Notes from the Weekend: Meeting Our Nephew

08/08/16

While we were vacationing in Italy last month, my first nephew, Reed Thomas, was born on July 1. Now that my sister and her husband have had some time to get acquainted with their baby, it was time for a much-anticipated visit to Louisville, Ky. It was a quick trip but we made the most of our time there.

Reed is all boy and loves to eat and sleep.

My mom says he knows exactly what he wants and he lets you know it (aka he cries and fusses a lot) but that face!!

On Saturday afternoon, we brought lunch to my sister’s house and we met Reed for the first time. David is the baby whisperer and Reed fell right to sleep in his arms.

My sister lives near Louisville’s newest outlet mall, so we made a quick stop there where I picked up some white T-shirts at J.Crew before heading back to my mom and dad’s house to change for dinner.

Reed even joined us for dinner that night and he did great. It was a perfect night to sit outside and my entire family was there, including my two sisters, brother-in-law and my 12-year-old niece who keeps me up to date on all things social media.

On Sunday, we spent a short while at the pool, had lunch at home and then my dad took us for a spin around the neighborhood in the golf cart to remind us of what kind of house we could own if we lived closer before we departed for the airport.

We left with our hearts full, but wishing we had more time to spend in Louisville.

Three Summers ago my family and I came to Chicago Three Summers ago my family and I came to Chicago and there wasn't so much as a matcha cafe in sight. Now, so much matcha, so little time. Swipe through for my thoughts in each caption. πŸ’šπŸ’‹πŸ΅

The cafe itself had the cutest decor. The matcha had no flavor and all I could taste was the almond milk. 

Refreshing and not too sweet. The blueberry lemonade was the overarching flavor followed by the more bitter matcha. Perfect balance. 

Just a strawberry matcha. Nothing special and not the best I've had. 

This was an authentic Japanese spot with a premium matcha experience. They hand whisk it in front of you  and explain how they make it. I picked up a few tips. The matcha was authentic and rich. Only oat and whole milk options. 

Hand whisking and explaining the process in detail. 

Not a huge fan on oat milk in matcha because I think it overpowers the flavor. Overall, this was the most authentic like you'd get in Japan. 

Tbh, this was a basic coffee shop matcha but I loved the coffee shop itself. I made the mistake of agreeing that the syrup which was a sweetener. I don't like sweetened matcha so that knocked a star off. 

The most underwhelming of all. Drinkable but basic. Not bad, but I had too many other really good ones to measure against. 

This place has it all. The vibe, tbe energy, the neighborhood, the creative drinks, the community and a nice staff. 

This was the most delicious matcha I would give this place 1000 stars if I could. 

The place was bustling but they kept it moving and the staff was friendly despite the crowds and heavy drink orders. 

An authentic matcha experience with a modern edge. Seriously the best matcha and experience I've had at a matcha cafe.
