Alonzo’s Oyster Bar: A Review

April 15, 2014 by anc49

During spring break, my mom, best friend and I went on a little getaway to The Keys. Surprisingly enough, I had never been and was super excited to check it out. Although I much prefer the pace, scenery and entertainment of South Florida, I enjoyed The Keys and took advantage of the incredible weather. But then again, when isn’t Florida weather divine… As part of a special segment about dining in The Florida Keys, I will review the famed Alonzo’s […]

Miracles Do Happen: Dr. Murad Saved My Skin

April 15, 2014 by anc49

Photo credit: Dr. Murad Like most women (and college students), I suffer from acne from time to time. Usually, I keep my skin under control and clear, but sometimes stress gets a hold of me and sabotages my porcelain skin. And for those who have had breakouts, you know that when it gets bad, it stays like that for a while. The worst part of all? Hyper pigmentation and scars that extend their visit and mark your face until they […]

Insomnia Cookies: A Review

April 14, 2014 by anc49

I went back home to Miami for spring break to escape the dreadful D.C. weather and catch up with my family. If we’re being honest, I also went back home to tan. So while I was wrapping up a tanning spree on South Beach, I walked down Washington Avenue where I stumbled upon Insomnia Cookies. Mind you, I’ve wanted to go to Insomnia for forever (ironic because I suffer from insomnia) so this was the perfect opportunity. Name: Insomnia Cookies […]

Sequoia: A Review

April 14, 2014 by anc49

Ever since I got to Georgetown, I’ve been dying to try out Sequoia, a popular restaurant on the Waterfront that’s well-known for its brunch menu (or at least, that’s what it seems like on my Instagram feed). Back in February, a big group of us went to Sequoia to celebrate one of my roommate’s birthdays for dinner. So alas, I tried the famed eatery. Disclaimer: This review is about a lobster dish served at Sequoia. Before the lobster mac ‘n cheese dish, I […]

Spring has Sprung: Cherry Blossoms Galore in D.C.

April 13, 2014 by anc49

One of the many things I inherited from my grandmother is my love of flowers. I often joke with my friends that I’d rather receive flowers than chocolate (not jewelry, of course…). And of course, spring flowers are my absolute favorite. Luckily for me, the cherry blossom festival is in full swing here in Washington, D.C. and I live pretty close to the Tidal Basin, aka the cherry blossom jackpot. I convinced my best friend to trek over with me […]

Bistro Français: A Review

April 13, 2014 by anc49

For Valentine’s Day (yes, I know: I’m late), my best friend and I dined at Bistro Français because we’re major francophiles and no one does romance better than the French (or food, really). We couldn’t have asked for a better V Day dinner: everything was incredibly delicious, the ambiance was lovely and the service was great. Too bad it’s much more of a couple’s restaurant… Name: Bistro Français Location: 3124 M St NW (Washington, D.C.) Time: 7:30 pm on a […]

The Benefits of Coconut Oil

April 13, 2014 by anc49

Photo Credit: Eat Right Thanks to my grandmother, I’m a lover of all home remedies and natural oils, especially for beauty treatments. So when I discovered coconut oil and started experimenting with it for my hair and skin, I became hooked. In fact, it’s become part of my beauty regimen and one of my secret weapons. Coconut oil is so incredibly packed with benefits that cover all spectrums of health and beauty, but I’ll focus on the wonders it can do […]
