My Weekend: Treasure Island Flea Market & Fort Mason & Chores Sunday

 Saturday: Got up really early to go to the Flea Market at Treasure Island! It was superfun and super crowded. The was a lot of venders sell vintage items, succulents, clothes, doggie treats, socks, and so much more. It was very interesting to see toys from the 70's, 80's, and the 90's.


 I spy Rainie......





Where there's food trucks, there's people ..... LOT of people



Andy's Grub Truck
 Deliciousness....... Heart attack.....


 New plant for my office! Looking at this makes me super happy!




 Fort Funston again!

 After countless failed shots by Melanie... Kylie got it with the first try... Good Job!!!
 

 Mom with the cousins!



 Hiking up these stair was tiring! And tiring is an understatement! We were at the beach. Wayyyy back there in the picture and we are almost at the top!! Rainie was a trooper! She was the only one that didn't complain! HAHA

 As for Sunday: I cleaned the house, did laundry, make food for the week, washed all my bedding, watched a movie, did a clay mask, played Just Dance for 3 hrs, wait for my brother to come home to give him all the snacks I got him and did an eye mask before falling asleep! Pretty productive according to me.



Picked this up today! We did an amazing job, Emily!!!

My Shopping: Look what came in the Mail & Daiso

YAY my SaSa ordered finally came!!!! I waited over 2 weeks for this! Order came in on 4/21/2014.

Be Creation Bamboo Charcoal Konjac Facial Cleaning Sponge- Soaked it in water and it expanded in size. I am not sure what this is suppose to do. Feels like a slightly slimy sponge that is heart shaped and black. Washed my face with it but don't see the difference...If my face breaks out from this, I would be really mad!!!!

4/24/2014- Did not break out from this sponge. Yet I don't see a difference with my face. Will not be getting this again.

3M- Nexcare Acne Dressing with Bonus eye mask (tried this as soon as I got it and I love it. The eye mask made the skin around my eyes feel really refreshed when I got up in the morning. As for the Acne Dressing , it is like a bandage the goes over the pimple. It did not make my pimple go away in the morning but it was a smaller bump. Still a good thing! Will try it again tonight!)

4/24/2014- One more pimple left. Yay. Maybe it is working?

BeautyMate Bright Up Nano Eye Mask- So far this is what I am loving most from this purchase! I can really feel my dark circle less dark....I hope this true....

Kao Steam Eye Mask-Will start using this when I finish with the Bright up mask.

Dr. G Oil Control Intensa- Very light lotion. Still trying it to see if I like it!

Hot Brush Eyelash Curler- ehhhh. My lashes are short and almost non-existent so this doesn't make too much of a difference.

Then I realized that I forgot to order more cotton so I went to Diaso to get cotton squares and a case to hold my fake lashes. 




My Weekend: Color Me Mine & Hotpot Garden & Fort Funston & Zumba

My weekend was not to a good start. =( I got sick over the week and took Nyquil before sleeping on Friday night and I got up naturally at 12pm on Saturday!!!!! This normally would not matter too much on a weekend but I had plans to meet Emily at 1pm. And I was late....... =(

 Color Me Mine : Can you guess which one I painted? Hope they turn out nice..fingers crossed!

Hotpot Garden: Happy Birthday Emily!!

 Fort Funston: Look at the beautiful ocean. Its so calming, so large and free. Sometimes when I am stressed, looking at the ocean my worries washes away for a moment and my mind is clear. Too bad this feeling is not forever... =(


 Cousin & Doggies & Me


 Look at all the doggie friends. Fort Funston is full of dog and they are all so CUTE!!!


 Posing on a cliff with the ocean as the background! She really needs a hair cut!


 Wonder what my grandma is thinking about???


 Truly the most lazy dog ever!!! Every time we walked by a shady spot she would just lay there like that! "Come on Biscuit, lets go!" said >100 times in 3 hrs!


 Trying on wedding dresses at Pet's Mart! They are so cute!!!!!


Biscuit in a sexy dress haha! Love these sisters!

Ended Sunday night with dancing Zumba with my mom and cousin! I suck at dancing but its a good excerise!

My weekend: 85 Degrees & Gilroy Premium Outlet & Golden Gate Bridge & Saru

This weekend was quite eventful for me. I drove A LOT and spent A LOT of money but over all I feel like I got a good bargain for the things I purchased. Both Saturday and Sunday were random, just the way I like it. My original plan for Saturday was to drive up to Stockton to visit my brother and Livermore outlet with my mom but he is in the middle of finals week and did't have time for us so we decided to drive to Fremont for some seasalt ice coffee. 

OMG I am addicted. 

Sea salt coffee from 85 Degrees ( spend over 10 dollars to get 10% off and over $20 to get a free mug!)



My shopping haul! (There's more but those are gift so I don't want to post them)



Tea set from Disney. Tea pot, sugar and creamer set. I love Mickey Mouse and Minnie Mouse. (In the past I have been told the I laugh like Minnie Mouse. LOL)


Hypnose Drama Mascara, Lalic Love & Rose Macron 
Both colors are perfect for the spring and summer!


I found these smartwool socks on sale at The North Face outlet. They feel SO so SO good. I wore the light blue pair today already! I am in LOVE! $7.99 each! (best bargain of the day)


Aasics. I got a pair about a year ago and love it. I wanted a all black pair so I can wear it to work and to the gym. I feel that black is a color that goes with everything. 

By the end of the night I was exhausted from shopping. I really do feel like shopping is a workout!!


Then Sunday I got up at 9:30 am to do laundry, clean the house, put my shopping wins away, make lunch and get ready all before 12:30pm! I am quite please with myself. Then I decided that I didn't want to waste my day away so I asked my cousins if they wanted to just go out for a walk with me. To my surprise they were up for it so we went to Chrissy Field, Fort Mason, and Golden Gate Bride. The weather was perfect, sunny but not too warm or too cold. I love the fact that there wasn't so much wind that I feel blown away!


San Francisco is such a beautiful city!


Rainie is my model for the day! She got a lot of attention from strangers and met a few doggie friends along the way. 


I can sit here and watch this all day! Such a calming site!


For dinner Emily and I came to Saru for dinner.


Spicy Cracker: Tempura seaweed with spicy tuna on top! So delicious that we had a second order!


Almost like the spoonful of happiness from KOO. Spoonful of Halibut (seared Ankimo) & Kanpachi (Amberjack with truffle oil) <-- truly amazing


Sashimi plate (unknown fish on the top left is my favorite) It was buttery soft and tasted so prefect without soy sauce or wasabi 


Of all dishes, this one would be my favorite! Naked Scallop! Real crab meat with scallop in every bite. I felt like I went to heaven for dinner! 

Ending my weekend with this awesome meal round up my weekend and made it feel complete!

<3 Tiffany

Thanks Emily for suggesting Saru!

Skin Care: Mask I am currently loving!

These 3 mask are the ones that I am currently loving. All 3 clay mask does a little something different for my face. The Menard one is good for Acne and keeping my skin clear. The Origin one keeps my face feeling clean. After using this one my face feels squeaky clean! And this big pink tub of Borghese is for brightening. I have only used this a few time but so far loving it. I need to use it more on a regular base to see if it does what it claims!

Tonight I used the Menard one because I have a few pimples near my jaw line. =( Need to get rig of them!!!

Good night world!

Shopping: Sephora VIB Sale

I went shopping this passed weekend and come home with a little of somethings. This might seem little but it cost a lot even with the sephora 15% off.

Marc Jacob Daisy: 250 points
I got this purely because I like the bottle and think it looks cute. I wanted this perfume a few years ago, but when I went shopping with my friend and asked her what she thought of the scent on me she said, "Tiff, you smell like a drunken flower". Therefore I never got this perfume.

Sephora Face brush: $46
I was trying on the foundation and got suckered into getting this brush. It is the largest brush I own and I love it. It is soft and fluffy and does a wonderful job blending.

Porfessional Face Primer by Benefit: $32
I always had one and this is just a replacement. I love this one because of the texture and most importantly, it doesn't break me out.

Hourglass Brow Pencil: $32
I just finished my 3rd brow pencil from MAC and thought to give this one a try. I really like the slanted style of the pencil and the color matches me so well. So far I am in love!

Hourglass Immaculate Foundation: $55
I saw Judy's review of this foundation from ItsJudy'sLife and was thinking "Wow! I need to try it!" It states that it is oil controlling and over 4 weeks of continuous use, the face will be less oily. I really need that oil control I have acne prone skin and a really oily forehead. I have been using this for the last 4 days and I am loving it! It has a powder finish and drys rather quickly. Medium to Full coverage. The sale associate told me that if your skin is not truly oily this can cause dry patches. 

OLE Henriksen Grief Relief Cleansing Cloths: $15
OMG i fell in love with this too. I know really I need to stop falling in love with everything I try! As i was testing out the Hourglass foundation and getting color matched, I had to take off the foundation a few times to get the correct color and this was the wipe that I used to remove the foundation. Everything came off with just 1 wipe and my skin felt so fresh after using this wipe. I also read the ingredients and thought this was perfect for my skin.

Total Spending: $180-15%= $153+tax= $167.15

Family Cruise Vacation

I recent just came back from a trip with my parent. We went on a Carnival cruise for 4 day. It was really fun and the best part was the really food availability 24/7. LOL jk Honestly, the best part was to get away from the city life and truly enjoy a vacation with minimal technology and distraction. My parents worked hard most of their lives and waited years for my brother and I to be off on our own. Through this vacation I can truly see how relaxed, happy , and carefree my mom and dad both were (esp my dad). Seeing them that happy made this trip extra enjoyable. 

  

The 10th floor of the ship. Water slides, buffet, stage, outside tanning area.

  

Look at LA as we sailed away from Long Beach. The city looks so beautiful but the ocean looks even better!



Every other day, we (Karyn and I) would find a cute towel animal on our bed. (This one was the only one that I was able to get a picture of before someone came by and destroyed it before I can take a picture (grandma/dad).


Lobster dinner with juicy prawns.


Seared Tuna


Apple Pork Chop (too dry and not tasty at all )


If I lived on this boat. This would be breakfast, lunch and dinner. I love this melted chocolate cake with vanilla ice cream. The warm cake with cold ice cream hits the spot every time!

*drool*


Shrimp cocktail. I was ok with this one, but my dad and Karyn loved it. I believe they had it almost every night.


My mom is a child at heart! I love my mom!


Living life on the edge... Eating Mexican street food....

Mom: I don't want any. I might get sick.
Karyn: You won't. Don't worry.
Me: If it hurt, it will eventually go away...
Mom: ok, I will try a little.

One bite later....

Mom: Here's $5 dollars go get 2 more.

LOL my mom is so funny. She stopped caring about food poisoning after 1 bite of deliciousness! 


Our trip was fun. But next time I want to be on a longer cruise. 4 days really isn't that long!

Dear Blogging World,

I am Tiffany and this little doggie/sister is Rainie and she will most likely be in a lot of my life adventures. A little about myself. I am currently 27 years old working in the science world. I drive almost an hour each day for work ( with traffic). My life is a little boring at the moment so that is the main reason I am starting this blog. But hopefully I will have something interesting to share each week!
