Disclosure: This is a sponsored post. Thank you for supporting New York Chica. All opinions are always my own. If you live on the East Coast, then you already know that this Winter has hit us all extremely hard. We've had snow every week since December and I think everyone (including me) are sick of the white stuff. Another reason why I'm sick of Winter is because of a nasty virus going around at work. I'm trying to stay away but working at a school becomes almost impossible to stay … [Read more...]

Disclosure: This post is part of a sponsored campaign with Verizon FiOS (#SomosFiOS). All thoughts and opinions expressed here are 100% my own. I remember when I was a little girl, my abuelita (grandmother) would watch her telenovelas (soap operas) for hours at a time in the kitchen while my abuelito watched wrestling in their bedroom. It was their time to unwind alone after dinner. They were both complete opposites when it came to TV shows but were truly meant for each other in many other … [Read more...]

July 4, 2012 by 464 Comments
School's been out for a few weeks here in New York and my kids are becoming "Summer Bums." They want to sleep in, stay indoors (they are complaining it's too hot -- Hello! It's Summer!) and just play video games. Well, I surprised them when I told them I would give them each a weekly packet they would have to complete for this summer. They whined, complained and they gave me the evil eye. I don't care. I know it's summer and they have had a hectic year trying to get good grades but it's … [Read more...]

After making the the collage, I noticed I missed the very first photo - morning. I will definitely post that … [Read more...]

{Giveaway is now closed. #41 is the lucky winner! It's Sujeiry! Congrats!} If you're a child from the 70's like I am, then you've seen the original show, Charlie's Angels with Farrah Fawcett and Jaclyn Smith with their beautiful layered hair and their style of kicking ass.

Throwing high kicks with my skinny legs and landing on the sofa pretending I captured one of the bad guys. Yeah, I … [Read more...]
