Sur La Table Opens At 900 Shops
If you’ve got a passion for cooking or would potentially like to cook (like us), this feature is for you. We’re excited to help announce the opening of Sur La Table at 900 Shops! Since its beginnings in Seattle’s Pike Place Market in 1972, Sur La Table has believed that the kitchen is the center of the home. Each year, Sur La Table hosts over 120,000 students operating one of the largest avocational cooking schools nationwide. From essential basics to hard-to-find specialty tools and cookware, Sur La Table is sure to have something for every cook.
Classes focus on seasonal cuisine and technique-oriented courses. Skill levels range from beginner to advanced, with special sessions designed for kids and teens. In addition to Sur La Table’s Resident Chef, visiting chefs and restaurateurs also teach lessons. Classes range from 2 to 2.5 hours in length and include a tasting of all the dishes prepared. Last but not least, in case your boyfriend or hubby wants to do something special, private cooking lessons are available in all programs and can be customized for individuals or small groups. Be sure to keep up-to-date with Sur La Table on Twitter & Facebook.
The Return of the Jean Jacket
The perfect fitting jean jacket will never go out of style. Trust us, we have a great relationship with our jean jacket - it’s almost like a best friend status, it’s been there season after season. And although we don’t believe the jean jacket ever truly went away, this summer we can find various shapes and sizes across numerous retailers including Levi’s, Gap, and Madewell to name a few. Take a peak below at some of the styles we’re currently craving this season. Xo - GOLP
Statement Sandals For Your Summer Wardrobe
Let’s talk footwear: statement sandals. In case you don’t have a pair for your summer wardrobe, let’s find you some! Instead of opting for your standard flip flops or basic sandal, we’re loving everything from gladiators to chunky heels and straps. Below are just a few of our favorite finds ranging from Zara all the way to Shopbop. And of course Jeffrey Campbell makes several pairs that makes it quite hard to choose from! Happy Trotting! - GOLP
