A Saturday With Mal

Mar 12, 2023/Blog

As a busy mom, wife and teacher I take my weekends very seriously! I want to make the most of the time I have with some family fun, some quality time with my hubby but also some me time! And I love that our city offers so many great options for me (and my fam) to do all of this!!

Check out my guide to a Saturday of family, food and fun with me the teacher mom!

A Saturday With Mal

  • 1. Local Barre Fitness
    My absolute happy place. Local Barre is a place where I feel so at home, a sense of calm . . . even though my heart rate is pumping! I love working out, dancing and having a good time so a space that combines all of these things into one is a dream come true for me. When I first attended a Local Barre class I was immediately hooked. The environment is what drew me in first. You are always greeted with such care and kindness and a smile. Always. There is a strong sense of community in this space as well. From the start of the class right until the end you feel connected to everyone in that room with you. You’re in this together whether it’s your first class or your 200th. On top of all of this, you are sure to have a great time. It’s workout that doesn’t even feel like a workout well, that is until the next day when your glutes, shoulders and abs are on FIRE but in the best way!

    Local Barre offers a variety of classes making it easy to something you love. There is truly a class for every Barre Star! For locals who love high intensity cardio or those want to barre but not so hard and everything in between, you’re sure to “find your beat”, have some fun and get a great workout. So grab yourself some grippy socks, a water bottle and meet me at the barre!

  • 2. The Everyday Kitchen
    There’s nothing better than starting your weekend with a coffee and a treat from The Everyday Kitchen (even after a workout! I truly believe calories don’t count on Saturdays!) Their new location, only a few short steps away from the previous location, is warm and beautiful. The same great atmosphere in a larger space. This is one of our favorite spots to go to as a family. My little girl’s eyes light up as soon as I say “Everyday Kitchen” but who am I kidding?? Mine do too! A little secret from me to you – Saturdays at Everyday Kitchen are BUSY! It is the one thing that we will get up early on a Saturday to do. We like to get there first thing in the morning to grab a box of donuts and enjoy a coffee, or kid’s hot chocolate for the little ones. The sourdough donuts are always so fresh and the seasonal flavors (and the classic ones) are so unique and always delicious.

    If waking up early on a Saturday to get down there isn’t an option for you, rest assured that you can always order online and pickup when you’re ready. I love this option! Especially if I have a busy day ahead. I order my donuts (even throw in a coffee too) and know that when I get there later in the day, I can skip the line, let one of the amazing staff members know I have an online order and they have it all ready to go for me. The only waiting required is for any coffees order as those are made fresh. It’s the sweetest set up!

  • 3. Bar Willow Eatery
    This holds a very special place in our hearts as a family. We have a lot of history here so it is definitely one of our favorite spots as a family. Bar Willow has it all. It’s a great space. It has great food and drink. And the view. Regardless of the season, the view from Bar Willow is always beautiful. In the summer it is one of my favorite patios in the city. The beautiful breeze off the lake on a sunny summer afternoon pairs perfectly with tapas or tacos and sangria on Bar Willow’s patio. And while nothing beats a cocktail in summer, Bar Willow makes sure that our craving for patio weather is still fulfilled in winter. I love that when winter hits I can trade in my iced drink for a warmer option and cozy up in the heated tent.

    Bar Willow is our go to for almost any occasion. It’s our favorite weekend brunch spot (definitely try the eggs benny!). After a walk or an afternoon of sledding we like to head in and enjoy some hot chocolate. And if you’re feeling adventurous, I highly recommend trying their specialty ‘Lights Out’ dinner. A special four course menu served to you completely in the dark. This is such an amazing experience. Your other senses will definitely be heightened, and your belt will probably need to be loosened! Regardless of the occasion, season or lighting situation, Bar Willow always serves up a wonderful meal and experience.

  • 4. Cathedral Social Hall
    The Cathedral Social Hall is my favorite place for a casual night out. Whether I’m with the girls or mom and dad’s night out, The Social Hall is my first pick. I love the atmosphere of The Hall. It’s open and spacious and yet it still gives off a very intimate vibe. It’s a great place to go when you want to get out of the house but without feeling pressure to get all dressed up and commit to a full evening out. What I love most about The Hall is its versatility. It’s the perfect place to grab a quick drink with a pal after work. But it also is great place to sit and hang out for hours. I love spending an evening in the summer catching up with friends on the patio. Those nights where you watch as the sun sets and find yourself still there gabbing away under the string lights and the stars. The food is great, whether you’re just wanting to share snacks or have a meal. There’s always a lot to choose from. The Social Hall has some of the best pizza in the city too and is home to Peaks Pizza found right in The Hall. I recommend trying The Queen Bee pizza. It is buzz-worthy for sure! You see what I did there 😉
