chicago charms – gbs + the pump room.

Happy  Monday friends! The last few weeks have been packed with so many fun things, so I thought I’d recap a few of my favorites to kick off the week on a good note. 
I had the great pleasure of starting off the weekend at Go Blog Social with one of my dearest friends, Lauren. I always love GBS because it gives me the opportunity to connect with friends near and far, meet the amazing bloggers I’ve been following online in person, and get to hear from some truly insightful bloggers and biz owners on their own journey. Best of all – this time the conference was in Chicago – so all I really had to do was roll out of bed and kinda sorta try to look nice {yay!}
Here are a few snaps from the event via the lovely Liv! I of course {in my sleepy state} forgot my camera card at home. Thank goodness everyone there was way more organized than me!
I loved hearing everyone’s presentations – especially from Cait about trying to find balance between blogging, relationships, and a full time job {aka, I can totally relate!}. I also loved hearing from Danielle of The Everygirl on the story of how she got started, and her amazing journey from blogger to full-time biz queen! 
Another highlight of last week was a delish dinner at The Pump Room at The Public Hotel with my hot date,  Kit ðŸ˜‰  As someone who loves a good meal {and discovering new gorgeous date night spots!}, I was blown away by how delicious everything was. I’m still dreaming of these amazing crustini {see below, and try not to drool}, and other incredible dishes. Oh…and there was wine – lots and lots of wine. Clearly, I’ll be back there with Brian soon 🙂
{Greek yogurt cheesecake with concord jelly & figs. It was just as good as it looked…}
{How pretty is the dining room? I’ll take a few of these light fixtures for the apartment please!}
Welp. Now I’m officially hungry again. 
Any fun plans this week? Do tell! I may or may not be going to a Demi Lovato concert with a few of my blogger besties…go ahead and judge away! I’ll be live tweeting through the whole thing, so get excited for that 😉 Have a good week everyone! xx
