Yum! Hummus & Pita Chips!

Hi Guys! I just found the healthiest and tastiest snack ever! Hummus and Pita chips. It is a quickie delicious snack that is perfect for any time you get a craving for something crunchy, and don't want to dig into the chip bag. You can either make your own hummus, or get my favorite...Athena Greek Hummus.

Travel Guide: Deception Pass

Hi My Loves!! I'm so sorry I've been gone for the past week. I've been SO busy preparing for this school year (freshmen yikes!). But I'll try to blog more frequently :). So, today's post is about a wonderful place that I recently visited! It is named: Deception Pass...right on the coast of Washington, near the San Juan Islands. It is such a beautiful place, and be sure to check out the beach also (Deception Pass Park), if you ever visit Washington.

Little Obsessions: Switched At Birth!

Hi All! I slept in SO long today. Anyway, I have found a new current obsession with the tv show: Switched At Birth! It's all about these 2 girls that were switched into different families from the moment they were born. It shows struggles, hard ships, and heartaches. It is definitely a great drama for ya'll who are searching for a new show. Definitely check it out on ABC, or Netflix for free streaming!

Mac Palettes!

Hi Loves! Today is a beautiful day here in the lovely Seattle :). I'm off to babysit in a couple hours!

So, for today's post, I decided to talk about Mac Palettes. A lot of you may know this, but you safe so much more $$ getting palettes rather than the single pots. If you do the math..Getting a 15 color eye palette vs. 15 mac pots can save you over $50! Plus, seeing all your eyeshadows in the same place is much more convenient :)

Little Obsessions: Apples & Peanut Butter!

Hi All! Today was a lovely day in Washington, but I stayed home and baked the whole entire day :). I love baking! So since I was so motivated to cook food, I realized that mid-way through my baking fanatic faze, I was getting hungry...Therefore, I found a great and yummy snack that I'm pretty sure I saw in a magazine before! It is cut up apples, dipped in peanut butter! YUM!

Beauty Tip: Drink Water!

Hi My Loves! I have arrived back in my home town...Seattle, WA :). The weather is beautiful here! But I miss my family in New York. :( Anyway, today's quick little beauty tip is to drink TONS of water. Studies show that you are supposedly supposed to drink 6-8 glasses of water a day! Which is insane, but extremely good for you. Since your body is made up of nearly 80% water, it is essential to stay hydrated. It also has so many beauty benefits! Those who drink water throughout the day - when you wake up, before breakfast, before lunch, before dinner, before you go to bed. That's what I am attempting to do! :) It also builds your complexion! (Yes! don't need a face brightener) it is such a healthy benefit, and beauty benefit! It clears up your acne, too! It's something I like to call free, and ''natural'' makeup!

This is my favorite water bottle! It has a built-in filter so the water tastes better, and is more healthy to drink out of!

Get Fit & Have Fun! :)

Hi LOVES! My time in New York is coming to an end...:( I'm gonna miss my family, but I sure do miss my beautiful room & bed. :)

Soooo..I just went on a refreshing bike ride down to the beach! It was so much fun to go with my family, and I think I'll be doing it again tomorrow. So my favorite activity to do when I need a workout is to bike! It is so much fun to ride around during the evening while the sun is setting, and just chatting with your friend. Or just ride to the park and have a picnic :)
