I'm In NYC Plus Athleta Sale 25% off Everything!

Hi everyone! You may be wondering why there's no Fit Review Friday. I'm currently in NY because my grandma is not doing well. She's 101 which is so amazing. She is my favorite person and my heart is broken to see her at this stage in life. When she hit 85 I started preparing myself but you can never be prepared for something like this. It is gut wrenching and hard to look at, hard to endure hearing her mumble. This is the first time I'm losing someone this close to me. I was raised by her for 35 years. 😢 I am honestly not sure how long I'll be in NY for. I won't have a fit review until I get back to Atlanta. It'll be hard for me to focus on anything else, so I may not be posting much. I don't mean to be such a downer for a Friday. I'm sorry.  I'm not very much in the mood for shopping, but Athleta is having a sale - 25% off everything! Here are my picks.   Seasoft Bubble Hem Hoodie (I ordered this before I left for NY) Pranayama Restore Rib Wrap

My New York City Trip and My Grandma's 100th/101st birthday!

  I wanted to share my New York trip from last month. It was the first time I went back for Lunar New Year in a long time, and it was also my birthday weekend, so we ended up celebrating both at the same time.  My mom tends to make some of the food at home, and the rest of the dishes comes from a restaurant. I really like the soup which has some fish and crab meat. Steamed lobster is always a favorite. My sister really likes the clam dish. There's a jellyfish dish that my brother loves. I really like the fish and tofu dish. The mushroom and abalone dish are not my favorite but I'll eat it in small pieces.  Family picture time!  This is my favorite cake ever. It's Lady M's Chocolate Mille Crêpe  cake. It's so good. My sister got it for me! They do ship if anyone wants to try it. Right now they are offering free standard shipping until April 10th! I'm tempted to order one. 😍 My grandma gave me the prettiest red envelope this year! Red envelopes have come a long w

Weekend Trip to New York for my Grandma's 100th Birthday

  I surprised my Grandma this weekend and flew to New York to celebrate her 100th birthday! I'll resume regular posting on Tuesday for the Lululemon drop. Although,  Athelta's new arrivals has me way more excited these days. I arrived at Laguardia Airport late Friday night. It was empty! I had my brother pick me up from the airport and when I walked in my mom started screaming and my grandma was so surprised and happy to see me! So much, that she forgot to take her pills and then she told me the next morning she was so exited she couldn't fall asleep.  My Grandma with her great-grandson and great-grand daughter. My sister just had surgery on her gums and couldn't eat anything that was hard, so she ordered Wagyu beef. I tried a piece! Practically melts in your mouth. My parents ordered take out from one of their favorite restaurants in Flushing and also cooked a couple of dishes as well. Like this fish dish.  Chilean Sea Bass - it's so good. Went to a grocery store
