Value

The rainbow flecked, 6 inch Birthday Cake sells for $50. If you’re feeling a little adventurous, you can always go up a size a purchase a 10 inch cake for $115.

Product

Every Milk Bar Birthday cake is layered, including frosting, funfetti sprinkles, and cookie crumbles. The first bite in, I couldn’t get enough. It’s absolutely delicious. Don’t forget to make room for seconds.

The Good: Creamy, rich, and tasty! Nothing short of delicious!
The Bad: None

Overall

On a grading scale, I would give Milk Bar an A+ for the cake. I know a home delivered cake sounds a little weird, but it’s a new experience that deserves a shot. You won’t be disappointed!

Lifestyle: Cheers to 33

I’m happy to report that another Birthday has come and gone, and it was more than amazing! Thirty-three years of life, and I’m still up to the same old tricks, just a little wise now. Needless to say, Mo and I spent most of the day at the beach, soaking up the sun. We laughed, relaxed, and of course, socially distanced ourselves from the crowd, of course! I guess this is what older people have to look forward to…Birthday beach days. I wouldn’t trade it for the world though. In conclusion, there’s no need to write down a long list about the things I learned this year. Why? I’m just trying to live in the moment, and see what happens! Cheers to thirty-three, and many more years to come!

Until next time,

Lifestyle: Adult Swim

July 7, 2020

Can you guys believe it’s July already? I know it’s been a long year due to all these historical events taking place, but 2020 is halfway over. Since the first day of summer, I’ve been all over the place. From developing new blog content to working a 9 to 5, there hasn’t been too many opportunities for me to unfold, relax, and just chill. Luckily, I had little more free-time than usual this past weekend. So, guess what I did? I went for a swim, of course! Knowing that pool is conveniently sitting in my backyard is more than a temptation. It’s a non-negotiable! So, I cleared out my entire weekend to soak up the sun. It was the best decision ever! Have you been for a swim lately? Feel free and share your experience below!

Enjoy,

Lifestyle: Spring Bucket List

May 27, 2020

Filed Under : Celebrations - Life

Like the old saying goes, April showers bring May flowers. But what does June bring though? Summer, of course! With Summer Solstice less than a month away, I have a few things to accomplish before Spring wraps. Note: These are minor tasks that should have been taken care of a while ago. Luckily, I have a few weeks to wrap them up. Here are the five items from my upcoming to-do list:

Picking Flowers: Call me old fashion or even country, but I thoroughly enjoy picking flowers (Hence, all the flowers in the photo). It may not resonate with most people my age, but flower picking is very relaxing to me. Self care is important!

Running in the Rain: Running is one of my favorite pastimes. More specifically, I really enjoy running in the rain. There’s nothing like running full speed through a big puddle. I know it sounds weird, but I haven’t gotten around to doing it yet this season. Why? It’s been too cold! The temperature has to be warm enough. Give me like a couple weeks. Things are warming up here in New Jersey.

Cherry Blossoms: Cherry Blossoms are the epitome of Spring in every major city! Their soft, pink petals attract locals and visitors from all over. Unfortunately, most of the cherry blossom trees in my neighborhood peaked too early. They bloomed by the middle of March, and were gone within a week. We can all thank Mother Nature for dropping the temperature fifteen degrees. That said, I’m still searching to find a nice group. I may have to venture to Philly for that!

Picnic: Although social distancing has kept us apart for some time, I’m still determined to have a picnic before it’s way too hot. With a good book and playlist, picnics are very relaxing. I have to find a nice park with a great scene. In the meantime, I’ll have my blanket and basket are ready to go!

Purge Closet: In a previous post found here, I planned on rearranging my closet. Unfortunately, that didn’t go as planned. I have too many clothes. Rather than trying to make everything fit, I would rather sort and purge most of my unworn clothing. What’s the point of having something in your closet that you have no intentions to wear?

Cheers to the upcoming season! Hopefully, I will complete my Spring Bucket. No need to bring extra work into the next season.

Much love,
