Easy and budget-friendly vegan comfort food. The Surznick Common Room is co-written by Sarah and Nick, a couple of 20-somethings living in (and loving) Pittsburgh, PA. Their blog showcases DIY projects, delicious recipes, fun adventures, budget-friendly fashion, favorite reads and more while sticking to a post-college budget. By day Sarah works in human resources and Nick is a music teacher. When not working on their blog you can most often find them at a concert, enjoying happy hour with friends, or indulging in their latest Netflix obsession.
