Even when she doesn’t quite understand what I’m doing (and I’ll be honest, a lot of the time I don’t even know what I’m doing), she’s right there cheering me on. some of the larger ones makes for great decorative pieces along the sides of the jar, and the smaller ones are great for the drainage you’re going to want to provide your plants. Because of the limited drainage and sealed contaner, there’s quite a bit of humidity within a terrarium, which in the end will kill your lovely succulent plants Not only will this be the perfect amount of water, but plants don’t like when their leaves get wet (so high maintenance, right?!), so this guarantees a happy plant.

As I mentioned, the new location is open for breakfast and  (read: ‘brinner,’) hours, with brinner being exactly what it sounds like. A server at the original Rise N Shine, through an undoubtedly interesting sequence of events, she began to help manage the location, and was left the business by the original owner when he passed. While her background was in fashion design, her story goes to show a creative mindset can be translated just about anywhere, and that is evident with the new, funky menu items she has introduced, as well as I went here back in March to try the Cookie Monster french toast, and trust me, the only disappointment was what I felt in myself for eating gluten and dairy while being highly allergic to both.

This includes treatments ranging from skin tightening, laser hair removal, to CoolSculpting fat reduction. I wanted to put myself in an environment where I was able to develop relationships with clients so I could provide the best possible care for them, a place where people were excited to come in, get treatments, and leave feeling more confident. All of our skin treatments are result oriented treatments that use medical grade procedures to promote collagen production. After enduring laser hair treatments on my face for many years (absolutely excruciating pain, I’d say 10x worse than any tattoo), I didn’t know what to expect.

While summer means endless Green Lakes trips, The Fair, Taste of Cuse, Amphitheater concerts and rosé, by far my favorite thing to take advantage of during these few short months is dining outdoors. With their new concert series bringing in big names like X Ambassadors (still one of the best concerts I’ve been to, yet) and Lord Huron, paint nights, and obviously all the fall fun, the cafe provides a ton of great meal and snacking options that you can never go wrong pairing with a hard cider or mixed drink. Great food, ✔️. Great location, ✔️✔️. I’ve been crushing just a bit on downtown Syracuse lately. Plus a few honorary nominations for hot spots on bucket list that I have heard nothing but great things about: What are your favorite places to get some fresh air, kick back w a cocktail and nom on some food?
