Have You Been to the Waffle Window?
Honestly if anyone ever asked me what to do in Portland when it’s raining, I would tell them to try some of the amazing places to eat. You will probably have to drive into some interesting parts of town to find something different yet incredible. Portlanders take just as much pride in creating an atmosphere [...]

Splurge For the Week
I truly believe that if you are to stick to a tight budget that you do need to reward yourself sometimes, or splurge a little. A splurge for me will be different than a splurge for you. I love Food, I say it often on here. I love creative food, and because of that I [...]
