I'm a big fan of Glow Worm Play Cafe. For so many reasons. Perhaps one of the most unacknowledged…read moreperks of Glow Worm is that it's attached to Staggeringly Delicious. One of the biggest misconceptions I've encountered in conversation about Glow Worm is that people don't realize that while being incredibly convenient for Glow Worm customers, Staggeringly Delicious is an entirely separate establishment. You don't need to be at the play cafe to get some of what truly is staggeringly delicious. The chocolate chip cookies, arguably the best in the city, seem to be one of the best kept secrets in Louisville. They're made with brown butter, triple chocolate, and topped with just the right amount of sea salt. I'm a big fan of blueberry and lemon desserts, but everything everyone else does, well...they just seems to do better. Their frittatas are phenomenal. It seems like pretzel buns are becoming more and more popular, but having them made fresh is just superior. The breakfast panini and turkey panini are crunchy, gooey, savory, and hit the spot every single time. Every time I order, I'm satisfied. It's consistent. It's affordable. I don't feel guilty when I eat there. I don't feel guilty when I feed it to my family. Sadly, that's becoming hard to come by. If you're near the Highlands and you're jonesing for a simple lunch or a treat, put this place on your radar. Don't be dissuaded by the play cafe sign out front. The play cafe is absolutely second-to-none, but you don't need a kid or play date to enjoy Staggeringly Delicious.

I had been able to try Sweets by Millie at an elite Yelp event two years ago and I finally thought…read moreit was time to order my own set of cookies for my sons first birthday. I was able to email my ideas to Maggie and it was easy enough, yes others may have a better set up but as a small business we have to not expect Amazon checkout. Now back to the adorable cookies, just loved the sweet bears, banners and party hats from Maggie and her staff. They were great party favors.

Life has changed. Life is different. I miss my favorite spots in Nulu…read more During the COVID-19 pandemic, I wanted to do something to support my favorite businesses, especially the ones in Nulu. Enter collaborations with some of my favorite businesses in the area. The one that caught my eye was a joint venture with Revelry, Nouvelle, and Sweets by Millie. Their special for this pandemic was a Wino & Dino gift set. You get a special bottle of wine from Nouvelle, a Dino succulent from Revelry, and 6 cupcakes from Sweets by Millie. This is my favorite thing from the pandemic right now. The sparkling bottle of rose from Nouvelle was elegant and beautiful. The dinosaur succulent is fun, whimsical and will continue to remind me of this sense of solace for as long as I can keep the plant alive. Finally, the cupcakes. Oh my goodness. These were out of this world amazing. 2 vanilla, 2 strawberry and 2 chocolate. If you want absolute perfection, these cupcakes are it. Thank you to Nouvelle, Revelry, and Sweets by Millie for making this time a little sweeter and being willing to collaborate. I may be ordering another set of cupcakes soon... no judgment zone, y'all.
