 Where does the time go?
I wanted to write about this St. Louis tweet-up when it happened, but instead found myself swamped (in the best of all possible ways) with the holidays, travel and time with our (my fiance and my) families.
One of the highlights of all of that holiday craziness was the Christmas Eve meet-up [...]
Although I’ve not been writing much in the last two weeks, a lot has been happening behind the scenes of A Small Town Girl’s Guide. Today I’m excited to announce that Robust Wine Bar and Cafe is my official race sponsor for the St. Patrick’s Day Parade Run, a five-mile race that begins and ends [...]
Last week I gave a mid-morning holler on twitter to see if anyone was interested in a spontaneous after-work tweet-up. My week wasn’t going great, and I wanted to surround myself with conversation and good company. At 5:30, twitter friends began trickling into Growler’s Pub on Lindbergh in Sunset Hills, Missouri (a suburb in South County St. [...]
On Friday, May 13th, we’ll be holding another great St. Louis-area tweet-up. As with almost any tweet-up I organize, no RSVP is necessary, and the more the merrier.
South City, St. Louis is one of my favorite parts of the city. Cool red brick homes, hipster bars, and a real neighborhood feel prevail. Of course, there’s the intermittent [...]
Last night some very fun St. Louis twitter ladies gathered at Robust Wine Bar in Historic Webster Groves, Missouri, and I can’t rave enough about the restaurant, the wine or the service.
Robust is only one of two restaurants I’ve found in St. Louis that transported me back to New York City with its style, its [...]
On Saturday, March 13th, I ran my longest road race to date. The St. Patrick’s Day Parade Run in St. Louis is a 5-mile run that drew more than 11,000 runners this year, many of whom were decked out in their funkiest green and clovers for the race.
The crowds were so heavy at the start [...]
Since I live and work so far from St. Louis, I try to organize tweet-ups when I know I’ll be in or near the city and will have free time after work. Friday, February 12th was one of those days. Since everal St. Louis-area tweeps live in West County St. Louis or in St. Charles [...]
O’Fallon, Missouri isn’t exactly a small Missouri town, but in the nature of learning new things, I’ve decided to share a little bit about this not-so-small town.
What do I know about O’Fallon?
1. Established in 1856
2. Located in St. Charles County, just west of St. Louis
3. Home of the Celebration of Lights
4. Home to O’Fallon Beers
O’Fallon [...]
The latest St. Louis-area twitter meet-up took place on Tuesday night in O’Fallon, Missouri. A small group of hard core tweeps bundled up for the cool air and fought St. Louis rainy day traffic to walk through the Celebration of Lights.
@meghoulihan gave us the VIP walk-through, complete with behind-the-scenes stories about the display. The total tweet-up [...]
I’m still buzzing with energy from a speaking enegagement by @Jack Dorsey, co-founder/CEO/Creator of Twitter, this morning at Webster University (#jackatwebster) and a great lunchtime tweet-up (#jacknotatlunch) at Llwelyn’s Pub in Webster Groves.
Thanks to @sbolen and @michaeltomko for merging tweet-ups into one huge, successful #jacknotatlunch!
