Three Kings Public House

Karen & I went to a restaurant that prides itself on supporting Missouri & Illinois farms.  We went to Three Kings Public House in St. Louis.  Karen went before with her boyfriend and said she immediately knew I would love it.  And I did!


They even say on their menu their philosophy ensures they decrease their overall carbon footprint, while also providing their guests with the freshest produce picked at the peak of the season.  I love it even more because of that!


Karen and I found some lovely seats outside on the sidewalk, which was also wonderful because the restaurant is in the Loop and I love that area.  The have a great draft list so we both had a delicious beer.  Karen went with Odell Easy Street Wheat from Colorado and I went with Boulevard Tank 7 from Kansas City.  I did enjoy mine more, but I think we were both happy with the recommendations.


I had a portobello mushroom sandwich with some awesome sauce.  I have no idea what it was, but I know it was good.  And I had asparagus on the side.  I asked the waiter what the vegetable of the day was and as he went through the list of options I thought, 'Oh, asparagus is just in season... perfect.  I haven't had it yet this year.'  So I clearly picked asparagus.  Then he said, 'they got it off the farm this morning.'  Confirming my choice.  YUM!


They had a fun band starting to play towards the end of our meal and they seemed super fun too.


Basically, we had a great time!

Fall Fun!

We could not have asked for better fall weather this weekend.  70 degrees.  Sunny.  We just wanted to be outside the entire time.   We went for runs and decided we needed to spend even more time appreciating the fall foliage, which apparently will peak in two weeks.  So two more weeks to enjoy!  We checked out a new to us restaurant.   Then we took a trip to Grant's Farm, which neither one of us had been to since we were kids.  And neither one of us remembered.  Capping off another day spent outside. Monday I hopped on my bike to get to work and my body felt tired from the fun of the weekend.  I looked out my window at my desk and saw so many beautiful leaves, I took a photo on the walk back to where I park my bike. P.S. Yes, I got a new job!  Hooray!  A more detailed update is coming.

26 miles in 26 days

So the title isn`t exactly correct, but I ran a marathon yesterday and it was Melissa & my`s one month being here. But Caro helped me come up with the title and I thought it was catchy. So marathon #2 and a completely different experience than the one I ran last year in Chicago. Lisa Rottler Chamberlin is the name I ran the race with...I tried to sign up as Lisa Rottler, but it forced me to enter mom`s maiden name or i couldn`t continue with registration. the first difference I experienced this marathon in a very different way. In Chicago I was competitive I would say. It was on my mind since February of last year when I signed up. I was didigent about training and very serious about it. This year I signed up like 3 weeks ago and it was very last minute. Although, I ran like I was training for the marathon this summer in Chicago-that was 2 months ago. Last year the weekend of the marathon I rested. This year Friday night I went to my first quinceanera and got home at 4 a...

Lake Recap

Yep, it's recap time from the week my family and I spent at the Lake . My parents rented a house and a boat for our family for the week.  We were around mile 24 for those of you who've been there before. Dad, Mom, Jeff, Greta & Charlie all slept in the guest house so that meant... Karen & I had the whole main house to ourselves.  ;)  (If only we didn't disagree on the temperature so much. I like it warmer than her).   That might be a bit of an exaggeration.  We had the whole place to ourselves, unless someone wanted food, hang out in the living room, do laundry, etc. We pretty much relaxed the whole time we were there.   We were out on the boat at least once a day. Karen & I are ready for a day on the boat! We got in some tubing and skiing.  (No pictures exist of tubing, but it happened.  My scabs from the cloth burn just came off at the end of last week.  And just ask Karen.  She was sore.  We all were.) ...
