diary: Weekend Plans
Eric and I are heading to Tennessee this weekend to visit with my family and go to a UT football game. I’m super excited and already have plans to steal my brother’s camera in order to take pictures! (thanks in advance Nathan!)
With all the erratic weather happening across the country, I hope everyone finds something fun (and warm) to do. Have a great weekend!

The food is delicious, the menu is edited (but provides a great selection), there are TONS of daily dishes, and it won’t break your wallet. This restaurant is rapidly becoming one of my favorite places to eat in NYC as a...
