Archie Comics: Worlds collide in JUGHEAD THE HUNGER VS. VAMPIRONICA #2!

noreply@blogger.com (Nubia) — Tue, 04 Jun 2019 13:37:00 +0000

Riverdale is over for now but you can still get your dose of Archie Comics every week! I haven't read the Jughead The Hunger comicbook series but I have read the Vampironica series and I was able to jump into Jughead The Hunger VS. Vampironica with ease. It's a fun read and I love the Vampironica storyline. Perhaps I should do some kind of video on this series and how I feel about the Archie Comics darker comicbook series in general.

Here's a sneak peek of Jughead The Hunger VS. Vampironica #2

My Top 5 Geeky Fashion Picks For Spring / Summer.

noreply@blogger.com (Nubia) — Tue, 04 Jun 2019 03:05:00 +0000

It's great to witness how the love of geeky fandom has through fashion, comic books, film, and video games. I believe that movies alone have helped Gen Z discover hidden geeky gems from the '80s and '90s. But let's talk about fashion now. Some apparel that you find at stores and honors our love of geek culture almost looks like straight-up cosplay. Some items are a bit more discreet. Below check out five items from different cool shops I'm smitten with for Spring/Summer.

Cauliflower Pizza Gives Me Caulipower!

noreply@blogger.com (Nubia) — Tue, 04 Jun 2019 00:33:00 +0000

Ready for your dose of Caulipower?! Cool name guys.

I've heard a lot of hype over Cauliflower Pizza during the last year or so but, I am not easily convinced. I'm a New Yorker and trust me when I tell you that I love my gosh darn Pizza. Bread, tons of tomato, cheese... there's nothing quite like a New York slice. When I move to the West Coast I had a hard time, they blame it all on the water. Getting on board with Cauliflower Pizza was a bit much for me but I decided to give it a try because I love eating healthy and I try to add food in my diet that delivers nutrients.

Here's the pizza before I put it in the oven:

Here's after:

Here's me being cute and stuff:

My thoughts:

Honestly, I don't plan to give up my NYC pizza anytime soon. With that being said I could see myself including Caulipower Pizza into my regular diet. Cauliflower delivers some amazing nutrients. It's full of antioxidants like vitamin C and manganese, and even has phytonutrients, vitamin K, and omega-3. I could incorporate Caulipower Pizza more often into my daily life than traditional pizza without feeling guilty. I'll save my NYC slices for cheat days being that I try to eat healthy throughout most of the week. This cauliflower pizza tastes good and easily satisfies my pizza craving. Caulipower didn't disappoint. It was very fresh for an oven pizza and you could eat a lot more of this than DiGiorno (still love you) if you're counting calories.

Mermaids and #MerMay on Instagram.

noreply@blogger.com (Nubia) — Wed, 29 May 2019 23:00:00 +0000

I have a profound love of mermaids. They are such beautiful, mystical creatures and I am smitten with mermaid art. I believe they could be absolutely real. Why not? I hope I bump into one at the beach this Summer. Think about it, humans have only managed to explore about 5% of the ocean floor. That leaves endless room for possibilities! This month I stumbled upon #MerMay on Instagram. It's an art challenge where people draw their take on mermaids all month long. May is practically over but it was fun to follow along and appreciate everyones artistic vision. I also enjoyed people mashing mermaid art up with video game and comicbook characters.

noreply@blogger.com (Nubia) — Mon, 01 Apr 2019 01:42:00 +0000

This post will be short and sweet yet very needed. I love horror movies. I've always been a fan of Chucky from Child's Play. Growing up, I would also get so excited to watch DC Comics Batman The Animated Series. Today my brother forwarded me an Instagram post saying Mark Hamill would be the voice of Chucky in the new Child's Play movie and I was hype so hype! It's like the best of both worlds have collided.

If you love video games and looking stylish, this is a sweet treat for you. Street Fighter is collaborating with UNIQLO UT to drop some Graphic T-Shirts on April or May depending on your region.

I remember playing Street Fighter with my brothers growing up and violently hitting all the buttons on the controller when I couldn't figure out the right combo for moves. It's fun being able to mix up my personal style with memories that bring me so much joy.

After much anticipation, Riverdale spinoff and Archie Comics stylish lady Katy Keene has finally been cast! Welcome, Lucy Hale.

It's that time of the year! All any of us could think of is the warmth, fashion, and beauty that will arrive with the Spring season. I can't wait for light jackets, cropped tops, long skirts, and tons of floral designs. Being able to have brunch while sitting outside sounds like a treat. Being able to lay on the grass with your shoes off while enjoying some music or a great novel sounds like a dream too. Spring also inspires creativity. Create some art and make magic happen.

Feeling Edgy With Rimmel London Stay Matte Liquid Lipstick.

noreply@blogger.com (Nubia) — Fri, 25 Jan 2019 15:33:00 +0000

This Rimmel London Stay Matte Liquid Lipstick is a treat!

It's been a while since I've posted about a lipstick, lipgloss, or any lip color in general. People often talk about that one beauty item they can't go without. For some, it's brows, for others mascara, but for me, it's always been lipstick.

Recently I tried out the Rimmel London's Stay Matte Liquid Lipstick and was impressed with the quality of this lipstick retailing at only $4.99. I can tell you based off personal experience that for a liquid lipstick that offers 12hour wear, Rimmel London delivers. It doesn't get dry or start flaking off your lips like other brands I've tried tend to do. These lipsticks are perfect for any food outing or even a girls night out. The color truly does stay put.

Find some of your favorite foods & snacks such as Avocado Toast, Sushi, Pizza, & more in Rommy's collection. These purses are a foodies dream.

I was very impressed when I discovered that the designer of RommydeBommy, Rommy, makes these purses by hand. She is 27 years old and is currently located in the Netherlands.

Netflix's 'YOU' Reminds Us That Toxic Friendships Have To Go.

noreply@blogger.com (Nubia) — Thu, 17 Jan 2019 16:14:00 +0000

The new year is a great time to reflect on your life and the company you keep. After binge-watching Netflix's YOU, which initially aired on Lifetime based on the novel written by Caroline Kepnes, I was reminded of how much harm you can cause yourself and your mental health specifically by having a toxic best friend or friends in general. 2019 needs to be about loving ourselves, and that has a lot to do with the company we keep.

What's New? Batwoman, Aladdin, Pet Sematary, Daredevil, & More.

noreply@blogger.com (Nubia) — Sun, 14 Oct 2018 03:11:00 +0000

Fall is by far my favorite season for TV shows and Movies. It's actually hard to keep up with everything because there is so much! Some years the entertainment isn't that great while other years it's phenomenal. I'm feeling pretty great about this season so far. It's showering me with great entertainment and there's a lot I have to look forward to.

Inspiration: Fun Fashion This Fall.

noreply@blogger.com (Nubia) — Sun, 14 Oct 2018 01:05:00 +0000

It's so easy to get wrapped up in life's merciless claws and get caught wearing black all the time...

Some of you know what I'm talking about. It's all too relatable. I get mad at myself when I wear all black ensembles too often or live in sweatpants for too long. It makes me feel like I'm stuck in a rut. Clothing and composing outfits have always been an art form for me which is why it's important to stay inspired.

I'm so excited that the Captain Marvel teaser poster and trailer have finally dropped. I'm a huge fan of the Marvel Universe and was full of joy when I found out that Brie Larson was cast as Captain Marvel a while back.

I fell in love with Brie Larson when I saw her in the role of 'Envy Adams' in 'Scott Pilgrim vs. the World'.

Guess Which Cosplay I'll Be Doing For New York Comic Con?!

noreply@blogger.com (Nubia) — Sat, 15 Sep 2018 22:26:00 +0000

New York Comic Con Is Almost Here!

As much as I'd love to comic con hop like many people I know, I don't always have the free time. My main jam will always be New York Comic Con. I've been attending since before Reedpop owned them in 2006. It's the Comic Convention I always try to clear up room for. I remember when there weren't that many people in attendance and there was such a special magical feel to it. Nowadays it's very populated and still holds some magic but in a different way.

Foodie Fridays: Las Catrinas NYC.

noreply@blogger.com (Nubia) — Sat, 15 Sep 2018 01:07:00 +0000

A Mexican Bar & Eatery In New York That Makes You Feel Like You're On A Little Getaway.

Sometimes it's hard to find a place that you love to go eat so when you do, you must cherish it. My Fiance took me to 'Las Catrinas' in Astoria, Queens, about two months ago and I've been back at least 4 times since. The Mexican food inspired by Tulum style street food & authentic Mexican cuisine is amazingly fresh and delicious. The drinks are to die for! Probably one of my favorite spots for unique, strong drinks in Queens. They don't hold back.
