While I realize August is almost coming to an end, I didn’t want it to slip by without sharing some fun events with you. In all honesty, I should have been a good blogger and posted this sooner to cover all of the fun summer events that I attended/will be attending. Alas, I procrastinated. But…

Get Out Colorado!
If there is one thing that gets me going, it is finding a new adventure in Colorado. This state is full of wonderful state parks and places to day trip, in order to get outside. For those that love to adventure in the city, there are plenty of awesome venues and experiences to take advantage…
Ototo – Goodness from the Grill
Sushi Den is a well-known establishment in Colorado. If you are a local, you probably know it as the BEST place to get sushi in Denver and have probably been on numerous occasions. Sushi Den opened its doors in 1984 by Toshi Kizaki. Since then, they have expanded. Next door to Sushi Den is Izakaya…
Staycation: Gaylord Rockies
Gaylord Rockies is no different than the magnificent Gaylord portfolio. Each hotel provides a feeling of grandeur and luxury.

Exposing the Mystery that is Arcana

The ambiance makes the restaurant super inviting and sets a trendy tone. The rustic feel shines through even…
Staycation: DoubleTree by Hilton Vail

The Apple of My Rib Eye

It’s dimly lit rooms and borderline gothic, yet glamorous, decor leaves you at ease and ready for relaxation. To aid…
Best Colorado Margaritas
When it comes to cocktails, the margarita is at the top for me. There is nothing more refreshing on a hot summer day (or a cold winters night, let’s get real), than tequila salt and lime juice. Luckily, we have many establishments that know how to salt their rim and pour their booze just right….
