No Gloom In June

For me there is no such thing as "June Gloom". I love the month of June, probably because my birthday falls in that month but it also symbolizes the beginning of summer. Even though June isn't always known for its amazing weather in SB I have ignited the birthday party planner in me and the planning festivities for my 21st have begun. Not only am I planning on having various drinks, and an abundant amount at that, I am also going to be venturing DT for the "first" legal time, and eating lots and lots of sweets. Drinks, Dessert, and DT.. that'll be the theme of the night and I can't be more excited for it. 
& what is a 21st birthday celebration without birthday cake shots!

Matilda - The Musical

My friend Will recommended that I go see Matilda so of course I bought tickets because I couldn't pass up the chance to go to a musical. I went to the musical last night and thought it was very entertaining. It had amazing set design and the children that were in it were fabulous singers and dancers. My three favorite actors in it though were Miss.Trunchbull played by a man (Bertie Carvel), Matilda's dad, and one of Matilda's peers with the last name Bogtrotter (Bruce). Maybe I had already made up in my mind that I liked him because his last name had "trotter" in it but his voice was by far the best kids voice. Bruce Bogtrotter also happens to be the character that played the boy that ate all the chocolate cake.. Probably another reason I liked him so much. Even though my seats we quite bad (I've been a spoiled theatre go-er) I thought that overall the show was done really well, considering there were so many little kiddies involved!

Of course after the show we had to go to a bar called Detroit (loved the name since it connected with our American roots) and got my new favorite drink: Mexican coffee. It's espresso, coffee tequila, cream, some other alcoholic mixtures and topped with a sugar garnish.  It was sooo delish.
