What I Eat in a Day: Eating Vegan in NYC

I will confess…I love “What I Eat in a Day” videos/blogs. Curiosity makes an appearance when we think about what other people purchase, eat, or even wear. Humans get trapped into routines; we are all guilty of this. So being able to catch a glimpse into someone’s life is the best inspiration to breakout of typical habits. Recently, my cousins and I took a much needed trip into NYC. Since one of my cousins eats a plant-based diet, I became thrilled at the thought of all the food we would eat in the city.

Valentine’s Day Steep – DavidsTea Collection

I don’t know about you, but I have been loving the Valentine’s season this year! Loads of stores are on-point with special releases. Target’s “$1” section is a prime example: dusty rose, florals, and watercolors are painted across homegood and stationary items. It’s a dream!

Lemon Matcha Coconut Water Drink

Truth be told, I have craved healthy food my entire life; it’s just who I am. Don’t get me wrong, I never deprive myself of indulgences, but I really love my Kale t-shirt. Lately, I’ve been wanting to ramp-up my food game. My goal is to start incorporating even more plant based meals into my daily life.

Weekend in Boston

My first trip to Boston was exhilarating, historic, and joyous. But even so, I must admit…I am still a New York gal!

Sip of the Month – December 2016

December is always one of the best months of the year – the joy and happiness all around. It truly is a sight to see. With another month gone, brings another monthly favorite post. In December, the clear winner has been…

Favorite Winter Drink

Another Christmas over; a new year just beginning! I hope everyone had a fabulous holiday, and are indulging on all treats before it’s time to hit the re-start for those new year resolutions. If you are currently a gym lover, brace yourself for the dreaded over crowded January month – you have my my sympathies!

Merry Christmas Baubles

Sometimes you experience a blogging high, creating content and taking photos flawlessly, while other times you hit a rut. For me, the last three weeks were just that. So while I was frustrated that I wasn’t putting anything out, I told myself that it’s alight and just enjoy the Christmas holiday!

Three Days in New York

While this post is long overdue, I needed to make sure it went up so I remember the trips I have taken.

Is there anything better than days in the city – especially summer days?!? Walking around tall buildings with the buzzing street noise, there are countless explorations waiting to happen.

Cousin Love: Girls Day Extravaganza

There is nothing quite like a Girls Day spent with a lady you love dearly. Some grocery shopping, cooking, tea drinking and gossip all sums up to an excellent time spent with excellent company, must I say.

Time to Steep #18 – DavidsTea Halloween Collection

My typical routine: waking up early Sunday, heading over to Trader Joes, and then popping into my local DavidsTea to stock up (or enjoy a nice cuppa). Having an actual, in-store experience when purchasing my tea makes everything more enjoyable: the excitement that overcomes me as I see the store from afar, the casual stroll I take around the pre-packaged items, and the approach to the counter as I embark on my journey to sniff everything in sight. At the end of the day, not only do I get to buy any amount I desire when I go into a store, but I do not have to pay for shipping! When I saw that DavidsTea released teas for Halloween, I jumped online to check them out. I was about to parade myself towards the store, when I realied that two of teas were online exclusives. I decided to take the plunge and experience my first online purchase! My final cart consisted of 2oz of each Halloween tea (plus an additional 2oz of one type) and another order of Pom Cider because…#obsessed.
