CARLO'S BAKERY- CAKE BOSS :)

So the past week was so much fun! My boyfriend and I left April 6th in the evening and headed to Atlantic City. His birthday was on April 7th. We did absolutely nothing and it was great. :] We're not much into the club scene, and plus not much would be going on on a Wednesday night. We pretty much relaxed together and bummed around in the hotel room together. The hotel we stayed at has THE BEST PIZZA we've ever tried together. SOO SOO SOO GOOD!!! We've been craving it so that's what we ate for dinner the first night there. We didn't gamble too much. The bf tried the roulette table while we were passing by to get my morning coffee. He put down $100 and was down to $20. I said put it on #34. IT HIT!!!!! :))) That pretty much paid for our yummy breakfast! :)


It was just really nice spending time with him. Its seriously been a long time since we even had a chance to just cuddle while watching a movie. =/ 


We left Friday morning and when we got back home we decided to go to this Ramen place we just discovered!!! I WAS SOOO HAPPY!!!!! I was afraid they would suck because we've never heard of this place.... BUT they are GREAT!!!! :) 


After our delicious dinner we wanted to go hang out at my cousins house but she wasn't around so we decided to go to Hoboken, NJ!!! I've been obsessed with the show Cake Boss on TLC. We watched a few episodes before we left A.C so it only made sense to visit!! 


I was so excited! :p The only thing that sucked was the traffic on the way there and the fact that there is NOOOO parking!!! NONE!!! We ended up parking in a garage. Then when we got there, there was a line outside the bakery. Then when we got inside there was about an hour wait. It's SO crowded in there I started to get cranky because people were breathing down your neck, and it just wasn't pleasant. Unfortunately, I didn't get to see ANYONE from the show. They are usually there in the morning and we got there later. =( I was still excited to be there despite the miserable workers and how I was left there alone! haha! I didn't realize their goodies were so expensive!! I dropped about $50 on a few things. It's worth it once in awhile and it was lovely to have had the chance to check out the place. I know a lot of people from all over the U.S. come to check it out and I live an hour away.  Here's a picture of the mini tiramisu! SO DELICIOUS! I wish I could make this!



YUM!!!

I think in the future. Actually, WAY future, I'll get my wedding cake from this bakery. <3 Speaking of wedding... my cousin's wedding is THIS SATURDAY! I can't believe it's so soon. Everyone is going all out! I don't have anything ready but my dress! Pretty excited about this!! =) 

Anyway, I just keep rambling. After Carlo's Bakery we headed to the city since we were 10 minutes away from NY. Since my bf works in NY he's been wanting to show me his office! :) We swung by his office and the security is crazy because they had to make me my badge just to get through. It was really amazing in there. It's so modern and it looks more like a museum than an office! I've never seen so much free food before in my life. I had the best iced coffee made by the bf and some salsa chips :) I think I may have to visit him again just for the coffee! :p

Limitless

I watched Limitless last night and it was strange. I'm kind of confused about the ending. I guess it's something you have to piece together with your own imagination? I thought the movie instantly sucks in the viewer because my eyes were glued to the screen. There were some scenes that gave me goosebumps but other than that it was interesting. I was debating between Limitless and The Adjustment Bureau. I chose Limitless only because TAB is categorized under "Romance" and "Sci-Fi" and I wanted to see something with more action! :)


Anyway, I'm cleaning my dirty room doing some seriously needed SPRING CLEANING. I brought my Spring/Summer clothes up from the basement. I feel so lazy right now! Looking at my room makes me feel so overwhelmed! haha I have no idea where to start! I should do a before and after pic for fun but I'm just way too embarrassed by the before picture...even for my own viewing pleasure. 


My cousins wedding is on April 16th! I'm not even close to being prepared for it but at this point I really don't care! I'm just concerned about my hair because I'm not very good at styling hair. This week is my boyfriends 26th birthday!! Geez it's so weird seeing that number on the screen. We're escaping away to Atlantic City together. Just going to relax since we haven't been able to spend much time together during the past few months. I'm excited! =) 


I need to get back to cleaning before I curl up underneath my blankets and pass out!! 


Have a nice day :)
