follower but funny enough I tend to be where food trucks are most of the time. I’ve tried everything…
