Last month, I was invited to have breakfast with Food Network's Aaron McCargo, courtesy of Aunt Jemima. You may not know this but I'm completely obsessed with the Food Network. I know EVERYONE on the network and watch almost every show. If there's ever a blog event featuring ANYONE from the Food Network, I am so there! I first saw Aaron McCargo when he was on the show called Food Network Star back in 2008. He actually won the grand prize of having his own show. I was rooting for him since … [Read more...]

May 21, 2011 by 13 Comments
Earlier this week I had an amazing opportunity that doesn’t happen too often for me. I was recently contacted by Lunchables to join them at Times Square along with other bloggers to help them reach their goal of donating up to one million pounds of fresh fruit to Feeding America AND get a chance of a lifetime to interview Chris O’Donnell (father of 5!) from the TV show NCIS: Los Angeles and movies like Batman and Robin, Scent of a woman and more. Now who’s crazy enough to say no to that? … [Read more...]

Sadly I could not make the JAFRA event but I'm glad La Latina Loquita was able to cover the event for New York Chica. Please give a warm welcome to Victoria Love. NewYorkChica.com was invited to experience a beauty event on behalf of Jafra Cosmetics which was held at Marquee in Manhattan and sponsored by PrettyCity.com. Now I'm a MAC girl through and through, so I was a little skeptical at first. I have very sensitive skin and with the wrong makeup or face-wash, I break out like a teenager … [Read more...]
