Well, the weekend definitely caught up with me. The more and more I think back, I am really not sure how I survived college…day drinking is some serious business! I find it kind of funny because I had never really heard of Brunch being very popular growing up. It wasn’t until I moved to New York City and began my working career that I realized it is THE THING TO DO on the weekends. It is almost impossible to avoid. I guarantee if you visit the city, at some point you will find yourself brunching like it is nobody’s business.
I’m still trying to get to the bottom of why it is so popular here…maybe it just gets more popular once you graduate school and get older…an excuse to drink mimosas and bloody mary’s? I don’t know! Until I find out, I will keep participating 😉
Sunday Brunch at Yuca Bar was pretty good! I forgot to snap pictures of my meal – but I ordered poached eggs with a cilantro cream sauce over yuca potato and shrimp. It was my first time trying poached eggs…I’ve always been a little turned off by the gooeyness of them…but they were yummy! Following the food, was a nice happy birthday serenade for Ian!
it's my birthday almost!
My friend had asked the waitress for a cupcake…this is their version!
Followed by a mini-photo shoot…

Dance Party!!
The rest of the day was thoroughly enjoyed, thanks so an awesome group of friends!! iI’m adding this last picture just because at one point I lost my crowd…some group leader I am.
Can you spot me?
When Ian and I finally got home the couch was our best friend. We spent the rest of the evening watching a movie and I did my nails.
oh la la
Would you believe if I told you these were stickers?? I tried out the new Sally Hansen Nail Effects and was pretty impressed! They are not perfect, but for a product that claims to last up to 10 days and I don’t have to wait for them to dry…I was a happy camper. 🙂 So far so good…
I’m off to bed now, or well…to eat some dessert then go to bed! I had some leftover flourless peanut butter cookie dough so I baked one last batch.
See ya in the morning!
