Happy Monday friends! If you’ve been a long time follower of The GR Guide you’re probably familiar with these weekly 411 in the 616 posts. The truth is I took a little break from these posts to re-focus the content, and I’m excited to (finally) bring these posts back.
So here’s the deal with the 411 in the 616 – insight on new stuff happening in GR, some of my favorite things, a recap of what’s happening on the blog, and a local spotlight on other bloggers or businesses I’m currently loving. I hope you feel inspired or learn something new each week in these posts. Wishing you a wonderful start to the week!
What I’m Excited About This Week
Cory and I are doing a date night this Wednesday and I’m really excited. If you’re stuck on what to do for a date night this winter I’ve got you covered. Here are some great winter date ideas in Grand Rapids.
It’s National Chili Day this Thursday and I really want to try a new recipe. If you have a favorite recipe let me know and maybe I’ll share it on the blog.
Disney on Ice: Frozen is coming to Van Andel Arena February 28-March 3….I’m slightly obsessed with Frozen so maybe it’s the perfect excuse to take my nephew.
Things I’m Loving Right Now
I saw NEEDTOBREATHE at Fountain Street Church last weekend, and now I can’t stop listening to their music. This was my first time seeing them live and I was super impressed with their acoustic music. If you’re looking for something new to listen check them out on Spotify.
Before seeing NEEDTOBREATHE we had dinner at Leo’s and now I’m dreaming of when we can go back. If you love seafood and haven’t been to Leo’s yet you’re missing out. I love their oysters, rainbow trout and salmon!
National Margarita Day was the perfect excuse to grab our favorite margarita from Donkey last week. We love the classic flavor, but they have so many other delicious ones to try. What’s your favorite?
