Since summer is officially here, I thought it would be a good idea to come up with a summer bucket list of things I want to do/accomplish over the next 3 months. In an attempt to slow down my pace of life recently, I’ve really been concentrating on not booking up all of my weekends…
Thursday Things – Best Outdoor Patios
It’s no secret I’m a huge fan of al fresco dining. I live for the days I am able to sit outside for meals. Unfortunately, in the midwest the days are few and far between when it is actually outdoor patio season so I try and take advantage of the days we do have. Today,…
