Thanksgiving 2016: 10 Utah Restaurants Serving it Up Right
There’s nothing like a home-cooked meal on Thanksgiving, surrounded by family and friends. But when Grandma’s house isn’t exactly around the corner (and you just don’t feel like cooking), there are plenty of Utah restaurants willing to whip up a delicious Thanksgiving feast for you — and do the cleanup!
So if the only thing you’re planning on making for Thanksgiving dinner is reservations, you’re not alone. It’s estimated that close to 20 million Americans will be eating out this year, and another 33 million will use a restaurant to supplement their Thanksgiving meal (think freshly baked rolls and pies…yum!)
This year, be thankful for cozy fireplace bars pouring spiced cocktails, local bakeries offering the best holiday pies and restaurants serving both traditional and non-traditional Thanksgiving feasts. For a headache-free holiday, gather family and fries and head to one of these top rated Utah restaurants so you can sit back, relax, and enjoy the day!

Welcome, 2020! We made it through the first week of the New Year and are already excited for what’s to come in this brand new decade. Anything can happen, and we have so much to create! Whether you’re a fan of long-term resolutions or prefer setting smaller, short-term goals, it feels good to start the year off with a desire to change for the better. If you know us, you know our approach at Novation Title has always been goal-centric, not only within our business but in our personal lives and out in the community. In today’s world where we are constantly connected (and distracted), it’s no wonder that we increasingly find ourselves overwhelmed mentally and physically drained. Often, the issues in everyday life are the ones that prevent us from enjoying the very same everyday life! How can we balance this out? We believe we can do better. That is why we are introducing meditation into our workspace. While meditation has been practiced for over 5,000 years, it is increasingly becoming a necessary way for us to unplug from the modern world. But what, exactly, is it? Meditation is a practice where an individual uses a technique — such as mindfulness — to train attention and thoughts. Mindfulness is awareness, it is a state of peace. It is being in the present moment, intentional and serene. It is the process of being aware of your thoughts while also disconnecting from them so you can connect within. Connecting within is the highest form of intelligence and results in proven mental, emotional and spiritual health benefits. Here are just a few science-based benefits of meditation: Reduces blood pressure Increases serotonin production that improves mood and behavior Improves immune system Increase in energy levels Lessens stress and anxiety Increases happiness and creativity Clarity and peace of mind Increased memory retention and recall Enhances self-awareness and self-acceptance Each one of us, regardless of gender, age or other factors, undergo daily stress and tension at some level or the other. That’s why we’re so excited to introduce #NovationMeditation into our business and we encourage others to join us this year. We can ALL benefit from improved mental and physical health in 2020. Who’s with us?!
