Lucky's bakehouse

There's this super sweet brand new bakery called Lucky's Bakehouse in Boulder that we've got quite a sweet spot for.
We've popped over a few times now and each time they seem to have more+more lovely treats.
And delicious ones too. They also offer GF goodies- including some really yummy cupcakes& cookies, they have Gelato, and marshmallows, and coffee.

The decor is simple but pretty, and Little Berry loves their colorful chairs. They have outdoor seating for the warmer days, and operate in what appears to be a converted garage, complete with garage door that opens into the store making it an indoor/outdoor space when the weather is nice. If you're over that way definitely check them out!
We recommend: the salted caramel brownie pie, the Chocolate Mint Pudding (made with fresh mint), GF lemon bars, handmade marshmallows (nom) and the hand spun cotton candy (which they won't sell you but happily serve you a sample of)- and from the Gelato case, the Salted Caramel Chocolate Chunk is divine.



Next door to Lucky's Bakehouse is the equally quaint Lucky's Market, where you can get your groceries, food from the deli, as well as buy local goodies if you are inclined. Both are very cute establishments and I promise you'll find yourself coming back again and again just because it's so pretty, the treats are tasty, and the groceries are convenient!

Lucky's Bakehouse is holding a fun Valentines Cookie Decorating Open House on February 10th from 2pm-4pm. The cost is $5/child for which they will receive 4 cookies (with option of Gluten Free) and can chose from available decorations to pretty up their 
cookies!

You can follow Lucky's Bakehouse on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram!

Hiking!

We went for a hike in Boulder at the very popular Chatauqua park- this was probably one of the busiest outdoor parks/hiking trails we've been on yet. It was an easy-moderate hike which Little Berry did just fine along side us except for a few spots where the trail was icy.
It was also very popular with dog owners, and since we had our dog Oreo along too there was much tail wagging&sniffing happening during the hike.
Boulder has an off leash dog tag you can purchase if you prove your dog is under voice command, but we always just stick with him on-leash as it seems safer than having to worry about something happening. Less fun for him I'm sure, but I think safety rules.
There was some tree climbing by Mr.T, and sunshine soaking by all of us.
