Hiatus OVER! Vegan Options at Mad Mex & Trip Planning!


Well...long time...no write, eh!?  It's been a MONTH!?  OMG!  Sorry folks!  LOTS has been happening - so much that I can only share bits at a time.  First off...I have switched or should I say added on more tasks at work.  I'm now in sale in addition to many of my other 'jobs' there.  It's been good so far which makes me smile because the first quarter is the hardest so I am optimistic!

Then last weekend hubby and I went to Mad Mex in Erie and I was told by my brother in law that they had vegetarian options but I was almost overwhelmed by HOW MANY they had and vegan, too!  Woot!  Let's just say this is my new favorite place and I can't wait to go back!  I opted for the Angry Hippie Burrito! Yes!!!!  They have Tofutti Sour Cream and Daiya Cheese to make nearly anything vegan!  DOUBLE YAY!  I don't know why I didn't get a pic of the actual plate but the burrito was HUGE - it was the biggest one I have ever seen, actually!

But the food was just part of the experience!  I just LOVED the atmosphere!  The colors were rich and dark with brighter yellow accents!  The lighting was amazing!  The art work was on the verge of grunge but was totally rockin' it all over the place!  The tin and metal lighting and art was throughout the place as well!  I posted more pics on my instagram if you are interested in more!

I completely fell in love with this place!



Here was one of the lights!  Very cool!

Well, since I am writing this blog post in a hurry and from a 2nd account I will get right to the next part of my post!

I have been writing all along - while I was away!  I have been writing more and more for The Raw Food World News Site more specifically their Recipe Section!  It's been FUN!

Then...Matt has been doing live hang outs on Tuesday Nights so I have been trying to attend those as well!  I've been learning a lot from them!

I should be getting my next shipment next Tuesday so I will be sure to take pics of what I got!  Lots of cool stuff!
I've also been shopping in preparation to our trip for The Breakers that is rapidly approaching!  We will be going in March!

The more I learn about the place the more I feel as tho I will be out of my comfort zone...I mean...I'm NOT a girlie-girl!

So this is one of the outfits I grabbed recently!  I ended up getting a few more and the red/black dress (not pictured) I ended up really liking!  More on that down the road!

I plan on catching up on blog commenting over the next week!  I have missed you all terribly!  Please drop me a note - can't wait to hear from you!

Happy Weekend!
