Oh Herrow.

It's already September and my summer vacation is quickly coming to a close. I feel like summer just started and now i'm left, scrambling around trying to get last minute things done before my busy schedule starts.

It's been quiet over here on the blog due to a few reasons...
-Just moved into my new apartment (and have no internets)
-Unpacking/setting up everything in the new apartment
-Started my internship and have been working late nights

I am currently sitting in a local coffee shop that is just down the street from my apartment to have internet access. I'm thinking this is going to be a daily thing and in the process I will be saving some money.

As for labor day, I am heading back to my hometown for a mini-break before my busy school year starts. I have a lot on my plate, but am looking forward to the busy-feeling again. I have a couple thoughts that have been brewing in my mind for weekly blog post ideas. We'll be seeing one hopefully later this week.

Enjoy your labor day weekend, all!

Weekend Refresh

This weekend was full of good times and plenty of good food, courtesy of restaurant week in Ann Arbor. Jon and I got to spend a couple of days with one of my very best friends. 

Beware: lots of pictures

This is Emma. She is pretty cray.

Since it was restaurant week, we took advantage of a few of the deals that were going on at the restaurants in town

Cracklin' Chicken at Blue Tractor

Breakfast at Sava's

My first time at The Melting Pot enjoying some hot cheese and chocolate

We also had to make a stop at one of my favorite places ever: Zingerman's. They have the best bread and cheese selection and some very pretty treats to look at.

They also have one of the best fountain pop machines: Boylan's! My favorite is the Creamy Red Birch Beer.

We also spent our first night in town at Heidelberg. We figured we should get acquainted with the place that I will be spending a few months at.

We played an intense few rounds of darts

This is Jon, my main squeeze and I hanging outside of Heidelberg

After eating way too much in Ann Arbor, Jon and I headed back to Kalamazoo for some quality family time and relaxing.

Family beach day in South Haven

All in all, it was a pretty fantastic weekend. We also got some delicious goodies at our local farmer's market. Now we are spending the rest of our last day of the weekend watching Community, battling the high pile of laundry, and getting some homework done.

Hope you all enjoyed your weekend as well :)
