Super Bowl Sunday!

This coming Sunday is the Super Bowl! It has become a tradition of mine and many others to go to a party or have some friends over for dinner and watch the game together. It is such a festive day with happiness, screaming, and food. I love going on Pinterest and seeing all the amazing ideas people have come up with. Some really cool ideas I have seen are sugar cookies with a football field decorations, chocolate covered strawberries as a football,and Super Bowl cake pops.

 Throughout the game people bring out different snacks and desserts.
If you want to make a super easy and yummy dessert, S'mores Cookies are the perfect choice.

 I decided to try making them and see how they would turn out. It ended up working really well and they taste delicious.

S'mores Cookies

Ingredients:
Cookie Dough (I used Pillsbury) 
Hershey Bars 
Marshmallows 



Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350 degrees 

Step 2: Create small balls of dough and put them on the pan



Step 3: Break up the Hershey's Chocolate into pieces and put them on top of the cookie dough



 Step 4: Put the cookie dough in the oven

 Step 5: After about 12 minutes take the cookie dough out with the chocolate and put the marshmallows on top.


Step 6: Broil the cookies with the marshmallows on top for about 1 minute. When you see that they start getting brown take them out.

 Step 7: Enjoy!!
*I got the recipe from Martha Stewart: http://www.marthastewart.com/336491/smores-cookies?czone=food%252Fchocolate-center%252Fchocolate-recipes&center=874882&gallery=874571&slide=336491&crlt.pid=camp.7hb6ko44eHar

 *Instead of making my own cookie dough I bought a pre-made one,

Recent Instagrams and Iphone Photos

   This weekend I was so busy. On Friday, Alessandra, slept over and we had the most relaxing night. We watched netflix, had dinner, and drank tea. Mid-day Saturday we went to the gym and then made lunch. Soon after she left, I went to Carola's house where we got ready for San Sebastian. This is a festival they have once a year in Old San Juan which last 4 days. There is music everywhere and the party last throughout the day and night. We got ready with a few friends and then went to celebrate. Yesterday after we woke up, we got ready to go to rehearsals for the school musical, In The Heights. After rehearsals I got dressed and went to my friend Sophia's birthday party. I slept over and now I am just relaxing. Although I had the best time this weekend I am so tired now. 

 Here a few pictures from this weekend:

After Holiday Sale!

  I know winter is almost over but it is never bad to think about the future. Right when it starts getting cold in the fall you immediately want to go to the store and buy all new winter clothes. The one problem is that everything is over your price range. Here is a trick, at this time of year a lot of winter clothes are on sale. Start buying a few things now that you know you will want to wear next year. This saves you money and stress. If you are worrying that the store you want to shop at probably does not have a sale, do not worry about it, mostly every store has at least a few pieces on sale.

I have put together a few of my favorite things I found on sale at Nordstroms and Topshop.
