New YOUTUBE app for KIDS

IMG_0157

It's finally here! YouTube just launched their new YouTube Kids app. You guys don't know how long I have been waiting for this! The app has so many great features made just for kids. The speech search is one of Leanne's favorite features as it actually understands what she is saying. I love how it's such a safe place for kids with no pop-ups and it even has a sleep timer. I can now fall asleep without having to take the tablet away or having to worry about what they're watching.

After downloading the app my girls have newly discovered great educational shows (for younger kids) such as Mother Goose Club and others.

The app is available now. If you have kids, make sure to download it.

YouTube acaba de lanzar su nueva aplicación YouTube Kids. Ustedes no saben cuánto tiempo he estado esperando esto! La aplicación tiene tantos grandes características que son sólo para niños. La búsqueda de voz es una de las características favoritas de Leanne porque la aplicación realmente entiende lo que ella está diciendo. Me encanta la forma en que es un lugar seguro para los niños sin pop-ups y incluso tiene un reloj automático. Ahora puedo dormir sin tener que apagar o tener que preocuparme de lo que están viendo.

Después de usar la aplicación mis chicas han descubierto recientemente programas educativos (para niños pequeños) como Mother Goose Club y otros.

La aplicación está disponible ahora. Si usted tiene hijos, asegúrese de bajarla.

What to do with old bras?

IMG_0223-2

A few years ago I bought a great looking bra from Victoria Secret. Two and a half years later it started showing signs of an 'old' bra. I mean, I wore this bra pretty often and the more I washed it the less it would fit. Instead of shrinking it would expand. What I didn't realize was that the band on the bra was too loose because of it's age. I was really disappointed because it was my favorite bra! 
You know that feeling when you love something so much and you simply can't hold on to it anymore? Well.. that was the feeling I had when I opened that bin and just dumped the bra out! Thankfully, I don't have to feel that way anymore. 

We all know the saying "certain things get better with age" but bras are not one of them! 
Old bras can be uncomfortable with wire sticking out and loose bands. These are problems we all experience with old bras... and what do we do when this happens? We throw them out! 
Today I'll be sharing with you an incredible way to earn money towards a new bra for those old useless bras that belong in the garbage.

Best of Astoria

IMG_9972-4

Astoria has come a long way since it's early Dutch and German days in the 17th century. The people who inhabit this now-popular middle class neighborhood are Greeks, Middle Easters, Brazilians, latino Americans, Bangladeshis and Asians. Astoria is a melting pot for every ethnicity.

The amazing thing about this area is that you can find a Thai restaurant next to a cafe next to an Australian restaurant next to a bakery next to a... you get the drift. It's so accessible by train + bus and only 15 minutes away from Manhattan and did I mention the incredible view you get from Astoria Park of Manhattan.

random fact: I met my now husband in Astoria:)

In these last few years we have been noticing the amount of rich-ters ( not hipsters ) moving in the area. You'll find low-key bars like Let Love Inn serving unique cocktails such as the Dirty Brunette which almost feel Williamsburg-ish. Let me get to the point.. the demographic is changing drastically and I see it as a good thing. The neighborhood is definitely coming UP.

random fact: Tony Bennett grew up in Astoria.

We all know Astoria as the place to find the best restaurants in NYC. & by the best I mean great, fresh food that will keep you coming back for more!

It's very tough narrowing down the best of Astoria because to be quite frankly, there's a lot of great restaurants/bakeries/tavernas and cafes. In todays post I'll be focusing on two of my favorites and most recently visited restaurants.
