Winter has a funny way of making everything feel harder — the mornings feel colder, the days feel shorter, and the motivation to leave the house ultimately feels… negotiable.

Tala Turkey Trot 2025
This Thanksgiving marked our 5th annual Tala Turkey Trot, and a never-before-seen change of location! This year, we got to open up Highwood for the morning to have our coffee and doughnuts. A huge shoutout to Gurnee Donuts for providing us with an amazing and delicious assortment year after year. It was extremely cozy and a truly wonderful way to celebrate Thanksgiving morning together!
