I just finished writing the most heartfelt post I’ve written in a loooooong time. It’s going live tomorrow and I can’t freaking wait for you to read it!
I walked to Stauf’s coffee shop early in the morn’ to write tomorrow’s post because it was just so lovely outside! Breakfast was that big bakery-style blueberry streusel muffin that I always talk so adoringly about with a cold brew on the side. I got mildly distracted by this fluffy off the shoulder blouse and this front tie top that I just had to order. Half off!!
Lunch was leftover roasted veggie pasta salad made with lentil zucchini pasta (recipe coming soon) with bunch of local strawberries from our lovely Yellowbird CSA. Alchemy is a pick-up spot so it’s super convenient!
After finishing up a meeting at Alchemy I headed to TRISM for some more meetings. Before diving in, I went to the kitchen and sampled a pita recipe we’re working on plus a new morning glory muffin featuring juice pulp. Delish!
Then I was still hungry so I hopped on the line and whipped up a smoothie with a dragon fruit packet, strawberries, cauliflower, peanut butter, chocolate Skoop protein, spinach, and almond milk topped with cacao nibs for crunch. It was thick and creamy and so satisfying. Just what I needed!
We biked to Local Cantina for some taco Tuesday lovin’ around 7pm. Of course we spilled our chips all over the floor. Oopsies!
There’s the cutest little Jeni’s in German Village so post tacos we enjoyed ice cream cones while we strolled around Shiller Park. Strawberry buttermilk + the darkest chocolate in a waffle cone for me and salted caramel + brambleberry crisp in a waffle cone for him.
It was a spontaneously lovely little date night. Have a splendid day, friends!
Mid-week date nights are the best! Especially when they end in ice cream. Looks like a delicious day!
Right? It was the perfect night!!
Wow it looks really amazing! If only my Wednesdays looked like this. I will try to make some more tasty food on week days as well though! Thanks for those.

That ice cream looks totally bomb. I don’t even usually like strawberry ice cream, yet had a huge urge to try that strawberry buttermilk flavor. I love how your day is filled with foods that nourish both the body and the soul! <3
