30's The New 20...

Dear Blog Readers,

Sorry it’s been so long since my last post (10 days)! If you’re following along then you already know that I was on vacation (Miami Beach).

So let me fill you in on what had been going on in my life over the last week or so…

Miami:

Last Thursday night we landed in Miami and I couldn’t be happier! We spent the days on the beach roaming the streets and taking in the sights. Actually we went to Miami last year but it’s always great to be on vacation. We eat great foods and I (Miss Weight Watchers) had ice cream and cheesy tacos and might I add, enjoyed every moment of it…

On the beach I read (The Castaways which is a great beach book) and collected seashells. I got a great tan which later turned into sun burn (something to do with falling asleep on the beach (a minor technicality) but I really didn’t care I had a blast and to be honest would have been happy to stay another week.








Back To Reality: 
So I had Monday off to recoup from our trip, I did some home work and then pretty much slept the rest of the day…

Back at the office nothing had changed… same people, same drama though to be honest it’s really starting to not matter to me anymore… I have more important things going on in my life to worry about what catty thing my co-workers will attempt to do to me next so I’m moving on!!!

Oh here’s a tid-bit of info for you… I’m going back on vacation in about a week!! I haven’t seen my family in over 2 years and so in a week I will be off to see them, I can hardly contain myself!  All my nieces and nephews are so much bigger and I haven’t even met 2 of them (born last year) so this will be a wonderful trip!! 

Also I’m turning 30 in 2 days and am really not sure how I feel about it though yesterday my Mom told me that “What matters is how I feel inside, if I feel young then I am young”, and my response was “You know, they say 30 is the new 20!” and she just laughed!

Girl In The City...

So I haven’t blogged in a while because of school, vacation and a few other things going on. July 4th weekend was long and really great! I hated going back to work but here’s the good news I’m headed to the beach this weekend and even better, I’m going to Miami the following weekend so its beach overload for me this summer but honestly is there really anything better than the beach!!

So this week I really need to get back to blogging and mainly I need to cover some fashion topics because there’s so many new styles out there right now and some great trends that I’ve seen over the past few weeks. Also I can’t wait to hit the streets in Miami and see the trends out there! I actually might see if I can get into Miami fashion week next year, it’s March 21-24 and I actually know a PR girl who invited me this year but I wasn’t able to make it. Fingers crossed that I can go next year!

This week has been rough going back to work but I have one more day and then a three day weekend. I’ve recently started riding my bike and getting some great exercise in, I rode for an hour last night and got a bit of a tan so now I look extra cute! LOL!

I’m a big Netflix’s fan and I’m catching up on all the old seasons of The City! I love it and its helping me get back on focus for my blogging because the reason I started blogging was because 1.) I love to write and 2.) I love fashion and wanted to express that to the world! It’s also making me want to take another trip to NYC soon!

What am I doing right now:  Checking out some sites that I haven’t had an opportunity to look at yet but have heard rave reviews about: The first is Seaofshoes.com and the second is fashionologie.com

 
So in the spirit of  FTLOB’s Thursday blog hop, here is a super yummy summer drink which I actually found over at Natural Noshing, a great site for health and fitness!

Banana Buddy Shake: Serves 1

Ingredients:

1 ripe banana
1 cup of non-dairy milk (I used vanilla almond milk or rice milk but cow’s is fine too)
1 1/2 Tbsp unsalted peanut butter (any nut or seed butter will work here)
1/2 tsp gluten free vanilla extract
1/2 tsp ground flaxseed (optional but provides a good source of Omega-3s)
pinch of sea salt, optional but so yummy!
dash of cinnamon (plus more for sprinkling on top, if desired)

Directions
1. Place all ingredients in a blender and mix until combined. Drink and enjoy!
