Trophy Brewing & Pizza Company- Best pizza in town so far and definitely best pizza we've had in a long time. The atmosphere was super cool- very small, first come first served family style dining at the few high top tables that are available. The website gives you an idea of the menu options but the chalkboard that adorns a wall by the intimate dining area will give you all the details you need to order when you're there.
North Carolina Museum of Art- I've been wanting to get to more museums ever since we officially settled in to Raleigh but we've been bad about taking the time to plan a weekend around it. Then, a Champagne + Chocolate event came around at the NCMA and we decided to go check it out. What better way to prepare for Valentine's Day than by sampling local Chocolates and other sweet treats while Dan enjoys 2 glasses of champagne?!
I wish we'd had more freedom to roam the museum and view some of the permanent collection but we were mostly kept to a single area. We definitely want to get back and see some art but it was a neat way to see the museum at night and satisfy my sweet tooth by getting to know some of our local sweet shoppes.
We sampled from-
Carolina Confectionery Company (yummy toffee pictured above)
Edible Art Bakery and Dessert Cafe (chocolate covered shortbread in mini container above)
Sweet Traditions by LeAne - more Cookie Whoopies, please!
Iris, NCMA- the unique museum restaurant open only one night a week (mmm...macaroons!)
In baby news:
We are 16 weeks along- Baby T is about the size of an average turnip weighing in around 5 ounces and measuring about 5 inches. While my belly is busy finally starting to show signs of a baby, Dan has been busy getting the window seat I told you about under construction in the nursery...
Cool School has also been updated with some inspired activities for January and February- don't forget to check it out!
