Last month, when my iPhone Upgrade Program came around to its full year, I debated on whether I should stay with an s model or upgrade to the 7+. I upgraded to the 7+ only for the dual lens. Why would I want to upgrade to a phone that is quite literally the size of my hand?Read More

During my last visit to Chicago, I went with two other people to Au Cheval for a burger. It was the usual two-hour wait and we made sure to fill up a little while waiting. Hangry Jenn is no fun. The part that stood out to me the most was the moment I ordered my food.Read More
