Hallows Eve

Halloween 09

Halloween 09
This pictures where taken at The Central Park Pumpkin Festival in 2009, unfortunately I wasn't able to attend to the 2010 I don't remember why, but this year believe it or not it was actually snowing here in New York City plus Mani was sick with the flu so sadly we weren't able to attend again. On Saturday we went to the mall with our friends to grab lunch at Applebee's and then to Best Buy to buy the new season of Robot Chicken and my Sims 3 Pet's copy.

Boo earrings :)

Halloween colors :)

Halloween spirit mood!
 Yesterday I decide to get my Halloween inspired nails to go with my boo earrings that I wore at work today, sadly I didn't get to buy a custom for me or my dog or go trick or treating today. I hope next year I plan things how they are suppose to be and not leave everything at last minute, while I'm writing this I got the feeling that I'm getting a sore throat so I'm not surprise that I'm getting sick too. I hope everybody had a great Happy Halloween!

I never been a huge fan of Kristen Stewart, but I kind of always liked her edgy tomboy style besides her amazing work at the Twilight series and The Runaways that made her a very well known artist. So, when I saw her British cover for GQ magazine at the beginning of the month and the following week her U.S Glamour cover I was completely amaze about her beauty. I had the opportunity to read her magazine interview by the writer of  The Twilight Series books Stefanie Meyer and Kristen seems to be a very down to earth person and very mature for her age, she's also a very inspiring and passionate about her work which I really like. Here I leave you with pictures of her Glamour photoshoot and a little video interview. Enjoy!

Flushing Meadows Park Lake

Yesterday it was a beautiful day, we had a perfect 85 °F degrees outside to be exactly which I was kind of surprise. I was soo happy that I woke up Mani early so we take our Spunky to the park before it gets colder since he's extremely sensitive to really high and really low temperatures  (yes, he's a really complicated dog) and of course to hang out in my favorite park. So, we couldn't let this opportunity pass.

Before I started deciding what I was going to wear I already had this outfit on mind, I bought this dress a while ago and I was waiting for the perfect moment to wear it. I paired with my favorite moccasin, a headband and a necklace to make it simple for this warm weather, Spunky was soo excited to go to the park, we haven't been here in a while ( at least for 2 years) I know... I know this is my favorite park but, the reason was that we were living in a different place before so it was too far for us to come here on the weekends or whenever we wanted to.

After spending a beautiful afternoon at the park on our way home we decided to stop by our favorite Italian ice place called: " The Lemon Ice King of Corona" and grab some Italian ice, it was delicious! If you ever want to try them in my opinion this is the official place, they have over 30 different flavors which is crazy! Saying good bye to the summer makes me sad, i'm going to miss days these like this one when you wear a dress bare legs and eat some ice cream. So, I guess this is a last goodbye to Summer and hello again to Autumn, I hope everybody have a nice Columbus Day!

I can't believe that October is already here! I'm so excited that my birthday is only two days away, sadly I'm no going to have a big celebration of it now because this month i'm going to be really busy (planning my Comic Con trip and other things). Autumn is one of my favorite seasons. I'm really looking forward to wearing tights, getting warms drinks, pumpkin picking, the pumpkin festival and eating my favorite dessert pumpkin pie. Here I leave you with some things that are inspiring me this season.

Strawberries with JELL- O

IMG_0323

Today i'm sharing one of my favorite family's recipe, it actually never had a name, well not that I remember, but I called " Strawberries with JELL- O". This has been my Family's recipe for years, since I was a little girl I always used to see my grandmother and my aunts make this dessert for special occasions, specially for birthday parties. I know is nothing out of this world but I grew up eating this at everybody's birthday party in my house and it became one of my favorite desserts. So, today I decided to share this special recipe with you girls. I hope you all enjoy it!

Makes for 16 servings.


Ingredients:

  • 1 Pack of Strawberries.
  • 1 Box of Gelatin JELL- O strawberry flavor ( 6 onz.).
  • Original Wip cream ( any brand).
JELL- O:

  • 2 Cups of boil water.
  • 1 and 1/2 cup of cold water.

Wash all the pack of strawberries and leave them in clean water for a couple of minutes, this will help remove all the dirt that comes in it until you gather together all the ingredients that you need.

Remove all the water and place them in a wood board to cut all the strawberries in thin lines (like the picture above), this will help when we put them flat on the aluminium foil.

They should look like this when you finish :)

Cloudy Day

Yesterday we had a blast! If you follow me on twitter you know what i'm talking about. Me and the boys had a once in a lifetime opportunity to attend to a SOLD OUT! reschedule Black Eyed Peas Concert for a good cause. Yes, Black Eyed Peas partnered with Robin Hood Foundation to raise money to help fight poverty in New York City. Over sixty thousand people attended this amazing! concert collecting over four million dollars in donations. How cool is that?! This was such a wonderful experience, I don't have words to describe how incredible! this concert was. I been a Black Eyed Peas fan for a long time (since I was 14!) and this was an unforgettable lifetime experience.

The rain came at the best time of the night, just when they were performing one of their first song called
" Where's the love" I was singing so loud that I literally tough that I was going to lose my voice and since it was raining really hard I though I was also going to get sick, but I didn't care I keep dancing and singing in the rain until the concert ended. After the concert me and my husband went to eat Mexican food and then we went home.

Cloudy Day
Thankfully I didn't get sick, but when I woke up the next day I saw that it was kind of cold and cloudy. So I was debating whether I should go out and take some outfit pictures or not, at the end I decide to take the risk. I though this outfit was perfect for a day like this, a sweater with leggings comfortable enough to spend the Saturday at the mall with my husband Mani, his best friend Dario and my bestie Carla. Like we always do we end up like any other Saturday at Dallas BBQ with the rest of our friends celebrating George's birthday.
