A little about Foodie Fun and More

I am a self-professed foodie at heart, love to eat out whenever I have the opportunity! I have recently relocated to Northern Minnesota from the Seattle area and will be reviewing restaurants and recipes I get the opportunity to try on my adventures in the Midwest and beyond.

I have no culinary training and most will say that I am a very picky eater. I'm not a fan of vegetables, love my sushi, adore a wonderful filet mignon and snow crab is to die for - although that may be hard to come by here in the North Woods. As my adventure continues, you'll see my palate ranges from comfort foods to gourmet and I will let you know how the service was, how the food was and if the prices were spendy or reasonable. I am a foodie who has no qualms about paying more for a good meal ... for a good meal that is... not a mediocre one. I am happy to share information on your restaurant here if you desire me to or if you want me to try your restaurant and I have not yet.

I prefer smaller restaurants that are 'undiscovered' and if they resemble something I would have seen in Seattle, all the better. But for me, it's the service that makes the meal sometimes... or breaks it.

So follow me on my adventures in dining in Northern Minnesota and beyond.

Seaport Salon and Day Spa - Silverdale

Last week I visited the Seaport Salon and Day Spa for the first time and wanted to share my experiences here because the staff was quite wonderful to me.

On my first visit, I went for just a 60 minute massage. If you haven't had a massage before, I must explain that the relaxation you will receive is incredible. I always get a swedish massage which is just for relaxation and not deep tissue (which I find to be a bit painful sometimes). I felt comfortable, relaxed and at ease the entire time with the practitioner and will return for this service. It is reasonably priced and you are made to feel very pampered.... a wonderful experience and fantastic reward for anyone.

On my second visit, I received a cut and color and the treatment was no different. Little nuances to make me feel pampered. I received a hand massage while waiting for my color to finish processing, a warm towel under my head on the wash bowl, tea/water to drink, pleasant conversation. The services themselves are not overpriced at all and I found all of the staff to be people I would want to work with again.

I highly recommend this salon/day spa to anyone searching for a new spa as I have been for some time now.
