Live Edge Brewing Company.

Hey guys! Everyone who knows me, knows I love to check out new bars & restaurants that I haven't tried before. I love to eat and drink but who doesn't? I was thinking of doing more blog posts about the new bars & restaurants I recently have tried out. I live in Buffalo, NY which is such a great place to live, it has so much to offer. It has many great restaurants, breweries, wineries, and distilleries. 

            I recently went to Live Edge Brewing Company which is in Burt, NY. I live in a little town about 20 minutes from the City of Buffalo. Live Edge is about an hour drive for me but so worth the little drive. If you’re coming from Buffalo, you can even make it a little day trip. There are many wineries around that area too. The food, the beer, the staff, and the atmosphere were all amazing. The atmosphere was rustic yet very chic and the staff was warm/welcoming. My sister and I both got beer flights which came with 4 different craft beers. I loved all of them expect for one. I’m kind of picky with beer though. I typically like IPAs and ales. I am not crazy about Stouts/dark beer in general. Their food menu was perfection. They had crispy chickpeas with different flavors, fried pickles, hot pretzel sticks with dips, a veggie burger (which sounded like heaven), and many other amazing options. They also have many vegetarian options which I love.  My sister and I decided to split a charcuterie platter and tater tots with a side of beer cheese/sriracha mayo. The tater tots were AMAZING, they were perfectly crisp! Definitely one of the best I have ever had. The beer cheese/sriracha mayo were also super good. The charcuterie platter was fabulous as well. It came with a couple gourmet meats, some artisan cheeses, pickled green beans, arugula, and some perfectly grilled bread. My sister and I absolutely love that kind of thing. I totally recommend this place, go check it out!

Oils.

Hey guys! Today I wanted to do a blog post about essential oils. I recently started using essential oils and I have become a little obsessed. There are many different essential oils out there and with that comes different benefits with each one. Some popular oils are lavender, peppermint, tea tree, eucalyptus, frankincense, lemon, and clove, that is just to name a few. You can do so much with oils, you can clean with them, use them for your health, and even use them as an air freshener. The best thing about them is that they are all natural. You can buy essential oils from many different places but when buying any essential oil make sure it's not made in china and the packaging actually says it is 100% of that essential oil. I bought an essential oil starter kit from a company called Young Living. This is a great company because they I love this starter kit because it came with so much. It came with 11 different oils, a diffuser, an essential oil magazine, 10 sample packets, 2 NingXia Red samples, and a roller. My favorite essential oils are lavender and peppermint, I use these oils like water. Lavender oil can be used for sleep, relaxation, acne, and can actually help relieve pain. I typically use lavender in my diffuser every night. Peppermint oil can actually help soothe stomach aches/headaches, improve digestion issues, freshens breath, and can even help clear your respiratory tract. That is just some benefits from two oils. I can be here all day listing benefits to these and other oils. I hope you guys learned something about oils from my post and willing to give them a shot.

2018.

Happy New Year guys! Is it just me or does anyone else feel like 2017 just started? I do have to admit, I love New Years though. One of my favorite things about New Years is getting a new planner. It makes me feel like I'm organized and getting my life together haha. Another thing I love about New Years is the fresh start. Having this fresh start gives me so much hope and faith for the upcoming year. It's the first day of the rest of your life. I also love making New Years resolutions. Here are my New Years resolutions for 2018... Travel more, spend less time on social media, make new relationships, think positive, drink more water, do more yoga, learn to let things go, become vegetarian/vegan, eat healthier, stop procrastinating, less worrying, less complaining, and pay it forward more. I hope everyone has a lovey 2018 filled with good heath and happiness.

Some Fall Essentials.

I am one of those people who is obsessed with Fall. I love the sweaters, leggings, boots, scarves, and of course everything pumpkin. Here are a couple of my favorite fall essentials. I am completely obsessed with ripped denim. The jeans I am wearing right here are Rockstar jeans from Old Navy. They are seriously so comfy and they are fringed at the bottom. They are actually supposed to ankle length but I am on the shorter side so they are full length for me which I love. My booties are Sam Edelman and they are actaully from T.J. Maxx. I know, shocker right? Everyone who knows me I am completely obsessed with T.J. Maxx/Marshalls/Homegoods.I am in these stores at least a couple times a week. My shirt is Maxx Studio, which is just a perfect plain, loose, comfy black shirt. My sweater is from Marshalls and the brand is Adrienne Vittadini. I love the color of this sweater, it's perfect for fall. I also love that this sweater is long so I can weat it with leggings. As for my accessories, my sunglasses are avatior Ray Bans, my watch is Michael Kors, and my necklace is from H&M.

Brooklyn Bridge.

Another thing I really wanted to while in the city, is walk over the Brooklyn Bridge. I have always wanted to do that. I have to say, it was truly amazing like I knew it would be. I would highly recommend it for anyone in the big apple.

New York City.

Hey guys! Today's blog post is going to be about my recent trip to New York City. Many of you may know I have a huge obsession with the big apple. This has been my sixth time there. The one thing I had been dying to do in the city is to go to a rooftop bar. If you are ever in New York City, I would suggest a rooftop bar! I would definitely find one in Brooklyn, that way you can see the whole skyline. We ended up going to the Ides bar in Brooklyn. The view was absolutly stunning. Of course I ordered a cosmopolitan, pretending I was living the Carrie Bradshaw life.

Boston, Massachusetts.

Hey guys! I have been meaning to write a blog post about my recent visit to Boston, Massachusetts. I love Boston! It has so much to offer. It has amazing food, beautiful buildings, and it is just a short drive to Cape Cod, Maine, and New Hampshire. While I was there, I went to a couple breweries, some adorable restaurants/bars, the lovely Newbury Street, Quincy Market, and of course did some shopping.
