Hi! I'm BAAACCCCKKK! UPDATE & FOOD ADVENTURE!

UPDATE ON ME!!! & FOOD ADVENTURE!

I know this blog has been neglected for the past three months. I am a horrible person. But literally, I have been a hermit crab. I've been swamped with so much going on that I lost sight of everything! So much has happened in literally two months. I moved to a new place, I started school again, I started my second job, AND I applied to Florida International University in Florida (and got accepted! YAY!) and I'm slowly starting to adjust before I make my big move again in January! This is going to be a really weird experience because I have never lived outside of San Diego my entire life. I love everything about this city, but I also feel too sheltered by this place. It may be my family or the familiarity of things but I feel like in order for me to grow as a person I need to explore new possibilities and learn how to do things on my own. Mommy and Daddy can't hold my hand forever. I am 23 years old, afterall!!! 

So besides my exciting update, I wanted to share a food adventure with you all! Last night the boyfriend and I decided to try this new restaurant in Fashion Valley called "STACKED." He saw it driving by the mall and it looked interesting. The thing that made it so different was the ordering process. You order your food from an IPAD. It boggles my mind how amazing technology has gotten today. LOL. 

We got there on Friday night at 5:30pm. Thank goodness we missed the rush that came in at 6pm! Their menu consists of the basics. Burgers, salads, pizza's, and sides. It cool because you basically sit there and put together your own meal on an Ipad. I chose a whole wheat bun with a turkey patty, lettuce, avocado, jalapeno, feta cheese, and their STACKED sauce. I also ordered a side of sweet potato fries (my fav!) We just added the order to cart and sent it to the kitchen. Our food came in standard time. It was pretty good and I will most likely go there again. I kept thinking what a hip cool new place for the kids. Haha. They also had a large choice of alcoholic beverages as well as shakes and other desserts. Overall, I really liked it.

Miami's Pinecrest Gardens

Today after waking up early for no reason and taking a late afternoon nap, the boyfriend took me to the Pinecrest Gardens, which is down the street from our house in Pinecrest. It was hot and humid outside, I felt like I was in some kind of jungle! There were spiders, lizards, and I came out of this with new mosquito bites! But I was a good sport about it :)

MIAMI!!!

The weather isn't something I mind in Miami. Its really similar to how the weather is in Vietnam, and how I miss it! Ive always said I like the heat better than the cold. That's just me.
This is a snapshot from our view of the sky. I wish I could touch the clouds, they look so fluffy and soft!I couldn't wait to touch base in Miami.

UPDATE:

I've been in Miami for exactly a week. RP and I were suppose to come back tomorrow to San Diego, but we decided to extend our stay for another week! I am so excited. I absolutely love it here. I love spending time with RP's dad and his family. I'm in love with his home and his puppies!

 This backyard is my haven. The pool got much use this week!

 Our beautiful home.

 Cuban Cigars smell amazing.

 Calle Ocho, Lil Havana 

 Fritas con queso. Dangerously addicting and good.

 Southbeach. The Clevelander<3

 La Carreta, my first and still my favorite taste of cuban cuisine.

Miami beach...thank you for being so clear and so wonderful.

 Grilled chicken, rice and beans. Simply delicious.

The coffee...its like crack.

The skyline at night is amazing, the people make you fall in love, the old men having arguments at the coffee windows, and the carefree atmosphere that almost seems like no one here works, is enough to make you want to call this place home.

MORE TO COME! <3

SUMMER ADVENTURES!

AHH...Nothing reminds me that summer is here like the Del Mar Fair... For those that don't live in Southern California, It's basically like our "state fair." It's the United State's 5th Most Largest Fair! Thanks to my boyfriend for that little nerdy fact. (LOL) I love going every year and I look forward to it!!! It usually runs for a month. Mid- June and ends every year on July 4th! Things I look forward to most while at the fair. 

1. The FOOD. Let me break it down to you: Australian battered potatoes with ranch & cheese, grilled corn on the cobb with butter chili powder, turkey legs, deep fried everything, cinnamon rolls, kettle corn, and so so SO much more!

2. The games with their amazing carnies. Need I say more? Lol 

3. The people! 

4. The SALES! 

5. Did I already mention the food? LOL 

...more to come! :)
