On Monday, my mother went to Trader Joe’s in East Liberty as well as Raising Cane’s for lunch. Hearing this, I had to try it out for myself and I did so Friday. Raising Cane’s recently opened in North Versailles a couple of years ago. Other locations in the Pittsburgh area include Bridgeville, Oakland, andContinue reading “My First Raising Cane’s Visit!”

Greensburg Night Market/Coffee Bean Visit!
Being the last Thursday of the month, Greensburg held its monthly night market. That meant downtown was going to be packed. The growth of this event has been so phenomenal over the last few years. I went a few times in 2020 to support small businesses during COVID, as the local restaurants and shops neededContinue reading “Greensburg Night Market/Coffee Bean Visit!”
Stylish Food and Drink Review—Convive Coffee Roasters
This morning, I attended the Division Brilliant International Speech and Tall Tales contest. Before that I stopped at a new coffee shop that I’ve followed on Instagram for a while.

A perfect opportunityContinue reading “Stylish Food and Drink Review—Convive Coffee Roasters”
Turkey Ball Day: A Gaffron Family Tradition
Today, my mom got to work on her annual holiday treat, the turkey ball. The more fancier name would be the Turkey Croquette. While I was sleeping, Mom got the food processor out and was hard at work grinding up the turkey and the other ingredients. She saved me a few turkey balls to eatContinue reading “Turkey Ball Day: A Gaffron Family Tradition”

Smiley, Turkey, and Toastmasters
Last night, I met Mr. Clougherty for dinner. While Kings and Primanti’s were good options, I decided on Eat’n Park by Westmoreland Mall. Let me count the reasons why. Number one: It’s an easy ride for him and close to home. We used to meet at Kings in Delmont and sometimes in Murrysville back whenContinue reading “Smiley, Turkey, and Toastmasters”
Listening to @ana_eats_pgh on 100.7 STAR!

James the Food Slayer: Olive Garden
Last night Mr. Clougherty and I got together for our monthly dinner (aka The Dinner Series). We usually meet the last Thursday of every month but with Kevin going to the beach next week, we moved it up a week. Thus, I have the opportunity to attend Greensburg Night Market next week. Hopefully, the heatContinue reading “James the Food Slayer: Olive Garden”
Toasting With Style: Friday Fun Night
The first night of my first conference in person since 2019 is in the books. I arrived at my hotel just after 5 and took some time to relax after getting checked in.

The Pillars of my Blog!
With warm springlike weather forecast early this week, I took advantage of the downtime I had and spent some time outside. I made it out to Hempfield Park twice this week and took time to get some steps in. The end result is 1.5 miles both yesterday and today. Maybe a little more today butContinue reading “The Pillars of my Blog!”
