National Grilled Cheese Day

One of my favorite foods to eat with soups and chilis is grilled cheese. To have an entire day dedicated to it makes it that much more of an awesome food! A couple of friends and myself visited one of Miami's best grilled cheese places, Ms. Cheezious. If you are a lover of grilled cheese, (of the varying types) definitely visit this place when you visit Miami.

Italy 2017: Rome Ceiling Edition

What's fascinating about the buildings in Rome is that they exuded beauty everywhere from the floor patterns, walls, and ceilings. While in Rome one thing I became fascinated with was the beautiful frescoes (paintings on the ceiling). After a while, I began to walk into every building and automatically look up.

These are a few pictures I was able to get. Enjoy! 😊😊

We have finally moved into the last segment of my 4-month Italian adventure. Make sure you have read my other blogs on the other cities I visited while in Italy. Those posts include the cities of Tivoli (Villa Adriana & Villa d'Este), Florence, Venice, Orvietto, and Milan.

Among the BEAUTIFUL architecture that makes Rome such a fantastic place, so does the food. Below you will see images of the meals I consumed and the names of the restaurants (if I can remember).

Spain 2017: Madrid

Madrid, Spain. What a great city, my friend and I called it the New York of Spain. If you have been to both let me know what you think? Enjoy these pictures of my trip to Spain!

We took a tour of the city center and got delicious churros, I don't remember where we got them from but just Google best churros in Madrid.
