This week I have been traveling for work so I am sure you have noticed that it has been a little quiet around here. Ever since I touched down in Denver on Monday morning, I have been on the go. A few flights later and I am now enjoying a cup of coffee in the hotel lobby before I begin my day with our interns in Wichita, Kansas.
The weather in Colorado was absolutely beautiful, the crisp air and 70 degree days were perfect for all the outdoor activities that we had planned for our interns. I snapped this picture as I was leaving the office, wishing this was my view every day! :)
Our office is in Boulder, Colorado which is about 40 minutes northwest of Denver. Boulder is a quaint town that has an amazing food scene that many describe as being "hip and contemporary." When I am in town, I try to go to restaurants that I haven't tried in the past and this trip was no exception. I ventured to
Oak at Fourteenth and
SALT, both had been recommended by locals so I knew they were not going to disappoint...and they didn't at all.
Quinoa Strawberry Salad, Tomato Braised Meatballs and a glass of Rose from Oak at Fourteenth.
Tom's Tavern Burger with hand cut fries and homemade ketchup (yum!) from SALT. You get to create your own cocktails based on your "personalized flavor formulation," which was really neat. The house-infused simple syrup that I selected was blood orange rosemary to be mixed with vodka and served as "cocktail style." Oh, it was heavenly!
Speaking of travel, if you have recently flown on a Delta flight then you may have seen these safety videos being played instead of the Flight Attendant rehearsing their safety script. It is entertaining, you can watch it
here.
This has been my go-to travel outfit recently because it's guaranteed that I will be sweating one minute and then freezing cold the next. I have loved the
Ruffneck Jersey Dress by Gretchen Scott. It is the perfect dress because it has three quarter length sleeves, doesn't wrinkle and is very comfortable.
I hope everyone is having a great week! I can't wait to kick my feet up tonight and catch up on what everyone has been up to recently!
Nothing better than eating fancy on the company dime! ;-)
ReplyDeleteThankfully, my colleagues enjoy eating and trying new restaurants as much as I do! Xo, Stephanie
