Growing up in a household full of chocolate lovers, I was introduced to L.A. Burdick at a very young age. Honestly, I’m surprised I didn’t grow into a baby chalupa after all of it! But when I went up to Syracuse Univ. for college and away from my family, I always made it a point

Between building houses in Tijuana {sans shower for one week} to being involved with the JDRF’s YLC committee, I thought my charity track record was well…quite charitable!

Let’s face it. It’s almost time to say “adios!” to the cold weather {not to mention the release of bulky trenches…}, and say “hola!” to sunshine, bikinis and more importantly, summer. Finally!

Waking up to bright sunshine and semi-warm weather today? Love it! Waking up to find out Estée Lauder has released a new Mad Men collection of fabulous upbeat goodies? Umm…obsessed is an understatement. I’m all over it and ready to show off my inner 60’s goddess this Spring! Hola. Consisting of three glam-filled products, this

Anddddd, it’s Monday! But just because the hustle & bustle of the work week has started doesn’t mean we can’t all chill out at night…in a reasonably priced fashion, of course! My all-time favorite dessert that’s not only romantic, but cheap? That would be cookin’ up good ‘ole fashioned s’mores. Hola. Whether you’ve got a

Getting a manicure? Yep, that’s pretty much on the top of my beauty errands list for this weekend. But after a long work week I’ve decided to bump it up and totally spoil myself! Top pick on where to get buffed and puffed? That would be the Essie Flagship Salon housed inside the fabulous Samuel
