I’m dedicating this post to reminiscing on our weekend in CLT. A good friend of mine wanted to see Wicked and it was playing in CLT so we booked an Airbnb and a whole bunch of fun activities for two days. If you’re ever in the CLT area, I highly recommend checking out some or all of the spots tagged below:

My first stop on my CLT trip. If you’re into yummy vegan food this is a spot you’ll really appreciate. It came highly recommended from a friend. I got the wings and french fries. Lots of food, good vibes and vegan eats. If that’s your jam, I recommend a visit for sure.

Let me just say, I wish I had brought my camera because the aesthetic of this place was such a vibe. Felt like I stepped into a very instagramable fake France cafe. The coffee was delish and then there’s this….

@beatthebomb

Militaryish mission style group games, getting splashed with color and good ale at their bar, yes, please. If you love group games and want to run through lasers and get splashed with lots of color, this is your spot, it was such a vibe and the games were challenging and lots of fun.

So after all the shenanigans from the night before, we needed a coffee so we made a quick stop to @ameliesfrenchbakery for some yummy croissants and lattes. After that, we touched down @bathhousclt for a relaxing 2 hours of steam rooming, cold plunging, and sauna chilling. It was lovely! Well, the cold plunge was sweet sweet torture, but your body adjust and your skin is perfection after it’s all said and done.

To prepare for the main event, we grab some food at @moakorean. It was the yummiest spread of Korean food I’ve ever had. We ordered way too much food and indulged in way too many espresso martinis. Then it was off to see Wicked. Mind you, I never saw part two so the ending of this amazing play was all new to me and I loved every bit of it!!!. Thanks @blumenthalarts for the amazing production.

Okay, I almost forgot, one of these days we did visit @optimisthallclt it warmed my plant loving heart and the Ethiopian food was a vibe.

Shoutout to @paradiso.plantshop for all the plant love. One of my girls bought us two baby plants, we named them Ebony and Ivory. She thinks she’ll kill hers, lol. Possible, but I believe her. Who knows, I might kill mine. Only time and water or lack there of will tell, LOL.

Anyway, that was my weekend.

Till next time beautiful people.

Sincerely,
