Foodie

I think I have a problem. My addiction to food is overwhelming. I think about food all the time, and it's one of the things that makes me the happiest. I also have a bizarre habit where I remember exactly what I ate everywhere I've ever gone. Actually, it's quite impressive if I do say so myself. Anyways, having a blog now just gives me another excuse to take pictures of food I love. This week my lovely high school friend who now goes to school in NYC,  Broadway starlet, came into town. Blue Eyed girl and I met up with her to do what? Have dinner of course.

My pizza topped with olives, onions, and tomatoes. YUM

Penne with sundried tomatoes and pancetta for Broadway starlet

Classic spaghetti and meatballs for Blue Eyed Girl

This is what happens when strangers take pictures of you-blurry. 

Blue Eyed Girl and I.

So here are some of my favorite eats:

Shrimp, red pepper, and bow tie pasta made by my Mommy

Arch's-the best frozen yogurt in the world. 

Breakfast panini with a side of fruit. I love eggs and bacon on bread. 

Pho!

Sangria

Bruschetta at a local Italian place

I can't resist spinach and artichoke dip!

Georgetown cupcakes-always best with a side of milk 

Delicious cake from local pastry. It's a vanilla cake covered with a light frosting, sliced almonds, and topped with fruit. 

Portuguese bread and olives

Grilled fish, olives, and freshly made french fry chips in Portugal 

Pastries in Portugal 

Crepes covered in chocolate sauce and vanilla ice cream 

Pizza in Italy topped with olives and tuna-this is my favorite kind of pizza. 

There I am at a wedding pondering over which appetizer to grab

The Equestrian's gin bucket-this is a food group!

Tailgating with cheese and crackers

Action shot-chowing down on flat bread and a simple arugula salad in Bermuda 

Chocolate Bombe

Spaghetti with bolognese sauce in Italy 

Good old hamburger and fries

Feta pita with chips and a pickle-my favorite sandwich combination. 

My favorite unhealthy breakfast treat.

Spaghetti with fresh seafood at the beach

Meatball sub-another of my favorite indulgences especially when on amazing bread like this.

But the best cooking of all? My mom's. Penne with grilled eggplant and arugula. Topped with parmesan. YUM.

Like Mother Like Daughter

New Bedding!!

As my older followers know, I'm moving into a new and beautiful apartment this upcoming year. I lived in an apartment last year as well but all of my old roomies are now moving into their sorority houses. Although I wanted to live with my sisters too, sharing a bathroom with 26 other girls was just not for me. My two closest sisters felt the same way so we decided to live together along with the Equestrian's old roomie A. We all are into decorating so I can't wait till I move in so I can show you all are pretty apartment. I'm using my furniture from last year but updating a bit with some new accessories and this fabulous new bedding from Horchow.

  I went with the pink of course:)

J. Crew Crewcuts

I love Crewcuts! I'm only 5'1 so many crewcuts pieces still fit me, especially pants, skirts, and shoes. The tops can run a little too small as they are designed for the chest of a twelve year old but nevertheless a bigger sweater or hoodie still works.

Striped hoodie

Cashmere twinkle button cardigan

Jewel Button Down Cardigan

Gingham popover top 

Kismet skirt

Starlet skirt

Field Day Shirtdress

Skinny Stretch pants (these would be too small but I can dream)

Hooded Collegiate Peacoat

Glitter bow flats


Leopard mittens
