Orange With A Peel
This morning I went out to breakfast at a place near my apartment called "Orange With a Peel". One of my favorite things on the menu here is- "Frushi". As the name suggests, it's fruit sushi. Today's frushi featured mango with coconut rice and strawberries. I also ordered the homemade granola with strawberries, blueberries and vanilla almond milk. So delicious!

Blown Away
I love when my little sister comes to visit me. Our time together usually consists of shopping, eating portillo's chopped salads, and self-served froyo (Froyo on State Street is our current favorite). But when she came to visit me last Thursday and Friday, we added a new activity to our itinerary- blow outs!
"Blowtique" is a new blow-out boutique that opened in early June and offers customers a convenient and efficient blow-out. There are four different blow-outs on their menu, all of which are $35 bucks (They offer up-styles too, which are $70). I went with "The Deep Ellum Dallas"-big body curls with a dramatic bounce. Dramatic bounce is an understatement (see picture below)- my hair was HUGE!
Don't get me wrong- I love big hair and lots of volume. But this was a little intense- even for me! Luckily, I got the blow out done Friday morning so by Friday evening my hair had settled down (Picture from Friday evening below). Overall, I really like this place and plan on going back- especially for special occasions. They also said that they do fun "girls night out" events- where you can bring in food/wine with a bunch of friends and get ready for a fun night out on the town. Next time, I plan on trying one of their 3 other blow out styles with a little less volume ;)
