Redefining adventure one barstool and journey at a time.
"Hey babe, let's sit over here. These bar stools are going to give me an absolutely legendary Wafflebutt when we get up!"
What is Wafflebutt?
When you're wearing shorts, a skirt, skort, or swimsuit bottoms, and you sit on a chair, bench, or bar stool with that crisscross pattern that leaves a perfect waffle imprint on the backs of your thighs.
Sometimes I identify restaurants by the quality of the Wafflebutt they leave behind. If I can still feel the ridges with my fingertips after I stand up, that's a solid Wafflebutt. I'm oddly proud of it.
Honestly, I could probably identify random Wafflebutt impressions across the Greater Cincinnati and Dayton area by touch—like Braille.
Whether my Waffle is in a Hammock, Airplane, Sunset Cruise, Top Rated Restaurant, Seedy bar, or a Swanky Hotel - I'm Here to Take a Seat, Take it All In, & Give You a Full Report !
"Yep, you just ate at ...." It's that recognizable!
You might be here because you are creepy & you want to see what my Wafflebutts look like. I'm not mad at you, I like to look at my Wafflebutt, too.
If you are normal and maybe only slightly creepy, you are likely here to get an honest review of all of the places I go and get recommendations for your next date night, family vacation, or personal escape from reality.
I'm here for all of it and excited to tell you all of the things. And I know a lot of things because I eat it all, drink it all, and jump on planes more often than I should. But why not ? Your waffle is only cute and mobile for so long !
Why are you here?
I am a girl who uses food, drink, & travel as carrots for celebratory experiences. If a new restaurant opens in town, I want to be at the soft opening. If a plane flight can take me to "the best" whatever it is "in the world" - I want to go to there. If an establishment serves the most amazing drink or dish - I am running to Open Table for the soonest reservation.
If it's a fancy prefixe dining experience with descriptive words I don't understand - sign me up.
And if a secret password is necessary to obtain entry - best believe I will be finding out what it is.
Sometimes I'm alone, but I love nothng more than discovering new, awesome things and then sharing them with my friends and family !
But maybe I should keep them secrets ? Nah, it's not like this is going to be some global phenomenon and everyone is going to be blowing up all my favorite places and then I'm going to have to wait to get in even though I'm VIP in my mind (I said that in my Anna Delvey voice). But then honestly if my Wafflebutt gets me on TV and I get to meet some peeps like JC Chasez from Nsync, or Craig David, or Kenny Chesney, or Britney Spears, or Justin Bieber... that'd be neat. Mostly, I want Websters to add Wafflebutt to the dictionary. Speaking of dictionaries... if you Urban Dictionary Waffle Butt, you will laugh.
I like skymiles, travel perks, and points. I like simple things and over the top things and everything in between. I like airport lounges and getting international early so we can get the party started - even that means sprinting to a short layover (sorry, not sorry if it's humanly possible and the interwebs let me click the buttons). I like when I make recommendations or buy gift cards for people to places and they're like "That was so dope" and I'm like "I know". Then I secretly hope they tell other people like "Oh this super awesome (and good looking) girl Niki told me about this place and I went and it was 'fire' and you should go". And the daily life motivation quotes are like "Build a legacy" and I'm like... I'm not sure if that's what people are actually saying, but I pretend it is and they might, so that's my legacy. Because I'm pretty sure all of the things I say are awesome will continue to be awesome until global warming melts the poles to where those places disappear. So I'll be a legacy for at least 1.5 lifetimes, I think.
I have homes in the US Virgin Islands & Madeira Beach, Florida as well. I would say I'd wrestle someone if they told me somewhere on the planet was better than St John, but I'm grown and sophisticated now AND why would I wrestle someone who is just stupid and wrong ? And Madeira Beach is next level awesome ! It's like a convergance of people that are like mehhh Indian Rocks is too fancy and St Pete Beach is too Fancy and Treasure Island is too far from Dockside Daves. SO Madeira because obviously we like to go to the fancy places, we just don't always have sun hats that actually fit our heads tiny dogs to tote along with us to quite fit in.
When I'm not selling real estate or travelling, I enjoy riding my bicycle, watching the Cincinnati Bengals, getting roasted by my 12 year old, & trying to make my husband happy while also trying to avoid most adult responsibilities.
Hi I'm Niki!
My reason for Wafflebutting?
Duh, because I'm The Wafflebutt ! I like to sit in all the seats of all the places, and they may not all leave a a temporary imprint on my thighs - but the people I meet and the travels I've had all have a place in my heart & soul. I like to capture my food dishes, my fancy drinks, & my wild excursions then post positive reviews for every place I go. From parasailing and boats, to restaurants & bars, to parks & beaches, I'm getting Wafflebutt more than you are getting... I don't know. But where I was going with that was funny.
