Eating Waffles By Myself

Sometimes I have mega-fails in New York. Like every time I get off the subway and have 0 sense of direction. #fail. Or basically every time I buy produce at Aldi. #fail. Last week I had a few errands to run downtown. I found the library fine, but then it all went downhill. I went to Gideon's Drugs on 37th where I heard they sell Zoya nail polish. I wanted to get some more colors for my weekly...

UGHHHHHH MY LIFE THIS WEEKEND. I am catching this on Sunday, July 3 FML.

Weekly Nail: Sunsetty

I am so disappointed in these photos but these nails were seriously IMPOSSIBLE to photograph. They kept blending whenever I made them brighter, so I just gave up.Anyway, did anyone get my Baby Mama reference? Tina Fey and Amy Poehler are my favorite power couple even though they aren't a couple.OH. And also Zoya is having a buy 3 get 3 free sale, which means that it's like $4 a bottle which is a GOOD...

250 Calorie Raspberry Breakfast Bars

Ok these are literally the best. I bake them at the beginning of the week, put them in the fridge, and eat one for breakfast almost every day! If I'm not eating these I'm eating shredded apple and yogurt (also the best).Anyway, I took the recipe from here and then tweaked it. Oh, and don't mind the lighting in my kitchen that is the absolute worst. In case you are wondering why I photograph everything...

Treat House

She was going crazy hahaha. So Jake was just standing in the middle of the sidewalk and not letting her sniff around as punishment lol. I don't think she really understood what was going on because she was crazy the whole time.Ok let's talk about Treat House. Yes, that is a table filled with rice krispies. Yes, those rice krispie treats are adorable. BUT YOU NEED TO GET THE COOKIE DOUGH ICE CREAM...

Weekend Happenings!

Goodmorning everybody! The past weekend we both had to work on Saturday which sucked, so we didn't get to explore as much as we usually do.On Friday night we got some good news, so to celebrate we went to Blockheads! We were dying because we were sitting inside and it was SO LOUD. Like, we thought that by sitting inside it would be quieter than on the street but noooo. If you follow me on Snapchat...

Lindsey Pengelly Inspired Hair Tutorial

If you read this title and were like, "who?" then STOP READING AND CLICK HERE. Is she not the babe to end all babes? Srsly. I am obsessed with her hair! She has extensions (obviously). I am always on and off about extensions. Some days I really think I should get them to have thicker braids. Other days, I like being able to tell people that my hair is all mine.I can't decide! I just don't like when...

A Happy List: 123

This dog never holds still lol.The lighting in my apartment is so weird. I swear to you.Like why do my braids have a blue tint?! I was supposed to hear back about a job early last week. I never heard back so I thought I didn't get it but I actually did!Taking Jake to Aldi for the first time. And also getting some yummy foods finally, like Nutella. Finally finding a place for my moody/film-y...

Weekly Nail Is Back

That's right! I'm bringing the weekly nail back because I miss it. Also, if you have tips on how to photograph nails please let me know. My nail photography is ghetto AF.I don't know if I ever talked about it here, but about 2 months ago I made the switch to natural nail polish. I got rid of all the nail polish I had accumulated over the years and bought 2 bottles of Zoya polish. I have been SO HAPPY...

Hot AF

These are the faces of 2 people who walked 20 minutes in Midtown in heavy clothing and HEAT AND HUMIDITY ONLY TO FIND OUT THEIR DESSERT PLACE WAS CLOSED.On the plus side, there was a kid our age on the bus who kept Snapchatting himself with his tongue out against the wall. But, he couldn't get it right so he kept deleting it and doing it again lol.XOXO- - - -...

Don't Murder Me Plz

Don't kill me for saying this but what is so special about Pinkberry? It just seemed regular to me.XOXO- - - -...

Having A Dog In New York City

I always assumed having a dog in New York would be so hard for the owners and so sad for the dogs. Now that we are babysitting this fool I have 100% changed my mind! Skip the rest of this if you don't care about dogs. (Lol.)You have to walk them more, so if you don't like walking your dog (more of a backyard person) then yeah, it's probably not the best choice for you. But, I love walking! There is...

Cupcake ATM

Ladies and gentlemen, I give to you, the cupcake ATM. For sure one of the best creations.On Sunday we walked the pup down to the ATM and got a cupcake. There is even a little camera that shows your cupcake being picked! Jake has been convinced that there is just an employee in there who goes and gets the cupcake after you order it, but I'm not convinced haha. This was the salted caramel and it...
