I’m a Sagittarius! WTF is an Ophiuchus?
(Just an FYI: WTF translates to "What the filth" LOL) Just in case you've been living under a rock, I wanted to let you all know that there's been a change in the zodiac sign chart. This past Thursday the internet was going berserk over the news about the zodiac sign change. When I first heard about it, I was dumbfounded. I didn't believe it til' I saw with my own eyes and than I saw it -- Instead of being a Sagittarius (Birthday is Dec 16th), I am now an OPHIUCHUS. WTF? I can't … [Read more...]

The Secrets Of Chefs: What They’ll Never Tell You
As a mom of 3 very hungry children, I often cook dinner almost every day of the week. It's more economical, I know exactly what I putting into every dish I make and the kids love a home-cooked meal, especially my husband. But for me, time away from the kitchen is a blessing in disguise. I don't have to worry about what to make, what time I should start dinner and the mess that is made after everything is done. I love to cook but the one thing I do not like is cleaning the kitchen after … [Read more...]
Easy Recipe: Buffalo Chicken Meatballs
When I cook, I rarely use a recipe. I cook how my mother and grandparents taught me. A little bit of this, a little it of that and make sure you taste as you go along. Learning how to cook was fairly easy for me because I grew up in the kitchen with my family. I was always fascinated how they would just add ingredients and rarely measure anything and it was the greatest meal ever. That is how I cook today for my family. I'm like a Latina Rachael Ray because she doesn't measure either. … [Read more...]
Shame On You Ben & Jerry’s!
Just when I thought I was gonna to start eating right, exercising and drinking lots of water, I discovered the best ice cream ever created in the world (ok, at least in my opinion). It's called Ben and Jerry's Peanut Brittle Ice Cream. It's so rich, creamy and divine. It has pieces of peanut brittle mixed in with a luscious caramel swirl that fits perfectly well with ice cream. It's even better in a sugar cone. Now how that's for dieting?? LOL Disclosure: I was not compensated by Ben … [Read more...]
Sunday’s Storm
Earlier today the tri-state area was issued a tornado warning. How crazy is that?! In New York? Yup! I know a few years ago there was a small tornado that hit a few houses several miles away so tornadoes are not a rare thing in New York, unfortunately. Anyway, before taking the video below, my husband and I were just chilling out on the sofa when suddenly we heard lots of rain & thunder. So we looked outside and this is what we saw: Thunder Storm in NY from New York Chica on … [Read more...]
I’m Raising A Liar
Not by choice, that's for sure. It's my 13 year old. For some strange reason he feels the need to lie. I have no idea why. My husband and I have told him numerous times that liars will go nowhere and will always get caught. What does he not understand?? For Gods sake, he's 13, not 3. I would think that by age 10 kids would know the difference between lying and telling the truth - not my son. No way! He's lied about his homework way too many times. Just yesterday, his Math … [Read more...]
