Well, Hello There

Happy Monday! As I mentioned in my previous post I got married this past weekend! The day was magical and lovely and an all in all grand time! I wanted to take a minute to share with any DIY-loving brides-to-be a fun gift idea to share with their future hubbies!  I admit I can't take full credit for this crafty little creation, I got the idea from "Pinterest", duh! However, I thought this idea was cute, fun and simple so I figure it's worth sharing! The Groom's Day of Survival Kit.... ***Socks*** To keep cold feet away ***Life Savers*** To keep you from drowning in emotion ***Booze*** To calm your nerves ***Mints*** To ensure a fresh kiss ***Ring Pops*** In case you forget the essentials   There you have it! See, I told you this idea is painless! Besides, this gift consists of mostly food so any dude is sure to love it. You can't tell but there's a pair of bad a$$ shark socks in there too, shout out to ou

Greetings to All!  I just want to take a moment to provide a shout out to Cabin on the Creek LLC in Fremont WI. This past weekend I booked the cabin to throw a fiesta in celebration of Jake and I's quickly approaching wedding day! We had a blast and our stay at this cabin more than exceeded all of our expectations. We had 13 guests total including ourselves, the cabin has 6 beds and can comfortably sleep 12. Not everyone in our party stayed overnight so this worked out perfectly for us. We were blown away from all of the amenities the owners provided from an oven, refrigerator and even pots and pans! There's a TV, boombox and a very unique basement bathroom (you'll have to visit in person to see what I mean ;p) this place seriously has it all! Not to mention the owners are extremely kind and went out of their way to make sure we had a great visit, complete with a tractor ride around the farm! So, I guess what I'm trying to say is THANK YOU to Cabin on the

Gotta, gotta, gotta catch em' all....  No, this post is not about Pokemon Go. Sorry to bust your bubble friends! As you may or may not be aware the beloved 90's animated series "Pokemon" is now available for your viewing pleasure on Netflix. Can I get a "Weeeeeeee!" for nostalgia!! Now, as I've mentioned in the past, my Pokemon knowledge is very limited as I was not allowed to watch the show growing up. "But wait.... the background of your blog is a Pikachu..." you may be whispering to yourself suspiciously. Yes, I know, I know... I'm a bit of a poser like that however, in my defense I did see a few episodes here and there and hey! who doesn't find that little Japanese mouse to be adorable!? Am I right or am I right? If my reasoning still isn't redeemable enough for you, you'll be happy to know I have begun my own Pokemon journey of sorts thanks to Netflix. Long story short, what I'm trying to say here is I started w

Good Day to All! If you've read my blog before I'm sure you've already come to know that I am a fan of the great outdoors! This past weekend I went on a mini adventure to Door County's Potawatomi state park with my fiance and two good friends. Yes, Door County is a Wisconsin hot spot but, Potawatomi often takes the back seat to the more popular and well known Peninsula state park (It's ok Potawatomi, we can't all be one of the cool kids). I find Potawatomi to be a hidden gem and would certainly recommend stopping by if your ever in the mood to hit up Wisconsin's peninsula. While visiting the lovely town of Sturgeon Bay be sure to check out some of these hot attractions.... Not Licked Yet: Not Licked Yet is a scrumptious frozen custard joint up in Fish Creek WI featuring crazy sundae creations such as the Chubby Bunny and the Chunky Monkey, creepy gnomes and hungry ducks hoping to snatch up some popcorn. I am an ice cream fanatic so this place is a mus

This is a post that I have been contemplating writing for a while now. However, today is the day I was pushed over the edge... Oh yes just moments ago I deemed it my destiny to scribe this fine rant once and for all. I work in a university setting, that being said everyone here is a grown a$$ adult. Therefore, it seems logical to me that each of us would understand proper bathroom etiquette. Well my friends, I have been proven time and time again to be sadly mistaken. Oh the things I have seen. My poor eyeballs have been scarred for life, their innocence stripped away one disturbing bathroom visit after the next. Doust tho know not how to flush? Fellow restroom goers why have you forsaken me!?! Frightening beasts dwell in those cursed stalls, some more vulgar than others yet each equal in terror and disgust. Bathroom users (aka everyone in the Human race) you have me down on my knees. I'm begging you please flush it down. flush it down, down, down, flush it down, down, d

Hear ye, hear ya my lords and ladies Every awesome person knows that a visit to the Ren Faire is a Summer "must"! If you haven't been fortunate enough to experience the magic of such an event or if you aren't quite convinced the faire is all it's cracked up to be allow me to present you with some reasons Renaissance Faires are the bomb-diggity. Reason #1: Food Where else can you devour a giant freaking turkey leg the size of your arm? Showcase the barbarian you truly are and chow down!  I legitimately saw a woman wearing a shirt that said "I'm only here for the turkey legs", now that's what I call a testimonial. Turkey doesn't trip your trigger? Alright, how about some delicious soup complete with an edible bread bowl! Too hot for you? That's ok! Dive in to a delightful bbq sandwich or even some fresh pizza! Don't forget to wash it down with a hardy brew! While we're on the subject of food, DO NOT even get me started on the
