Hello from Pennsylvania! I came here for a couple of days to celebrate the (belated) birthday of my lovely mom. But let’s rewind a bit first, shall we?

Later that night Jessi and I headed to Hudson Common for a special karaoke party. But not just any karaoke party…

Karaoke Killed the Cat hosted what was hands down the most fun karaoke I’ve ever experienced. They’ve made karaoke less of an awkward (sometimes boring) performance and turned it into an interactive, silly, and FUN party.

On Friday Jessi and I had a handful of meetings all over the city. A few miles walked and a forgotten lunch later, we were starving for dinner by 5pm. So after our last meeting our destination was an obvious one – to head to Murray Hill for dinner at Baby Bo’s.

Baby Bo’s has some of the best authentic Mexican food in the city. Tip: always ask for the extra dipping sauces with your tortilla chips!

I usually get enchiladas or a burrito, but I decided to switch it up and try their Chile Rellenos (one with beef, one with shrimp), served with rice and beans. It looks a bit messy, but it was so, so good. I think I may have a new favorite meal.

It was still gorgeous outside when we left, so we decided to take the 30-minute walk home. By the time we got back to the apartment we were pretty exhausted from the long day, so a movie chick flick night it was!

Bachelorette was…good. Definitely funny and cute at times, but sort of unnecessarily crude at others. Definitely entertaining, though!
After sleeping until 11am yesterday morning (who am I?) I headed to the train station where my beautiful sister Katie picked me up.

We had such a fun afternoon together stopping at her apartment, visiting our friend Sara, and running some errands before setting up camp at mom and dad’s. Laziness, ice cream, and quality family time ensued.

And now here I am on Sunday morning, about to get ready for church and the day ahead
Enjoy the rest of your weekend, friends!
Have you ever done karaoke? What’s your go-to song?
How’s your weekend so far?




























Looks like you had a great weekend (: And your hair is lookin fab!
ah thank you lady! :*
Your hair looks great!! Karaoke is so much fun, I think sweet Caroline is the best karaoke song…the whole crowd really gets involved.
ahhh Baby Bo’s is amazing! I think I actually discovered it from your blog. My bff and I went there the other night and it seriously is the BEST. I’m kinda obsessed, I even got my office to order it the next day for lunch
Ah, yes! Isn’t it so good?! One of the city’s hidden gems, for sure
The last time I did karaoke I think I was 12! But my favourite song to sing out loud has always been Bohemian Rhapsody.
Enjoy your time at home!
