sunday overdose
9 Maythis weekend was my cousin walters birthday, so like most sundays where we end up at my parents for lunch, that’s exactly how this day started…. except with an overdose of sugar! the guys spent the morning on the couch watching soccer and us girls stayed outside enjoying the beautiful weather and admiring my mothers blooming garden. then after a typical feast of food, we ended this meal with two amazing desserts, one, a candy birthday cake made by my brother mimmo and his girlfriend nikki, (both not too shabby in the kitchen) and the other a pineapple cheese cake that my mom surprised us with after i had mentioned the night before that it had been years since we had it. it was definitely a treat for all of us! we spent the rest of the afternoon in a sugar comma, just long enough to regain some energy for an evening out, to continue the birthday celebration. so around 9:00, a few of us met for some appetizers (don’t ask how we even had room to eat more) at my family restaurant, then went to a club on the strip ( can’t remember the last time i was in a club, and when we got there, i realized why it had been so long…. not my scene these days) regardless, i was with good people, which meant a good time. happy birthday wally!!!
here’s some pictures of the day!

a good cause
8 Mayso friday night was our big charity event supporting HelpingHands, which was held at the salon i work at. it was such a success. we had more than 200 people come out to support this great cause. we offered tons of salon services like, blowouts, waxing, facials, manicures, airbrush tanning, and makeup applications. we had a lounge set up outside with a bar, dj and food provided by my families restaurant, ferraro’s. not to mention the fashion show we had with clothing provided by saks. it really ended up being a great evening. so here’s a couple pics i wanted to share!
happy friday!!!!!
