Manuel and I have been trying to get better at budgeting (scratch that – Manuel is great at budgeting, I have been trying to get better!) When we sat down in May to review everything we had spent the past month, one thing was clear that we could cut back on… going to coffee shops for coffee. Since I work from home, typically I drink my Cameron’s Coffee first thing in the morning. I always drink it at home and it is always delicious. What gets me is when I am running errands in the afternoon or going to meetings…

Thelma’s Ice Cream Sandwich
You know that feeling you get when enjoying something truly special? It’s the best! Whenever I get to enjoy a Thelma’s Ice Cream Sandwich, I not only know that my taste buds will be in heaven, but I also know that it was handmade by a locally owned family business (which makes me so happy!)

June Chef’s Table at Fleming’s in Des Moines
Yesterday Manuel and I got to go try out the June Chef’s Table at Fleming’s in Des Moines. We had such an incredible experience in March that we were dying to get back! The Chef’s Table menu changes with the season and it is different at each of the Fleming’s locations. The Chef Partner works to create a menu that highlights the best features and local produce available at that location. I love that the Chef Partners are able to showcase their creativity and skill throughout these menus! Drinks Manuel’s Selection – The Manhattan Madison’s Selection – Hemingway V&T If…
