The Tastemaker Top 10 with Cait of Pretty & Fun

The Tastemaker Top 10 is a collection of 10 questions asked by me and answered by some of my favorite bloggers. Here they will tell you a little bit about themselves, their blogs, and of course, their favorite foods and restaurants. I've got fellow Chicago blogger Cait from Pretty & Fun on the blog today. As the name suggests, at Pretty & Fun Cait covers all things lovely in the world of fashion, design, and lifestyle, in general. I'm excited to introduce you to Cait today!

Name: Cait Weingartner

Blog: Pretty & Fun

Location: Chicago, IL

In a few sentences, tell us a little bit about your blog. A lifestyle blog centered around all things pretty and fun, from interior design and fashion to beauty and DIYs.

Now, tell us about your...

1. Favorite meal, food, or cuisine: Ice cream! Always.

2. Least favorite meal, food, or cuisine: Mushrooms. Blech. I just can't do it.

3. Favorite restaurant in your city: It's impossible to choose just one. Favorites include: brunch at Restaurant Beatrix, lunch at Blue Door Farm Stand, dinner at Gilt Bar and ice cream from Annette's.

4. Favorite restaurant outside of your city: Jack's Wife Freda in Soho is a must every time I'm in NYC.

5. Favorite guilty pleasure food: Most every type of fast food. I'm guilty of far too many drive-thru runs (Bojangles is a recent favorite!)

6. Favorite ingredient (something you love to cook with, or something you see on a menu and know you have to order): Garlic, lots and lots of garlic. I apologize in advance to anyone who comes in contact with me when I have garlic breath.

7. Favorite kitchen tool, utensil, product, etc.:  This isn't quite a kitchen tool but I'm not sure I could live without my Nespresso Pixie. I start every single day with a latte!

8. Favorite recipe: I make a killer cookie! They're a combination of oatmeal, chocolate chips and peanut butter.

9. Favorite thing about blogging: The community, hands down. Blogging has connected me to so many fantastic people over the past three and a half years and I'm forever grateful.

10. Five favorite blogs/blogs that A Squared readers should know about: Clark & Schiller, 312 Beauty, Charmingly Styled, Evann Clingan and Bows & Sequins


Thanks so much for your thoughts, Cait!
