Passion Over Everything

Because of Instagram, I am truly thankful for the opportunity to befriend such passionate, ambitious, and hard-working individuals who share the same interests as I do. One of these individuals include the kind-hearted and bubbly Eva, otherwise known as @simplyevahxo on Instagram. Eva literally started blogging just a couple months back and has published so many blog posts in such a short amount of time - her work ethic is seriously off the charts! Seeing Eva's burning passion, dedication, and time commitment for blogging within these last few months has seriously inspired me to push myself further, work harder, and explore California more. So to Eva, I sincerely thank you for being such a supportive blogger friend that I know I can always talk to, be my true self around, and share future collaboration ideas with. In this blog post, I have summed up a few realizations that I have learned the hard way as an aspiring lifestyle blogger.

How To Plan The Perfect Pinterest-Inspired Picnic

Thanks to Pinterest, I always have an inspirational source to turn to when I need to get my creative juices flowing. I'm sure a lot of you think similarly of Pinterest as well, as this website literally feels like a lifesaver to me. On occasion, I look through Pinterest pictures and organize these by topics via Pinterest boards. I'm not an active Pinterest user, but feel free to add me on Missmisschelle if you are interested to see what kind of inspirational pictures I look for. My Pinterest Boards range from fancy nail art to healthier versions of traditional recipes to creative birthday party decoration ideas. Also, one project that I've always wanted to work on for quite a while now includes a DIY Pinterest-Inspired Picnic with an aesthetically pleasing picnic layout. With the help of my friend Maya, we were able to create the picnic of our dreams!

Sweet Tooth Cravings at Ice Monster

Weight going up....on a Tuesday! Last Tuesday, three friends and I decided to drop by Ice Monster in Walnut Creek to satisfy our sweet tooth cravings. While I prefer to savor my sweets after dinner time, I have a friend who literally eats sweets at every meal. As unbelievable as that previous statement sounds, it's true - which explains why we went here during lunch time, haha! Just warning you ahead of time, you best avoid reading this blog post if you're hungry or you may regret it! Now, on to the drool-worthy photos ;)

Umami Burger Tasting

It's always a fun and invigorating experience to explore an unfamiliar city all the while hitting up four restaurants back-to-back with a good friend who shares the same passion and love for food as you do. Throwing it back to one of the most memorable days I've had in a while - exploring Oakland with Bay Area food photographer and friend Jeremy Chung. Thanks to Jeremy, I had the honor of experiencing my first food tasting at Umami Burger in Oakland.
