It's time for the Minnesota State Fair! It seems like everyone is asking how to save money at the Minnesota State Fair so I put together a quick list of things I do every year to save money at the fair.

 Want to know about The Breakfast Club in Uptown? Keep reading!

Not too long ago, we headed to uptown for brunch at The Breakfast Club. The first thing you’ll notice when you arrive, is how bright bold and colorful the restaurant is. Definitely Instagram worthy. There’s even a cute turquoise blue throne that you can sit in to take pictures. You know I had a photo shoot before we left.

We arrived late at around 2:30, when they were about to close and they still allowed us to order breakfast, which was really nice of them. Thankfully we know just what we wanted.

I ordered the Chicken and Biscuit sandwich which came with tater tots and my son ordered the Plain Jane, which comes with your choice of pancakes, waffles, or French toast, along with eggs and sausage.

The food was decent, nothing super special. I think next time I’d love to try these S’mores pancakes, and the non-alcoholic Mimosa flights they offer. They looked amazing! It is the perfect spot for brunch with your girlfriends. But of course, guys will enjoy this Minneapolis brunch spot too.

My husband and I recently celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary and wanted to do something special to mark the special occasion.

Thank you Panda Express for sponsoring this post. Family is very important to me and now that my kids are older I don't see everyone as much but we try to still fit in family time. One of our favorite things to do as a family is going out to eat.

Last week I had the pleasure of attending the Palmer's Salon takeover at The Beauty Lounge and my daughter came along for all the fun.

Hey everyone! A couple of weeks ago my girls and I went to the Pinners Minnesota conference a place where Pinterest lovers and makers meet for all things crafty.

Spring break was a few weeks ago and I got to spend some time with my favorite little girls.

Ladies, it's back! The Thymes Spring Warehouse sale 2019 is here. Get your money straight because you don't want to miss this!

Candytopia is at the Mall of America! This sweet adventure has been all across the country and they're bringing their deliciousness to the Mall of America.

It's Christmas time and what better way to celebrate than taking in a holiday play. But not just any holiday play. No, I'm talking about the Grinch that stole Christmas!

It's time to make it merry with the Bachman's Holiday Ideas House. At the Bachman's Holiday Ideas House you can find each room is filled with Christmas decorations, fresh seasonal arrangements, Christmas trees, Christmas wreaths, and garland's galore.

A few weeks ago my daughter and gbaby had the pleasure of attending I Come From Arizona, a play that deals with the immigration issue from the eyes of a young girl.

Grandma wasn't able to attend so I sent the girls on my behalf.

One of the cool things about being a Minneapolis blogger is that I often get invited to grand openings and events. I wish I could tell you that I got invited to every Twin Cities event but when I do, it's the highlight of my week!

Natural sistahs in the Twin Cities had the time of their lives a few weekends ago when the Shades of Beauty & Twin Cities Natural Hair & Beauty Expos came to town.

I'm a foodie at heart and there's nothing that will make me happier than dining on delicious food with friends and family.

Summer is not only here but it seems as though it's flying by! There is so much that I still want I'd to do with the family.

Fashion week showed up in Minnesota at the end of April and this was my first time attending the fashion shows. Unfortunately, I was only able to attend one so I chose the Cake Plus Size Resale Fat Festival Fashion show.

It's time for the Twin Cities Auto Show and once again I headed to the Minneapolis Convention Center to check out all the new 2018 vehicles.

My birthday was a couple of weeks ago and this year I wanted to do something fun and different with my mini me, my daughter.

We had been talking about going to Glam Doll donuts newest location for a while and my birthday seemed like the best day to do it.

Minneapolis has been LIT over the past 10 days. I don't think I ever remember so many people flocking to our city all at once.
