This weekend (Oct. 5-7) is The Original Greek Festival at Annunciation Greek Orthodox Cathedral has everything a girl can dream of: food, music, wine, shopping, food, activities, wine, coffee, food, wine—you get it. You’ve got tonight, all day tomorrow and Sunday to hit it up, and as a native Houstonian, I do this thing a lot. … Continue reading
Inhale. Exhale. Sip Tea. Buy a Crystal. DEFINE Living is one of 21 stores in the DEFINE umbrella of work out studios. It’s different from all the other ones that I’ve been to because it in part shares a space with the nearby Life HTX building for its yoga classes, has a little cafe, and … Continue reading
Houston has no shortcomings of fabulous pizza options. Seriously, you could pizza from different yummy spots every day for a month without repeating. Not that you should. Actually please don’t do that. But you know a “pizza restaurant” is really good if you go and don’t eat any pizza and still have an amazing dinner. … Continue reading
We’ve quite literally brunched across America (even battled between the East and the West coasts), but we hadn’t yet brunched at Pax Americana right here in Houston. We’ve fixed that.

Thankfully, I was able to break the brunch drought due to the holidays and excessive amount of travel adventures to go check out Café Azur’s new brunch menu! I was quite excited to visit Café Azur because the restaurant is … Continue reading
Tis the season for tacky sweaters, spiked eggnog, and beautiful (and/or cheesy) holiday cards. If you’re planning on sending out cards this season and didn’t plan a head and take bomb picture wearing Santa hats in front of the pyramids in Egypt on your trip over the summer, have no fear! Houston is a magical … Continue reading
This week has been a whirlwind of activity and fitness-wise and otherwise. I did yoga for the first time in a long time last weekend at Breakfast Yoga Club’s September event (see blog post!) and lawd did I feel it in my hamstrings after a nice splits session. Clearly, this was my body telling me … Continue reading
Even though it first opened in Austin, Uchi is a must-visit for Houston visitors. And I was failing at being a tourist in my hometown, because I had never been to Uchi. Party foul. Don’t worry; I fixed it. My first taste of Uchi was… extensive. This fall menu is NO JOKE, Y’ALL. Let me … Continue reading
