Las Vegas by Instagram

Hello again! I’m back home and officially fully recovered from my trip to Las Vegas. There was lots of drinking, lots of eating, a little gambling, little/lots of shopping, and a bit of pool lounging (in the hot hot heat). What a place! I had fun, but I am happy to be home. So is my liver. 😉 And stomach. Let’s just say that Las Vegas is not very diet friendly. I have never seen such huge portions in my life! I’ve been doing a little bit of detoxing, but I promise, we will be back to regularly scheduled programming soon, starting off with a delicious summer drink recipe. That detox didn’t last too long, did it?

See you soon friends! xoxo

PS. I’m happy to report that with the money Mickey made on the streets of Las Vegas, he has entered into a rehab program and is working hard to overcome his addiction. 😉

New York by Instagram

Dear Friends,

After six days in the Big Apple, I am home. I had a blast exploring the city with my BFF (thanks K!) and have decided that it would be impossible to ever experience boredom in NYC. Highlights included front row seats to Wicked on broadway, walking the Brooklyn Bridge, setting foot in Trader Joe’s for the first time (if only my suitcase had been bigger!) and catching some fabulous live music at the Rockwood Music Hall. Oh, and I saw a celebrity! Bill Pullman. I took a photo, but it was taken from so far away, you can barely make out his face. If you’ve never been to New York, get there in this lifetime. It’s worth the trip.

Here are (more than) a few snaps of what I got up to in the past week. I missed you and can’t wait to share a new recipe with you soon!

Love,

Amanda
