Los Angeles trip for my birthday

My birthday past a couple of weeks ago and the hubby took me to L.A. I had so much fun and it was our first mini vacation without the kids! I loved it and I needed it more than ever. Get away from the stress for 3 days! I want to go back. I shopped here and there but we mostly ate. And the hotel was beautiful. His friend works for the Marriott so he hooked it up. The rooms usually cost anywhere from $105-$160 or so a night. We got it for $45. Really good deal! On with the pics!

I introduce my husband! We were waiting in line for The Boiling Crab to open. There was already a lot of people in line just like us and just like last time. I know to go early(before they open) so that we don't have to wait in a big ass line




so excited and hungry to get my grub on!!! Best believe I tore that shit up!?!

mmm all that creole, southern style cooked crawfish and shrimp. The flavors just explode in your mouth! I love this place, the one we have here in town sucks compared to this. We ate here twice during our stay.




Hubby's damage! Barely nothing! Probably cause he ate rice with his. I rarely eat rice so I was able to eat a lot more! Also I'm just naturally a fatty!

Marriott Residence Inn! I love this hotel! It was just like having our own studio! Equipped with a stove, microwave, full size fridge, flat screen tv, dining area and more! I would totally live in a place like this if I didn't have kids!







These little donuts are filled with I think a vanilla custard. They are so spongy and good! I wish I bought more but I think I was to full when I pass it again. It was from Lee's sandwiches and it was fresh baked with this cool donut machine! Too bad she wouldn't let me take a picture


hubby bought soju and I drank a little mixed with pina colada. But to be honest, since march of this year, I can't drink. Long story short, in march I had the WORST hangover ever at 4 in the afternoon. So I drank a capful of this stuff mixed with hella juice

bedtime!

Lee's sandwiches(banh mi). Not a fan at all. I'm sorry but I've had wayyy better. The bread was so tough and hard and not much in it at all. I was expecting so much more and I hate being disappointed when it comes to food.


a shot with the hubby(he pleaded I take one shot)

MAC bamboo(my fave!), texture, magnetic fields, and I believe brash(?) from the spiced chocolate quad.


natural daylight!




On our way to Roscoe's!

The famous Roscoe's chicken and waffles! That sweet and salty southern goodness!




Nail Polish haul!!! Skylark Nails is the best place ever!

I hope this works well like the givenchy!


orly mint mojito & new york glitter

This concludes my trip! Not many pics to post but the uploading part of this takes freaking forever, I just looked at the clock and it's been an hour to upload all these pics. Sheeesh, no wonder why I lagged on this... Till next time, toodles!
