Cooking with love

Saturday, I decided to show my boyfriend how much I appreciate him by surprising him with a picnic. Being that I live in Arizona I didn't think it would be a problem. Of course, the one and only time I plan a picnic, it rains all weekend. So we had an indoor picnic. I made a bowtie and melon salad, chocolate covered strawberries and home made cookies. He loved it.

Boyfriend decided to return the fave by cooking me surprise dinner on Sunday. Frozen green beans, instant white rice and fish sticks.

I love him.

30 days of me - day 1

I know I posted my 3o days a few days ago and to be honest, I got lazy and procrastinated. But hey, I am doing it now! Today was a lazy day...this whole weekend was a lazy day. The weather is cold and rainy, it's the perfect movie marathon day while munching on some Girl Scout Shortbread cookies. Yum!!

Here are the pictures of me today:





If could remember where I got my clothes, I'd tell you, but today it is just jeans, black tshirt and my favorite sweater. I think I may have gotten my sweater at either Urban Outfitters or Nordstrom, but it is my absolute favorite and goes with practically every casual outfit. Well, at least I make it go with almost everything.







PS. I just purchased 2 of the sexiest competitve latin dresses and I can't wait till the alterations are done so I can show them to you!

30 days of Me

As suggested by Amy from A Whim of Mine suggested that I do a 30 day thing to get me back in the swing of things with my blogging and may find some inspiration. I've tried a 30 day thing before ans I don't know if it was the time or if it was the questions but I didn't stick to it. Hopefully, this time will be different. So prepare - from here on out, we are going to get up close and personal!

I really don't know what happened.

but blogging use to be so easy. I feel like I have nothing to say and not for lack of things going on but just cuz i don't know what to say.

grr. this is frustrating because I miss and love blogging.

Valentine's Day.

I've never had a valentine's day and to be honest I didn't care for it. Well, it wasn't a big deal to me that is. To me, I love my boyfriend and we spend so much time together showing our feelings that every day is valentine's day to me. We couldn't celebrate vday today, however, so we stayed home yesterday and made dinner together which was nice. Then afterwards, boyfriend pulled out an unexpected gift. I kind of thought he forgot about valentine's but I was so wrong.

this is what he got me:


A message in a bottle! How freakin' thoughtful and sweet is that?


I didn't take a picture of what the message said because those are words that need to be kept close to my heart, but he said some sweet things that I didn't expect him to say. I don't know why I am surprised when he expresses how he feels, but I almost cried to find out how much he loved me and how I happy make him.



It was a really nice surprise and really nice first valentine's day. I'm actually planning a surprise romantic picnic for him either this week or next week. Kinda depends on when I get my basket that I ordered, but I really want to show him much he means to me.

I hope everyone celebrated valentine's day in their own special way. Till next time...xoxo
