Discovering health, wellness and the little things in Chicago.
A few weeks back I shared on my Instagram how I bit the bullet and decided to invest in a Peloton bike. I asked you guys to send in some questions so I could write up a full post on why I ended up purchasing one (after 3 years of being a die hard SoulCycle fan), the reason why I love their classes so much, my favorite classes and instructors to take and so much more. With everything I share ...
If anything, this year has truly taught me the less makeup the better. My 6 skincare must-haves for summer days have been keeping me mentally sane and my skin looking rather clear.

But baby.. I’m back! I’ve got a few life updates to share, ...
Thank you for Fage for sponsoring this post. All thoughts, opinions and photos are my own. Thank you to brands like Fage for making Chickpea in The City possible. You guuuuys! Hi hi hi! It’s been a minute since I’ve posted any food to the blog and after a really long-winded January, I have so many things to share with you. Most importantly, today’s recipe. It takes less than 30 minutes to make ...
