Twisted

Ever feel like something is pull you around and won't let you go on with life. Sometimes I think about my problems but than I realize they seem meaningless when we widen our view.  I examine future prospects and  try to become more understanding and practice patience.

I'm not one to be shy about the type of food I enjoy and it helps to have wonderful company. On Saturday, I had to check out this spot called Twisted Fork. My group ordered lots of appetizers and fruity cocktails. The best things, was the mushroom dip and chicken fried bacon. Yeah, it's deep fried bacon served with a side of gravy. It's even better than I expected. Enjoy all the food porn! *drools*







I'm never really in front of a computer since I've finished school. I went out of town and now I'm going to New York at the end of the month! I've never been so give me a few tips for a first timer. Thanks!

Explain It To Me

Good day, it's been a rather rough week. So much terror, I knew that so many people felt scared. My heart really does go out to Boston.  Also the explosion in Texas, made shocked waves.  Thankfully, we all can breathe better this weekend. Monday, is a brand new start for everyone. I'm so in awe of those that stand strong and continue to live life.

It was such a carefree and fun weekend. I'm still waiting for spring. It's been lots of rainfall and chilly nights. I've tried to put on a smile but I want to wear bright dress and sandals.

1. Finding this medium size bag at Marshalls, it was a steal and reminded me of a certain designer bag that fancy bloggers like to carry.


2. Glitter tip manicure. pssh, that's not an engagement ring. I'm quite confuse as to why everyone thinks it's one, just because I like to wear it on my left hand.


3. Drinking a classic Shirley Temple, I'm never too old to order one.


4. Do I even need to explain? I've jumped onto the whole frozen yogurt trend.


5. Discovering a new bands. I saw Nice & Pretty and Jukebox The Ghost last Friday. You all need to check them out. They sang a cover a song of "That Thing You Do."

Two Love

There some days I'm in love with winter. It hard to describe how I feel when the skies are gray and light snow is falling. Also it helps to be driven around in style. These glorious winter nights are slowly fading, last week I had small taste of spring that I even wore ballet flats.

Then this past Friday, winter reminded me that I have to wait another month for spring. It started while I was out eating with friends. Beautiful, fluffy snowflakes were falling down. It all looked magical. When leaving the restaurant we all gathered into my dream car, a small red BMW. (It's not mine, it belongs to my friend). I headed out to deal with the snow, we ate and than partied at local bar. Overall, it was such an amazing night!

Yum! Crepes for dinner. I order pork one from the newest European style restaurant called The Corner Creperie. I really enjoy the full coffee bar also. I'm always in the mood for a light vanilla latte. I'll be back again!


 Now, I'm afraid I have to endure another snowmargeddon. #midwestgirlsproblems

Brrrrrr

It's been a long and cold week! I've been staying home, reading and catching up on a few of my favorite TV shows. The winter time, for myself, is quite hard. I dread going outside, unless I have four or more layers of clothes. I'm currently on the hunt for a new black boots and more faux fur items. Lusting over few items over on pinterest.

 Also I find myself indulging all sorts of cravings, mostly food. Nothing fancy, just a simple plate with a satisfying beverage. This week had some highlights, such as Irish Coffee at reverse happy hour a local pub. Also checkout a new Central American restaurant. It's my ideal comfort food. Reminded me of how much I miss Panama!








 This bakery gives out free bread slices. I'm there at least once a week. I'm not ashamed, also they have cheap coffee.




Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment. XOXO

Blatt

Nom NOm. I'm dying to have an another try at this sort of new restaurant in Omaha called Blatt. I'm a fan of simple and they have quaintest menu. Inside is intimate seating with two giant flat screens, that guess they must have to show off to all the sports fans, especially when you're near a big baseball stadium. It's sort of the vibe where lots of college professionals and frats hang out.

I picked a few appetizers to pick at while we waited for some friends. I just adore the printed menu.



Yummy mixed appetizer with naan and deli meats and cheese.


Best Mac and Cheese in Omaha. It's quickly becoming my new favorite comfort food. I was so excited that I couldn't stop shaking the camera. My friends kept on picking at my plate. It had the cheese slightly burnt crucnhy on the side and the pasta cooked so perfectly.


Next time, that I'm near the area. I'll pop inside for a cold drink and a bowl of cheesy goodness. Thanks for reading darlings!

ps. What's your comfort food of choice? Let's not forget to indulge your senses every once in awhile.

Feast For All

Yeah, I'm back and so exhausted but Thanksgiving is this Thursday,  in the US. I'm a big fan of any day that cancels out work and school. Just so I can stay home and eat a beautiful meal with friends and family. This year, I'm planning a different tradition.

Instead of pigging out over at my grandma's house; I will spend the day with friends. I know that are currently living far from family and we want to throw our own feast. I'm searching the internet for a few recipes to try out. Thank goodness for pinterest! Just a few new ideas are below. All of them take you to my pinterest page and you can find the original links.

Tell me or, even better, send me a link to your favorite holiday dish. Thanks loves for all your kind words.

Brunch At Jackson

I thought it was going to be a boring fall weekend but it did not disappoint. The sky cleared up and it was so beautiful. I'm going to quite sad when winter starts to show up. I saw a certain young fellow, but I prefer to be silent about what happen. Instead, I will sort through some thoughts about the president debate and  my course work.

Also I'm constantly giving away details about new restaurants I've tried out. I headed to brunch Sunday at Jackson Street Tavern.  I chose the waffles and fried chicken. It's a Midwest and Southern thing. The maple syrup (bourbon flavored) had to be licked with my fingers. I indulge myself during weekend after working so hard.   I even convinced myself to try a hot chocolate. All homemade style and made by the cute bartender. Not overwhelming sweet and perfect treat after my meal.

YUM! I need some breakfast right now! All pictures taken by me, using instagram. 

One Day

Sigh, I'm such a fan girl right now. All my favorite TV shows are coming back for new seasons. It's turning into fall and all I want to buy are long oversize sweaters to wear with everything. Also I just keep on stalking style.com for London Fashion Week. It's my own personal escape. I love London designers and their aesthetics. I wish I could be standing in a little corner gasping at all the models walking and trying not to freak out over some random blogger or celebrity that I spotted sitting down next to a editor.

Now back to my reality. I don't deny that I drink lots of Starbucks or coffee in general.  I have to include lots of pictures from inst.gram of my favorite treats and amusements.  I adore these small square photos. Even if they are not the most glamorous, these are real.

Love you all so much for reading!

Unbirthday

First wonderfully cool day just happened to appeared. It felt so refreshing. I even had to run back inside, just to put on a light scarf during the morning commute.

My friends took me out this weekend to celebrate my birthday. I told them about how unamused I felt about turning 22 last weekend. I finally over birthdays and the whole celebration. I gladly will accept presents. I love presents anytime!

In fact all weekend, I felt a little grumpy. It must be a combination of allergies and early stress. I need to plan a getaway for fall break next month.

1.I'm trying to be excited for my birthday. 

2. Enjoying cinnamon coffee at an outdoor concert.

3. TACOS! Not much I need to explain.

ps. Just a little snack. I'm going to post how I made it later.YUM!

La Cantina

Oh Happy Friday! I'm certainly pleased to be done for the week. I had a terribly ache in my mouth and finally visited to the dentist. I had to get a filling! Now it's done I feel so much better.

Thursday night, My mom and I went out to get some drinks (cheers), and Mexican food at Cantina Laredo.  Apparently it's a chain that recently open. I've been checking out tons of newer restaurants opening around Omaha. I'm so stoked to see fresh new concepts and taht Omaha is upcoming in the restaurant scene. My mom and I order a freshly made guacamole and house special margaritas. Also, Thursdays are ladies night, meaning all ladies get discounted drinks until 7pm!

Later on, we had to try the ahi tuna tacos, a mix of sushi and Mexican. So delightful and I smashed the whole plate.



Alright I'm getting hungry from these pictures. Enjoy your weekend, eat well and have fun!

Take Me Tonight

Say it's sounds appropriate to say that I'm happy it's the weekend. This whole week were hectic time for work. Also it's the beginning of August, soon summer will be over. I only have a few more weeks until the start of university.
Sigh, time to try to finish some last minute summer things. Also I must spend more time with some friends before we go back to class.
Just some sweet and funny pictures I took via. Insta.gram. It's such an easy way to document my day.

Summer In Your Eyes

Taking my time to post a small summary of my week.  I can't believe the month is half over. My time has been to devoted to reading. Inspiration is coming from being outside of my room. I talked about making a bucket list for this summer and even the rest of the year. 

Just thinking of ideas, is a distractions from my own realities and some sad events that have occurred. I don't enjoy expressing any negativity, because I would  like to become more of an optimist. Listening to some music and reading, it is honestly the best therapy. Also I've been drinking more tea. Enjoying life, right now, dears! 

ps. Enjoy the pics. Follow Me @razzledazzleme

 

It's A Spark.

Some weeks are so wonderful.  It's feels so much like spring and that only means it's time to be outside all night and enjoy a few drinks and food with the ones I simply adore. This long weekend was so exciting and fun. I saw a few friends and my family at Cheesecake factory. I literally had to fight off a few friends whom tried to steal a bite my slice. Get YOUR own slice!!!

Also I sat down on Saturday at a quite affordable Indian restaurant.  It reminded me of my old neighborhood in Spain. Taste is such a strong attachment to memory. Sigh, one day I will return to those streets filled with delectable curries and naan bread.

Thanks dears for reading! 






Dhaba Indian Cuisine (I'd go back again just for the curry and this giant pancake thing?)

February Loves

Hello lovlies, it's finally March and the days feel longer. It's been so crazy this week. I have to say that I love this semester. I've been going to the gym the past few months and I'm anxious to start running outside.
ust a few things that really made me smile or ate. I take all my food pictures on insta.gram. It's convenient and I don't get all the weird looks from other diners.
What did you enjoy this week? I'm so excited for this extravagant wedding and for hair appointment. be back soon dears. Have fun this weekend!

Little Things Make Me Happy

Hello lovelies,
I went to my favorite restaurant during the weekend. I get the occasional craving for sushi and I was so stoked to go to Sushi Blue on Saturday night. Besides the few bites of joy, I also drank a superb cocktail. I swear I'm not an alcoholic but I really enjoy  fruity drinks. My family could not believe how fast I drank that  sangria.
What did you girls do during the weekend? Did anyone else go to the stores? I could tell that people were getting a head start on their holiday shopping. I have a feeling it's going to be one crazy Black Friday.
