Mystery Picnic
I have found a fun activity that I think you will all love. The best part is this is great for any occasion, a fun date night, a girl's night out, or just a great gift for any occasion. It's a mystery picnic from Amazing co. and as you can tell from the name it is a cool way to have a picnic, I would describe it as a mystery room meets the picnic. You select the adventure that fits your need and the company sends over a location to start and through your phone, they start sending over clues you and your plus one (Or group) need to solve to find the first spot you need to stop to pick up an item to add to your basket to build the picnic. The fun thing is these clues take you to amazing businesses where you pick up your goods, but can also do some shopping at these local shops.
I did Halfmoon Bay and it was a great adventure for my weekend and open my eyes to some amazing places I always want to try and just kept saying "Next time". The food was amazing and the clues were so much fun! Some of them were slightly taught, but they do give you clue and if you need the answer they do provide it. The funny thing was that I did meet many people who were also doing their Mystery Picnic and were enjoying their time. The best part is the food was so good and the Picnic location was amazing. Honestly will be doing this again, it was so much fun and best part is that you get so much out of the adventure

If you don't know what That Girl means it's a TikTok reference but here is the definition according to the internet, "an easy way to level up your life — a snapshot of what it'd look like if you committed to a morning routine, ate healthy, and had a skin care routine."

1.Arm Wrist Weights.
I think they are a must have! You can easily use them for easy quick walks, to an intense hikes, or if your doing 12-3-30. Its also handy to have around if your doing Pilates, dance cardio or starting out in your workout routine for 2022. I have be enjoying them for light workout classes on Peloton.
2.Initial Necklaces.
This is one "That Girl" item I never thought I be into, but it has become an outfit staple. Initial necklace could be worn with any outfit and make you look put together. Even if you got out of your bed. The best part is you can personalize this to your personal style from minimal, funky, preppy. I been loving a gold one
3. Athleisure sets
Sets in my opinion are a must have for everyone! They just make you look so well put together and on top of your stuff. You can get the original inspiration Set Active or find dupes on amazon. Here are some of my favorite:
Set Active Dupe *Still looking for the prefect dupe, but this one is close
4. Lip Masks
Anyone else addicted to them ? I use them all day and have become a big part of my skincare routine. These are my two must have, and I know "That Girls" have in every TikTok Video.
LANEIGE Lip Sleeping Mask
5.Water Bottles.
Hydration is key in "That Girl " aesthetic! One of the major reasons I am here for this trend. I have always been someone who loves to carry water bottles around and thanks to the trend there are so many aesthetic affordable bottles out there right now.
These are my top five but there are many more items. let me know if I should do more blog post like this.
Yosemite For Non-Hikers.
As some of you know in the last couple of years my siblings and I have fallen in love with Yosemite. 2020 gave us the opportunity to explore it more and this year 2021 we decided to invest in .. pass to visit any time and any national park and we have definitely used it. With my brother moving across the country to Spain we decide to do a family trip and bring our parents with us. My mom is not a hiker she can walk on the treadmill for hours, but add some inclined and she is done. So we plan this Yosemite hiking tripe tailored for non hikers and It was very refreshing and just what we all needed. If your a first timer going to Yosemite or just not the best hiker then I have couple option you would truly enjoy.
1. Tunnel View
This is a view point you can drive up to and find parking. this view point is one of the best to see El Capitan, Half Dome and Bridalveil Fall. Unfortunately these last couple of times the smoke has been in the way but a great starting point to see the park from.
2. Taft Point
The actual hike we did is Taft Point its 2.2 round trip but leads to a beautiful view wide views of Yosemite Valley, Yosemite Falls and El Capitan. The main attraction of Taft Point is the giant fissures in the mile-high granite rock. This was the perfect hike for non hikers my parents were able to complete with no difficulty. there is a slight incline on the way back once seeing the view. Do be on the look out to make sure Glacier point road is open, they do close it certain time's of the year so check Yosemite website.
3. Yosemite Village & Lower Yosemite fall trails.
Perfect for non hikers you are surrounded by the valley and can stop to get food at the village and gift shop. Also close by is the lower Yosemite Fall trail that can take you to the view point of the falls for a flat small hike with an amazing view. This is also a great spot to stop for the bathroom and take a seat to enjoy a lunch or rest they have tables.
4. El Cap View point.
One of the best things to do before you leave or driving through the park is go see El cap. El Capitan Meadow provides a view straight up and there usually is a lot of parking on the side. Located along one-way Northside Drive, it is best to stop here on your way out of Yosemite Valley. You can look up Yosemite Valley from alongside the Merced River at Valley View. This a great spot to take in the amazing view and honestly no hiking involved.
My Top Favorite Peloton Rides!
30 min Hamilton Ride with Robin Arzon: This is one of my all time favorite go to rides. Even if you don't like musicals, I'm pretty sure you will enjoy this one. If you're a fan of the musical Hamilton you can also take the original Hamilton rides buried all the way in the archives. Called 30 min Broadway ride with Robin and it's also all Hamilton (extra songs that might be missing from this ride ) it Premiered back in 2016.
Any Emo Pop Ride: Kendall started the Emo Pop rides and I love them all so far but, my favorite is actually not from Kendall its from Bradley Rose its 20 minutes Pop Punk ride, I personally just love the music he selected and where it was placed during the ride.
Cody's 30 min Britney Spears Ride: This ride is just Iconic ! If you love Britney and Cody its a no brainer. Definitely one I go back to when I need motivation. It's also a favorite amongst the community.
Robin 30 min Greatest Showman Ride: If you love the movie this ride is everything and more. It's an older ride but definitely worth it for all the feels. I personally love to do this ride during the holidays before or after watching the movie.
Ally Love 30 min Post Malone ride: Peloton Has so many good artist rides but this Post Malone ride is one of my all time favorites. From the music selection (all of his top hits from the start to now) to learning so much about the artist. It's definitely a class that pushes you to reach those goals.
There you go my top five favorite rides that I personally go back to. Because one I love music. Second the energy and third the intensity and motivation I get to push myself. My goal is to try and do a post like this every month, so in case you need a suggestion on what ride to take I'll have a list for you.

Hack to Save $ on Nespresso Pods
I have a money saving trip for all of us Nespresso coffee lovers. On top of that it helps us save planet. As we all know most of the time coffee pods end up in land fills, even when we try to recycle. Then there is the cost of the pods themselves and those starts adding up. (We all know those pods go by fast!)
Here is where my tip comes in handy! I found The Coffee Seal on Amazon. They sell Aluminum Foils Lids that you can use to refill Nespresso pods. So now you can re-use them with your own coffee blende at home. It's super easy and it helps save money and the planet. According to the brand foils are made from environmentally friendly, safe, non-toxic, food-grade, BPA-free material and produce an excellent cup of coffee. These lids are truly high quality and easy to use.
Honestly if you love your Nespresso coffee, you definitely needed these. On top of saving money and the planet, your able to make your own blend the way you like it. I love reusing my pods, and the money you save let me splurge on other items for my little coffee corner at home.

Down below you will see how easy it is to refile the pods, but I also have a video on Tiktok. I want to thank The Coffee Seal, for gifting me this set of seals so I could do the video and blog post. All opinions are my own and I was already buying the product even before I reached out to the brand.

Let's Talk Coffee
If you follow me on social media you know I have a love for coffee and creating my own drinks at home. Who wants to spend over five bucks when you can make a delicious drink from the comforts of home just the way you like it for a fraction of the cost.
Today I
want to highlight one of my favorite products to make all my delicious coffee
recipes with, Torani Puremade Caramel Sauce. What I love the best about this
sauce is that it can add so much flavor to any coffee drink no matter if you
have it cold, blended or nice and warm. With March being National Sauce Month I
thought what a better way than to celebrate with Torani Puremade Sauce and my
go to Coffee recipe.
Caramel Iced Latte spiked with caramel whip
cream! This is my go to for a post long workday or on weekends when I want a
nice creamy coffee with a little something extra. The best part is you can also
make this coffee without the spike and enjoy it every day, but let’s be honest
the best thing about this drink is the Torani Puremade Caramel Sauce. This caramel
sauce blends in so well in many different ways to give my coffee drink the best
flavor. What I love the most is the fact
that it has no artificial flavors. So I love to add it to my coffee in
different ways like caramel whip cream that helps make my drink more special.
To make this drink you will need the following
ingredients.
-Torani Puremade Caramel Sauce ( Torani Puremade Sauce can be bought online at torani.com)
- 1 shot Espresso
- ½ cup milk of choice
- 1 ounce coffee liqueur (if you like to make the spike version)
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
-Ice
When it comes to an Iced latte there is
something you need to keep in mind, an Iced latte is different from iced coffee
. A latte is an espresso shot with steamed milk. Making it a little stronger in
taste but if that ain't what you like you are welcomed to substitute the
espresso shot with iced coffee and follow the remaining directions down below.
Directions :
First off I like to start off by making the
espresso and adding the steamed milk. And letting it cool before pouring it to
a different cup. At this time I take the Kahula and pour it into the latte with
around one tablespoon of the Torani Puremade Caramel Sauce and mix it into the
latte. While I let this cool, I move on
to making the caramel whipped cream from scratch.
Now I know making the whip cream from scratch
sounds daunting but honestly I promise it is super easy. When I make the
caramel whipped cream I like to make enough for the days to come, but if you
would like to just make enough for your drink you can do that but trust me it’s
so good you’re going to wish you made more than just one drink. Now there's two
ways you can mix the heavy whipping cream - by hand, which is a guaranteed arm
work out, or by using an electric mixer. I will be taking the electric mixer
route but that's just me. In the mixing bowl, I add the heavy whipping cream. I
whip until stiff peaks are just about to form. At this point I would add in Torani
Puremade Caramel Sauce. Add in as much as you desire, I love caramel so I tend
to add a good amount, roughly around 3 tablespoons. Once added let it whip
until it blends together. And that's it, I told you it was super easy.
Once I have the whipped cream done the next
step will be the caramel wall, aka - adding caramel around the cup. I would add
some Torani Puremade Caramel Sauce to the bottom and around the sides of my
glass followed by ice, then at this time I would pour in the cooled spiked
latte I had made earlier. For the finishing step I top the latte off with the
freshly made caramel whipped cream and sit back and enjoy!
I got a Peloton Bike!
I finally gave in and got the Peloton bike. As many of you who follow me on social media know, I have been on the Peloton app for over three years. Doing the on demand workouts on a stationary bike that I set up perfectly to be able to do peloton class without the price, but after years of doing that I took the second wave of closures in California as my time to treat myself and I don't regret it.
The day of the delivery I was scheduled towards the end of the day from two to five pm, and it was a third party delivery but they focus on just delivering the pelotons only no other items In the truck. They actually called me around 12 asking if they could do an early delivery and I said yes. The wore there mask and brought it all the way into my house and were patient with me forgetting my Wi-Fi info.
