Weekend in Savannah

Savannah was more than lovely last weekend. It was my first time really experiencing the city and I loved it.
For breakfast we ventured out to Tybee Island and got to walked on the sand which made it even better.
Here's a little glimpse at the trip and a few places we visitied that were great!

The Breakfast Club

The Coffee Fox

Bonaventure Cemetery

Zunzi's

Shopping on Broughton St

River Street

And we had intentions of visiting The Olde Pink House for drinks but ran out of time. It's definitley on the top of the list for next time! Along with a ghost tour at night!

Guide to Nashville

One of my best friends and I recently took a little weekend road trip to Nashville.
We crammed in as much fun as we could and I wanted to share some of my favorite spots if you're ever passing through.

Barista Parlor was my favorite spot of the whole trip. First off, I swoon over vintage bikes and this place was packed with them.
And secondly, every inch of their design/decor was perfection.
It helped that the weather was incredible that day because they have the most adorable outisde seating area where we were able to enjoy our iced coffee from a mason jar.

Another great coffee shop is Crema. Got a coffee with ginger and molasses. So good!
(And Brad Paisley was in line behind me so that must mean it's cool, right?!)

Dinner at The Pharmacy Burger Parlor & Beer Garden.
And drinks at Holland House Bar & Refuge while we waited for our dinner reservations. They had tons of great cocktails for $6.

After dinner we headed to Pinewood Social which is a really hip spot for drinks and they have a super cute retro bowling alley in the back. It's a must see!

We finished the night off by walking around downtown. (Which I quickly realized is not my scene.)
Lots of honkey tonking. But if you're into that theres hundreds of options to keep you occupied.

The next morning we drove out to Franklin, TN. Which was like 20min outside the city and has breakfast at Puckett's General Store.
Then finished the trip visiting a Flea Market at the Tennessee State Fair Grounds.

Some other suggestions I got but didn't have time to check out were:

Baja Burrito

Sam's Sushi

Pancake Pantry

Frothy Monkey

Marche

Burger Up

Silly Goose

Virago

It was an amazing little trip and I will definitely be visiting again!
Love to hear if any of you have more suggestions in the Nashville area for next time!

Chattanooga || TN

Got a last minute invite to go with Zac to Chattanooga this past wknd. I didn't have any time to plan but we still managed to find a couple neat places to check out! Here's a little list of some of the spots we went & would recommend if you're going to the Chatt area.

Aretha Frankensteins || Brunch

Milk & Honey || Coffee & Dessert

Terminal Brewhouse || Pub

Mojo Burrito || Hippie Burrito Joint

Taco Mamacitas || Texmex

My favorite place over all was Milk & Honey. It is a MUST even if you're just traveling through and need a coffee or little dessert break.

We also went to the Tennessee Aquarium which was fun but if you live near ATL, ours is much better so I wouldn't recommend spending the $25 per person on it. 

Overall, I think Chattanooga is a great spot for a weekend getaway but I don't know that I'd recommend it for a long stay. It was a little under a 2 hour drive for us from Atlanta so pretty quick commute. They have alot of outdoor stuff to offer too that we weren't able to do cause of the extreme cold over the weekend but if you go during the warmer months I'd definitely check that out. 

And last here's a couple more honorable mentions that we didn't have time to make it to but were highly recommended by friends!

Camp House Coffee

Mean Mug

North Chatt Cat

Heaven & Ale

Do you know of any neat spots near Chattanooga that you'd recommend going to? If so, I'd love to hear about them for the next trip!

New York City

This city stole my heart. End of story.
I've probably been to New York 10 times in my life and never felt a real connection to it but this trip changed my whole perspective. I've always thought that the West Coast was more my speed but after seeing some of the smaller neighborhoods around Manhattan, I was in love.

Chelsea was my favorite neighborhood overall but everything was lovely.  Here are some of the best spots we found & I  recommend checking them out if you're ever in the area!

Ace Hotel & Stumptown Coffee || W29th & Broadway
Chelsea Market || Chelsea
High Line Park || Chelsea
Museum of Modern Art || Midtown
Penelope's [brunch] || Murray Hill
The Donut Pub || Chelsea
Artichoke Pizza || Multiple Locations
Amor y Amargo || East Village

I'd love to hear if any of you have any 'must see' spots in NYC!
