Hey friends!
If you haven’t heard, I have been MIA for a few weeks because I adulted so hard and bought my first house!
So things have been chaos but they have finally settled down and I am all settled in. Just in time for my little sister gang to reunite!
My best friend flew in from Portland and my sister lives in Utah now so we reunited and it felt so gooooood. Imagine me singing that to you…
We have been exploring all over Utah. Coffee shops to Whiskey Bars to Ice Castles, you name it, we were trying it.
The three of us together is beyond outta control and I love it! I missed us so much.
Wanted to share all the amazing places we explored so the next time anyone visits Utah, you can have just as much fun as we did.
First stop, coffee:
Right before Mon got here, we found this cute AF Coffee Shop in Sandy, UT.
Meet The Bean Yard Coffee House
I had an Oat Milk Latte and Lo enjoyed a Sugar Free Vanilla Oat Milk Latte. They were delicious! Made so perfectly!
The vibe and atmosphere was charming and had this Portland vibe. Good music playing, lots of open space to sit and enjoy your drink or work remote!
Will definitely be coming back to try more coffee and their treats which looked AMAZING!
Next Stop: DOUGHNUTS
Doughnuts are one of my all time favorite carbs! I love me a good Doughnut and so we tried the North Carolina Famous, Duck Doughnuts.
Now this is not your average Doughnut Shop. This place has these amazing flavors to choose from such as: Maple Bacon and Blueberry Pancake (which were my favorite may I add).
Here is the kicker, they are MADE TO ORDER! So you never have to worry about them running out and they are warm and gooey when you receive them! I am making myself crave these as I write this!
They also had this amazing Winter Blend coffee which had end notes of Whiskey. It was bomb! They have locations all over, primarily the South East but if you are in Utah, we just got our very first location in South Jordan, UT! So if you are local or visiting, head over cause you do not want to miss this.
We are fueled so now it was time for the long drive over to Midway, UT.
Home of the Ice Castles!
I will start by saying it was absolutely freezing. I recommend wearing warm boots and pants that are thicker than leggings. My peacoat was fine but it was snowing so not the smartest choice. Looked cute AF though!
Once we got in, I was taken away at how intricate every detail of these sculptures were. These photos do not do it any justice.
The colors were showing through, blue mesmerizing Ice Castles. All in which you could walk through or slide down. I tried to crawl into some but it was too cold to be laying all over ice. I did have the courage to sit on this thrown… leaving my bum super icey, haha. You sit on a throne of Ice… Ice Queen? Sounds about right… haha.
If you bring your kids, they can take small plastic sleds down the slides. It was super cute to watch. There are so many photo opportunities too, and while the blue holds a pretty background, nothing compares to what this place is at night.
So if you do get tickets for this majestic venue, I highly recommend going at dark. It was so breathtaking to see, it cause none other than an Ice Cream craving! So off to Salt Lake City we went!
By way of recommendation, I finally tried this place. I introduce you to: NORMAL
Nestled in Trolly Square is an Ice Cream Truck that offers some unique flavors and toppings for you to tackle that Ice Cream crave! 
They have a storefront which offers a ton of variety but we decided to take a gander at their truck this weekend.
Their truck had four flavors to choose from and a handful of toppings. I went with Matcha Ice Cream sprinkled with Fruity Pebbles. Let me tell you… I found my new favorite Ice Cream combination. Who would have thought, match ice cream (which was vegan btw) topped with an old school favorite would be sooooooo yummy, but it was.
5 stars!
All of this food talk is making me hungry so I better get to steppin’! Hope you enjoyed this weeks adventures! We will be back soon with some cool stuff but for now, go check out these awesome places and stay tuned!
Happy Monday everyone, and remember, be kind, love each other and stay fearless ❤
