I have never been one to write much about beauty- my idea of nice products are the ones that come from the ‘fancy’ shelf at the drugstore (as opposed to those that come from the ‘regular’ shelf), but here I am- about to write a post all about my skincare. Why now? Well, a few […]
Madrid Open and Other Weekend Things
Hello, hello! Happy, happy Tuesday! (But not really…is it just me or is this week DRAGGING? It should be at least Thursday by now!). But anyway, enough about the week and let’s back up to the weekend. This weekend was strange in that I spent a lot of it alone, but I also did a […]
Restaurants in Madrid: NAP Madrid (Pizza) (10/10)
I have a love/ hate relationship with pizza. I LOVE good pizza- thin crust, fresh cheese, smooth sauce (and not too sweet), and good price. So where is the hate part? Before last weekend, I had yet to try good pizza in Madrid. The pizza usually has thick crust, strange toppings (tuna? corn? Why, Madrid, […]
Last April Weekend
Hello from the other side of the weekend! (How and why? I may never understand the speed at which the weekend moves. It’s unbelievable.) Also, how is it ALREADY May (well, soon)? When did this happen?! Anyways, I had a really good weekend so I wanted to share some of it with ya’ll and hope […]
Restaurants in Madrid: El Inti de Oro (8/10)
Sometimes it’s difficult to branch out of the usual tapas and drinks rotation that is so available (and delicious, obviously) in Madrid. Week after week, and day after day, we choose the restaurants and bars that serve up Spanish food with Spanish flavors. Spaniards don’t do much branching out when it comes to cuisine, but Madrid […]
Friday in Florida
Happy Friday, friends! I hope you have some fun weekend plans on the horizon! As for me, much of my weekend will be spent in transit. We will be making the 4 hour drive from Key West to Miami tomorrow, and then I have a nine hour flight back to Madrid overnight Saturday-Sunday. Fun stuff! […]
Bars in Madrid: Alimentación Quiroga (9/10)
Last week, Luis and I went on our weekly Sunday run and instead of just running for an hour, we broke it up with a stop for beer. All runs should be that way, no?! We ran into Huertas and stopped at Alimentación Quiroga, on Calle Huertas 19, which is a place I’ve seen many times, […]
Florida Bar Mitzvah Weekend
Hello! Happy Wednesday! I’m lucky enough to be writing to you from sunny Florida, where I’ve been for just over a week. The reason for this little getaway is that my second cousin, Hayden, had his Bar Mitzvah, so we made this the Florida Bar Mitzvah trip! Never heard of a Bar Mitzvah? Here is […]
The First Few Days in Florida
Hello, hello from sunny Florida! I flew down to Miami on Wednesday afternoon for a 10 day getaway with my parents. The reason for our trip is that my cousin is having his Bar Mitzvah, so we made a trip out of it and decided to spend 6 days here in Boynton Beach, Florida and […]
6 Days in Israel – Jerusalem – Part III
Just checking in now? Here is PART 1 and PART 2 of our trip. Our first full day in Jerusalem was all about exploring! Since we only had two days in Jerusalem, we wanted to hit the ground running and that’s exactly what we did. After breakfast in the Airbnb, we headed out and spent […]
