Steamboat: The Food

Travel

Well, we’ve been eating for 4 days and I’ve got lots to share with you. A big draw for us to vacation in Colorado was all the beer! I enjoyed a summer wheat beer from Odell and an amber from the Alaskan Brewing Co., while enjoying great view of the cute Yampa River. Happy hours seem to be big here and you can easily get a pint for $2! We stayed in a studio room at the Trailhead Lodge, which…

Happy Tuesday. After a failed day of babysitting (kid got sick = I went home), I tackled my to-do list and got in some extra relaxation. Matt and I leave for Atlanta in three weeks, so we paid a visit to Hillsborough to see my parents and have dinner. I had also hoped to vote, but when I let it slip that I live in Durham now, I wasn’t allowed to vote in Hillsborough where I’m registered to vote (duh,…

I’m home sweet home on this lonely Monday (Matt’s still working at his spring break practicum this week). It’s weird to go from a weekend of people and excitement, to such a quiet apartment. I was able to unpack and get ready for the week though. I was hoping to do laundry, but I can’t find the special card that my apartment requires! Uggg. Anyway, my last night in Baltimore was exciting. My Grandma had tickets to the opera before…

Feels Like Home

Durham Restaurants

Well aside from my blog being all out of sorts (sorry guys!), I had a fabulous weekend. Durham finally feels kinda like home, and not just some strange place I am visiting on an extended vacation. After running errands all day Saturday, I came home and split this Trippel with Matt. It was strong with a spicy-hop finish and I give it two thumbs up! Hopefully, I can add a few new beers to Beer Love once the blog is…

Toast

Durham Restaurants

Hi Friends, This weekend has been quite relaxing so far. Honestly, today has been most settled I’ve felt since the move back in June. All our furniture is here and the only thing we have left to do is hang a million pictures. My body also seems to be adjusting to my work schedule because I actually had the energy to go out last night. Matt and I walked over to Toast, a little cafe on Main St. that pairs…

Anasazi, Marble, Coyote

Travel

Seven more hours of driving and we arrived in Santa Fe just in time for lunch on the patio of the famous Inn of the Anasazi.    After a few bland beers in AZ, this nut brown tasted awesome! Matt and I split buffalo sliders, chili fries, and tuna tacos for a late lunch snack. Everything tasted really good, but nothing stood out (especially after how spoiled we have been over the past few days.) Below is a pic of…
