Pray For Parkland

Hello Lovelies,

SO… I’ve been really busy! Apologies for not posting in a week! My current daily routine includes class/studying, working out (Every Day! Woo!), Stella, and cooking (not eating out so much anymore).

I hope you all had a wonderful Valentine’s Day and it reminded you that you are extremely loved!

Whether it be by family and friends, a boyfriend, a Furiend, or all above. It’s amazing what a little love note can do! Thank you to my three sisters I love dearly & my Mom and Dad.

Yesterday, a tragic shooting happened very close to home. 17 people dead, one of them who had planned to attend the same university I just graduated from last Spring. My broken heart goes out to those who are mourning; the whole nation feels your pain. I have cried multiple times since the incident.

I hope this brings more awareness about mental health and adjusts the Second Amendment.

I’m a firm believer that Americans should be able to protect themselves.

I do not know the right answer, but I just hope America finds a solution. We cannot turn our heads and let this happen again.

The Galentine Pancakes

Celebrate your friends this Valentine’s Day by making these Pink Chocolate Chip Pancakes!

Ingredients:

2 Bananas (Mashed)

2 Eggs

1/2 Cup of Oats

1 Tsp Vanilla

Dark Chocolate Chips (Truth: I didn’t measure)

Pink Food Coloring (Tiny drop)!

*Tip: Very important! Cook these over low-medium heat to avoid burnt pancakes. Also, it helps to run a small silicone spatula, first, to shape the pancake but keep going around the pancake. This will make flipping much easier!

This batter should make about 6-8 regular sized pancakes. I burnt two in the process… I’m only human, but make sure you follow my tips given.

Kiddos would love these too, however, we’re talking Galentine’s.

So serve with your favorite maple syrup and glass of Rosé!

Hope you enjoy making these. That’s it for now- Happy Valentine’s Day month!

Valentine’s Day Gift Guide!

Salt Therapy

Hi Lovelies!

“Our health is SO Important”

With that being said, would you ever consider salt therapy? Well, a few summers ago I purchased a Groupon and tried it for the first time. 

The concept sounds and looks strange (sitting in a dark room surrounded by salt), but the healing benefits of Salt Therapy are endless!

Great for the following:

-Allergies

-Asthma

-Breathing Issues/ Chest Tightness

-Bronchitis

Cold/Flu Prevention

-COPD

-Ear Infections

-Eczema

-Hay Fever

-Psoriasis

-Sinus Inflammation

-Smoker’s Cough

-Snoring (May want to send your significant other! Ha)

-Stress & Fatigue

-Wheezing

Told you the benefits were endless, and note, I put Cold/Flu prevention in BOLD lettering. This year, 2018, seems to be one of the most deadliest and scariest flu seasons.  Both my mom and little sister experienced it. Maybe this could help people like myself who have not gotten it… (*Knock on Wood*) yet!

Other than for that reason, I personally do not have any of the issues above that it cures.

Salt Therapy would help heal my little sister with eczema, my family members who snore (you know who you are!), and my friends who have allergies/asthma.

So, if you have never tried Salt Therapy, I suggest giving it a go! You may find that you love it.

As for now, I’m sticking to the beautiful Florida beaches for free!

These lovelies will pair great with a black turtleneck & tailored pants, LBDs, Skirts, and Jeans. Anything… Really!

That’s it for now.

Bunnie Cakes Studio Emoji Cupcake Workshop

I enjoyed a fun, eventful weekend filled with laughter & cupcakes! My friend and I thought it would be fun to try one of Bunnie Cakes’ new workshops they hold on the weekend.

First, let me tell you a little bit about this Bunnie Cakes.

It is a vegan, optional Gluten-Free, and certified Kosher bakery in the Wynwood, Miami area.

Owner and Founder, Mariana Cortez, of Bunnie Cakes got into the baking industry when she could not find a non-dairy Birthday cake for her son who is allergic. Long story short, she was not successful in finding this cake, so she knew she must create it herself. She begun in her kitchen then quickly gained a following!

Her cupcakes, now, are available in Starbucks and Whole Foods in the Miami metropolitan area, and of course! Her adorable bakery close to Wynwood.

Our DIY Emoji cupcakes did not come out perfect, however we shared lots of laughter. Definitely, a treasurable memory with one of my best friends.

I hope I inspired you to go to a workshop or just stop by the bakery for one of their mini cupcakes when you travel to Miami. It’s definitely a fun activity for all ages!
