The Ultimate Sunday Funday

Boozy bocce, bowling, and brunch all in one day? Talk about the ultimate Sunday Funday! A few weeks ago I hosted 20 of my closest friends at the brand new Pinstripes, located in Pike & Rose in North Bethesda, for an epic day of brunching and fun and I swear we’re still all talking about what a good time we had. We started with an all you can eat boozy brunch which was set up buffet style. Usually, I’m a bit weary of buffets, but we were elated to find that this one did not disappoint. The options ranged from omelet stations, a waffle bar, flatbread pizzas, various salads, a bloody mary bar, and a chocolate fountain with every sweet you could ever imagine that could be dipped into it. I honestly couldn’t think of a thing that the brunch buffet was missing, it was on point. We were also pretty blown away by the attentive service to not only our table, but to the buffet stations, bocce courts and bowling alleys as well. You can always tell you are in good hands when your mimosa never dips below half-full. This guy knew his audience. Feeling full and content with our brunch […]

I love my job and feel completely grateful to be able to do what I do. I love it for so many reasons but number one has to be that I can work anywhere. Being able to work remotely, means I am able to travel and explore new places. All I need is my laptop, my iPhone and I can literally work from anywhere in the world. It may always seem like I’m on vacation but I can assure you, that “vacation” is full of lots of work on my computer and of course I always make time for some fun too! When I was recently invited to come check out the new residences at Pike & Rose, I jumped at the chance because I had absolutely fallen in love with the cute neighborhood when I was visiting Nava while prepping for my 10-mile race. And well, since I can work from anywhere, why not work from the residences at Pike & Rose for a day? I invited my hubby to come along and even Emma came to join for a few hours to help capture our adventure. Follow my adventure below as I give you a complete look at […]

Martasand A Night At The Arlington County Fair Funnel cakes, cotton candy and sugary lemonade are just a few reasons why we look forward to the county fair each year. It’s a time where we can throw our inhibitions out the window and indulge in all of the gluttony surrounding us. Living in walking distance of the Arlington County Fair makes it almost a cardinal sin not to visit the local staple on an annual basis. We started off with a fresh squeezed lemonade from the vintage-esque stand, it gave us just the sugar rush we were looking for and we were off to test the rides and games. We battled it out at the water game but Michelle walked away the winner toting a scary looking furry stuffed animal (which made Sarah feel better about losing). We rode the […]
