Five Things
Adventures around Avon Nature Study Area
Oh hey, 2018! We made it through the first week… yay! As you probably have read the end of the year was a less than stellar experience for me, and I was left pretty broken in more ways than one. However it’s a new year, and I have renewed outlook on life and am ready to face 2018 in the most positive way possible. Between delicious food, great hikes and beautiful flowers the first week has set such a positive tone for year.
With everything going on I had completely lost my appetite, but someone was super concerned about me so he made sure I ate, and we ended up getting beyond amazing mahi mahi tacos at OWL.
Snow and frigid temperatures present plenty of snow adventures.
*Note: i need new boots these do NOT keep my feet warm at all.

Restaurant Review: Kruse and Muer
When we first started talking he had asked about my favorite local restaurant, to which I answered Kruse and Muer (seriously LOVE their house salad). If you have never been to Kruse and Muer before I highly recommend it, their food is amazing. The atmosphere is on the nicer side of the spectrum, but also has a fun side since you get to draw on your brown paper that covers your table. We had gone to the restaurant previously together, and this time we decided to try their pizza since neither of us had tried it before. We each got a side house salad – it was his first time trying it and he definitely approved. As mentioned above we ordered the pizza, and unfortunately I was a tad bit underwhelmed by it. While everything I have ever had there has been absolutely amazing, I kind of expected more especially with how good the bread is. I can definitely see why people love it though, it has it’s own unique style, and pairs nicely with the house salad.

Winter can be an absolutely miserable time of year; therefore I always try to make a list of things I want to do that will keep me from falling into the dreaded winter depression.
