Update: A Piece of me in May+Packages+Sakura Matsuri

It seems like I never post anything on time nowadays....I don't have any excuse though....

here's another late A Piece of me....in May.


I like.....
  • that my one & only sister & her family are going to visit us (I haven't seen them since 2008).
I don't like.......
  • that I have been buying too much clothes and still nothing looks good on me....:(
  • too much rain for the whole week....
  • my still annoying neighbors and now they're having sex like mad people...haha....
I want you to know.......
  • Can someone tell me how to make your pictures huge on blog???
I've planned......
  • to try harder to lose weight...do more exercise and a healthy diet...
  • to practice physical therapy again...
I want to say to someone special......
  • (belated)Happy Mother's Day Mama!!!!We Love You so much.....

the very sweet Lulu (Luluchinadoll) sent me a package full of milk teas, candies & other goodies
which really made my day!!!

Thanks Lulu......**hugs**

I also won another giveaway!!!thanks to Maria of Lulu Letty ( do visit her blog she's one of my favorites...)
I got a $25 gift certificate from beta boutique
and here's what I bought a pretty sheer floral skirt...

and ELF Cosmetics had a 60% off sale on their studio line, I've always wanted to try ELF Studio blushes as a lot has been raving about it.......so here's my loot...
more blushes, eyeshadows & brushes.....

and here are some photos from the Cherry Blossom Festival last April 10 in Washington, DC








then after a very tiring day of walking around the district we had dinner at

Phillip's Seafood Buffet
301 Light Street
Baltimore, MD 21202
(410)685-6600



the next day we went shopping....
I got some cheap shoes at Urban Outfitters....


and lunch at

La Tasca Spanish Tapas Bar & Restaurant
201 East Pratt Street
Baltimore, MD 21202
410.209.2562


I highly recommend the tasting menus..we had meat tapas & seafood tapas which are so good...we also had Paella Valenciana which for me isn't really that tasty...I didn't get the chance to take some pics of the food....



That's all for now....as I still have a lot of things to do today!!!
Thanks for dropping by...XOXO
