Mercado San Miguel is another famous market in Madrid, located just off Plaza Mayor.
It’s a great place to get tapas from as little as €1.50 and drinks are around €3. They have various stalls with jamon, cheese, olives, as well as sweet treats. It’s perfect for a casual drink night and it won’t break the bank!
Hasta luego!

Hope everyone is having a great summer!
We’ve been having weird weather out here in San Diego lately; thunderstorms and summer showers! I think San Diego is having sympathy pains for Okinawa as a storm is heading their way. Hopefully my sister’s and brother-in-law’s new car doesn’t float away in the storm. 🙂 They’re moving into their new place tomorrow and what better way to introduce themselves to new neighbors than with homemade chocolate chip cookies! Since Okinawa has lots of beautiful beaches, the recipe is bikini friendly for your beach body! Less fats and butter, but still maintaining that fluffy chewy cookies texture. 
This recipe calls for vanilla paste, which I love because it has an intense vanilla flavor, but vanilla extract will work as well. Mix and match any type of chocolate chips or nuts you want, just make sure you don’t add too much. I think next time I’m going…

Great sesame noodle recipe
My travel journeys over the past four years, which I have been so fortunate to experience, have always been on a student budget. That being said, I have a good barometer for what experiences I will and wont splurge on. I know myself and know what I will regret once I leave a destination. So food being one of the largest expenses of traveling abroad, I budgeted for a few splurges along the way. We decided to splurge on nightlife in Berlin instead of food,indulge in seafood in Croatia, and splurge on any amazing house specialties in the trattorias of Italy. The rest of the trip would consist of lots of fruit, cheap pizza (mostly in Croatia, ha), cheaper vodka, and some nuts. Great for the wallet, and waistline. I am a true believer that while some amazing meals do come from Michelin rated restaurants, amazing memories and meals can…

I always have a hard time looking for something to send to one of my best friends, who has celiacs. I love that this company creates a box based on those diet restrictions!
Urthbox is a Subscription box that delivers monthly healthy FULL SIZE treats! YES FINALLY! I hate paying for samples, samples should be free. They have four different boxes you can sign up for: Vegan, Gluten Free, Diet (healthy snacks to help you lose weight), and Classic (which is just healthy snacks). The box is the medium box which is $29.00 a month for 12-15 FULL SIZED PRODUCTS! But since I had the living social deal I only payed $19.
This is the box it arrived in
Urthbox Unveiled
Ground-Based Nutrition Superfood Protein Smoothie $3.33 SAMPLE SIZE!? Thats really disappointing since they advertise only full sized products on their website. This is a single serving packet. This is a plant based protein blend. It is vegan friendly, no soy, dairy, or whey. It has no artificial colors, flavors, or dyes. It is high in fiber and is all natural. Includes…

I love chowders- this is definitely worth trying
Goodbye, white balance. I’ll call you if I need you.
Do you ever have days where it feels like 4 a.m. all day?
Maybe it’s because you have actually gotten up at 4 that day. Maybe you ran out of bread and cereal and pancake mix and had to make do with a mushy banana for breakfast. Maybe you checked your library account and discovered that you had three books a week overdue. Maybe you glanced at the New York Times Bestseller list and found that the book at the top — the one everybody is raving about, even that crusty old critic in Chicago — has a setting, characters, and premise very similar to the book you’re currently writing, and now if you try to publish or promote your book in any way, everyone will think you copied.
This has never happened to me. Well, except for that one…
