Netflix Snacks

-
I'm currently obsessed with a Turkish show on Netflix called Ertugrul. It is a show based on the parents, family, and friends of the founder of the Ottoman Empire. I'm usually not a fan of historical shows, but this is a must-watch with family and friends. The amount of heartache I get from the show drives me insane, but it is absolutely amazing to watch since it is based on history. It also makes you be really thankful for the day and age that we live in in terms of technology, housing, food, and safety.

While I watch Ertugrul on Netflix, I always have a ton of snacks with me, because what's the point of watching something if you don't have snacks?

Some snacks I like to enjoy while watching Ertugrul include:

  • Sadaf Cardamom Tea (just yelp "Arabic grocery store" and you're bound to find it at whichever Arabic grocer you end up at)
  • Carrots, celery, and pita chips with hummus (Mama makes theeee best hummus ever! Her recipe will be posted later on the blog 😉)
  • Glazed Donuts
  • Bavarian Cream Donuts from Dunkin' Donuts 
  • Fruits such as watermelon, blueberries, strawberries—any fruit you name, I like it and eat it while watching my show
  • Mama's Baklava 
  • Acai bowls
What are your favorite snacks to eat while watching Netflix? Be sure to post in the comments section to give me new snack ideas!

Me at the Moonlight Kayak adventure I went on with  my kayaking class earlier in the semester Hello friends! I hope all is well and that life is treating everyone good as can be and that everyone is healthy and safe during this pandemic.  I had written part of this blog post back in February but never got to posting it since I got super busy oops ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ But below I will indicate which parts were written in February and what was written in present day April.  What Should Have Been The February Update I went back to school in January for my second to last semester in undergrad! Which I'm actually kind of sad about. While I do complain about studying a LOT (and anyone that has ever spoken to me in person can attest to this) I genuinely love learning so it is saddening to me that I'm almost done. Speaking of complaining, my smart self decided to take 13 units of biology classes LOL. Will I survive? You guys will find out if I did in May. On top ...

Back to School Healthy Eating Habits

-
Now that college is back in session for everyone (I know it has been in session and I'm a little late but that is what happens when you're taking 17 units haha), you know what that means if you are a commuter, it is time to start packing lunch again! Packing lunch is not only a good way to save money, but it also has a huge impact on your health! Making sure to eat healthy meals with rigorous course work is very important in order to stay focused in school and earn the grades you want.  One of my favorite podcasts to listen to, The Joe Rogan Experience , featured Chris Kresser, an expert in functional medicine. Now what is functional medicine you may ask? It is changing one's lifestyle as a sort of treatment rather than going straight into taking medication. On episode #1037 of  The Joe Rogan Experience, Chris emphasized how what we eat had a big impact on our overall health. While this may seem obvious, people usually only think food helps us in terms of physical heal...

Weeeeellll.... October went by pretty quick.  It's going to be November in a week which is insane. Time has been going by extremely quick but I've made sure to try to make the little moments count most. So since I've last posted I turned 22, woo! This gif will basically be me until next September. Anyways, for my birthday I went to my favorite steakhouse, Fogo De Chao and afterwards and watched Men In Black at the Rooftop Cinema Club . Fogo De Chao is a Brazilian Steakhouse located in several areas in the United States, and lucky me, there is one in San Diego! While I do not like paying for parking, this is one of the few occasions that I don't mind since I'm going to one of my favorite restaurants. If you are a meat lover, this is definitely the place to go. They have a variety of high quality cuts of meat that are all you can eat for $38.95 (lunch) or $58.95 (dinner). Inside Fogo De Chao. Here is the market table which has a variety o...
