Thankful Day & A Winner!


Happy Thanksgiving to all of my American friends! I'm heading out to Long Island today to spend the day with my family. I've tried my best to detox from this past weekend's festivities and I think I'm ready to take on my 2nd Thanksgiving in less than 5 days. Wish me luck :)

I'm such a fortunate girl and I have so much to truly be grateful for including:
  • J, my eternal love and soulmate
  • My family, for always being there
  • My friends, for knowing me better than I know myself
  • My health and the health of my loved ones. Unfortunately there is someone extremely close to me who could use a little help in that department but nonetheless I'm still grateful for having him in my life and for every second I get to spend with him.
  • My job, I'm a very lucky girl to gets paid to do what I love to do.
  • Vacations! Including the 10 day one that I leave for tomorrow morning!
What are you all thankful for this year?

And lastly before I leave, I wanted to announce the winner of the MD Perricone Giveaway.


Congrats, darling! I'll be contacting you with further details. And thanks to all who entered!

Have a wonderful day, lovelies!

Wakeup & Smell The Roses!


Good Monday morning, lovelies! Yup it's that time again. Time to get up and face the week. Luckily for me it's a short week. Only 3 days of work, then it's Thanksgiving followed by vacation. Yes, on Friday I will be soaking up the sun and frolicking in the gorgeous Caribbean Sea. I can't wait!

This weekend was nice. Filled with lots of family time and lots of eating. We hosted Thanksgiving dinner for J's family yesterday which was great but I'm still exhausted this morning. Too much eating and not much rest at all. It's ok though. I'm ready to face this short week head on :)

Hope you all had a wonderful weekend. What did you all do?

Have A Reflective Weekend


Happy Friday, everyone! What do you all have on tap this weekend? Ideally I would love to have a leisurely, relaxing, reflective weekend but that's not my reality this weekend. I'm hosting Thanksgiving for J's family on Sunday and our nephew who's in college is coming to stay at our apartment Saturday night so it's work, work, work all weekend long.

No complaints though. It'll be well worth it to spend time with family and to eat some delicious food. Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday and this year I'll get to eat the meal twice! Once with J's family and then with mine on Thursday. Lucky me! I might not be feeling too lucky on Friday though when I have to get into a bathing suit on vacation. Oh well, it's a time to be plentiful, right? :)

Have a fabulous weekend!
