LIFE AND WHISKY

What We Are Write About Now

Links below to our current favorite topics.

Whisky (especially Scotch!)

For us, whisky is about savoring—not excess. It’s the flavor, craftsmanship, and stories in every pour that draw us in.

Local Reviews

Explore our reviews of local restaurants, from longtime neighborhood favorites to exciting new finds. We love discovering the people, flavors, and stories behind independent eateries—and supporting the small businesses that make every destination feel distinctive, delicious, and worth returning to.

Travel Tales

For the funny travel stories—rather than a traditional day-by-day trip recap—head this way. You’ll find the unexpected detours, questionable navigation decisions, travel mishaps, unforgettable characters, and the moments that made us laugh long after the trip ended.

Other Finds

Not every story fits neatly into a travel itinerary or restaurant review—and honestly, some of the best ones are too funny to ignore. This is where we share the random observations, everyday mishaps, questionable decisions, unexpected characters, and laugh-out-loud moments that deserve a spot on the blog simply because they made us smile.
