Coffee & Cocktails’ Weekend Guide to Rincón

I feel like I’m a broken record again.  I fell off (like seriously fell off) the blogging wagon.  To say that the fall of 2016 was extremely busy is an understatement.  But I’m back and I hope that 2017 will see me be more organized in my work and personal life so that I can continue to devote the time to some of the other passions in my life, like Coffee & Cocktails!

So if you haven’t already checked out my weekend guide to San Juan, you can check it out here.  When we travel to PR over the summer we usually split up our trip between San Juan and Rincón. Rincón is literally my happy place.  So much so, that every year, during our vacation, we scheme and plot on how we can all quit our day jobs and move to paradise!  One day, one day!

Coffee & Cocktails’ Weekend Guide to San Juan

Streets of Old San Juan

This post has been weeks (and I mean WEEKS) in the making.  It took me a little while to get adjusted to reality after vacation, and then I suffered an extreme laser tag injury that resulted in sporting a black eye for weeks, and then work…blah blah blah…and so I’m finally getting around to finishing this post up!

So now to the good stuff…need a beach getaway that’s easily accessible and relatively affordable?  I’ve got you covered.  Every summer I unwind, relax, and disconnect from reality during my annual pilgrimage to Puerto Rico.  It’s seriously my happy place.

Typically, I primarily spend time in two cities – San Juan and Rincon.  Both cities are vastly different and can offer you a completely different vacation.  So sit back, relax, and start dreaming about your next beach vacay in San Juan…and stay tuned for Part 2 on Rincon!

Three days ago, I woke up with the rest of the country to discover the horrific Pulse shooting.  Since then, it’s been hard to even put into words all of my thoughts and emotions. You see, I’ve lived in Orlando for over 9 years. It’s my home. I work less than 2 miles from Pulse. I live less than  5 miles from Pulse. I pass it multiple times each week.  This tragedy that is all over the news and social media happened in my town, my home, and to my fellow neighbors.  Nothing can prepare you for when something like this happens in your community.

DIY: Stacking Wire Bangles

How-to: Stacking Wire Bangles

I’m sure you’ve seen these stacking wire bangles everywhere lately.  I. AM IN LOVE.  Seriously.  And after seeing some inspiration on Pinterest…I decided to test out making these babies myself.  Then at least I can indulge in having a variety for every outfit and occasion.

I think you’ll find that making these are quite easy once you get the hang of it.
