March Wrap Up

Afternoon Everyone!!

Due to the severe lack of blogging you can tell that March was no ordinary boring month. It went so fast my head spun!! I like to think of this blog as something I can 1. use to keep my memories 2. remind me what I actually do with my life :). So here is my March wrap up (courtesy of my trusty sidekick- Lilly planner):

March began with our Junior League Event which I blogged about a couple times- Kids in the Kitchen- overall it was really fun and I think the kids had a good time as well. That same weekend I went to my first Tastefully Simple Party, which was really fun. You know you are definitely a yuppie woman when (1. any excuse for a get together is excuse enough and 2. you love quick and easy cooking "enhancers") you step into these parties! I bought a couple different things a beerbread mixture, a strawberry ball  dip mix and The Trio- a packet of three different types of dips, perfect for parties.
I have yet to try anything, but I am sure there will be an occasion soon!

The next two weekends were spent celebrating my favorite saint- St. Patrick!! We celebrated in Federal Hill and in my neighborhood- Canton. Canton is known for it's Irish festivities, we have entire square dedicated to the Irish- O'Donnell Square. Check out some fun pictures! As much as I love being Irish I think I was definitely tuckered out after two weeks of celebrating!
 At Mother's in Federal Hill!
You can't see but I promise I had green pants on!! 

This was the first nice day in FOREVER! Chose to bring out my "green" Lilly skirt


This past weekend I was able to cross something off my life bucket list: Atlantic City!

My good friend turned the big 2-5 on Saturday so she wanted to try something new (new for all of us actually!) Baltimore is about three hours away from AC so we packed up our things and headed to the "Boardwalk Empire". Now I am a huge fan of the show so I was super pumped to get there but as I suspected it was not really my cup of tea :(. I don't know how to play card games so us girls just played the penny slots (I won $50 by the way- paying for my share of the hotel!) and everyone smoked which drove my allergies up the wall! It was a wonderful time hanging out with my girlfriends...although next time I'm suggesting somewhere tropical! 

 First time on the slots
The girls at Angeloni's II restaurant in AC
Just realized we are sitting infront of a Yankees poster...ICK!!! Go Sox!

Even though it wasn't my scene I really did have fun and I'm proud of myself for trying something new! Next stop...VEGAS!

Finally last but not least... it was Fabulous BFs birthday on Tuesday... sadly he is so swamped at work he couldn't even enjoy it! We did get to celebrate on Sunday night by going to our absolute favorite sushi place- Sushi Hanna. If you are ever in Baltimore I highly recommend the rolls are HUGE and delicious! It is BF and my goal to try all the different sushi places around Baltimore- Sushi Hanna still takes the cake!

I hope that everyone's March was fun and fabulous! I am really just waiting for spring to happen! Come on warm weather! It's time for some SEERSUCKER!

TaTa!
