We traveled to Norway with one purpose in mind, and that was to see the Northern Lights. When we first started planning, the first result that popped up in Google was for the Hurtigruten Northern Lights Cruise. The advertisements for the Hurtigruten were compelling, enticing, and romantic. We were desperate to see the lights, and we were sold. We’d...
I’m going to tell you right now that every doughnut you’ve ever had in your life was terrible. I know this because Five Daughters Bakery in Nashville, Tennessee has 100 layer doughnuts. 100 layers of ooey gooey, buttery sweet, thick and luscious doughnuts that vanish with a glance. Doughnuts that make me forget anything else in the world exists...
During our entire eight day trip to Norway, we only ate at three restaurants for a total of three meals. Everything was either closed, insanely overpriced, or unappealing. That means we lived off of snacks and were starving the majority of the time. We devoured our meals on the Hurtigruten, and Pepe’s Pizza at the airport filled a very...
After chasing down the Northern Lights unsuccessfully in Iceland four years ago, this unfulfilled dream of ours has never left the forefront of our thoughts. When we read that Tromsø was the one place on Earth where the Northern Lights appeared more than anywhere else in the world, Norway soared to the top of our adventure list. We immediately...
During our trip to Norway we spent a huge majority of our time eating items from the local 7-11 or Norwegian equivalent Narvesen, because much of the country was closed due to the Christmas holidays. During our time in Kirkenes alone, nothing was open except the hotel restaurant and it was entirely unappetizing due to the exorbitant price tags....
Of all the fabulous places to eat in Nashville, one of our favorites was a breakfast dive called Biscuit Love. It’s located parallel to Pancake Pantry which typically gets all the Nashville love, but because the line was shorter we opted to fill our tummies here. Plus, Biscuits. And, Bonuts.

All things considered, during our eight day trip in Norway we actually spent a majority of our time at the Oslo Airport, OSL. Three of those eight days were spent at the Oslo Gardermoen Airport in fact. We had zero success getting on a flight to Tromsø for Christmas, and we had zero success getting on a flight out of...
Touted on the interwebz as some of the best seafood Galveston has to offer, Miller’s Seawall Grill was our first choice for dinner the night we arrived in Galveston, Texas. In reality, that had nothing to do with why we chose to eat here. It was just the closest restaurant to our hotel and within walking distance. We were...
We actually had our heart set on some Elephant Ears at the pier to be enjoyed while riding the Ferris Wheel at the end of the dock of Pleasure Pier, but unbeknownst to us, said Pleasure Pier is closed Monday thru Thursday! After drying a bucket of tears and wringing out our soaking clothes from the injustice of it...
My very first job, at 16 years old, was at See’s Candies in Portland, Oregon at the Lloyd Center Mall. I loved it so much I transferred to the store in Orem, Utah during college, and when Gabriel and I were married came back to my job at Lloyd Center. Eating bon bons all day? That's the life. Especially,...
