Happy Halloween! We’re back from vacation and finishing up our costumes—at the 11th hour, in typical fashion—and getting ready to head downtown for the Davis trick-or-treat trail, where they show Charlie Brown on repeat at the local theatre. Then, we’ll go to our friends’ annual party before more trick-or-treating (assuming the rain holds off). Aron and I are coordinating our costumes, but the kids are on their own this year! I’ll share some photos tomorrow.
What will you be doing?
Here’s some last-minute inspiration if you’re looking…
Americans, I think, eat breakfast with more an air of importance than any other meal. Of course, a lunch break gets you through the day; and dinner can be fancy. But oh, breakfast. It doesn’t just start your morning, it’s where creativity shines. Think about all of our varieties of breakfast foods, how you might associate one dish with a certain area of the country, how we’ve blended some of those items into one delicious heart-attack-waiting-to-happen (I’m looking at you, The Dahlia from Denver Biscuit Company). (But seriously, click on that link. You won’t regret it.)
For all my love of pancakes and biscuits and waffles and omelettes (the list goes on–I love breakfast), I have to admit though: most days, like, normal days, I skip it. Or when I’m being my responsible self, maybe I’ll cut some fruit over yogurt and honey before reaching for the coffee.
In “5 Things,” I’ll ask locals from cities all over the world to share insider travel tips on where to eat, shop, stay, and play in their neighborhoods (plus, what to pack to make the adventure complete). This week, two stylists, Lacey Kincheloe and Stephanie McKellar, show us the sights in Nashville, Tennessee.
My husband, Josh, and I just celebrated our second wedding anniversary, as well as our second year living in Nashville. In our short time here we’ve developed a few favorite places around the city, although it’s growing so quickly it can be hard to keep up! If you’re heading to Nashville for a weekend trip or an extended vacation, here are some of my go-tos.
