The waterfall outside of the Camino Real Hotel in Downtown El Paso. I was really tempted to jump in that night! It was hot and I saw lots of change in there.

Hello everyone! My name is Lisa Amaya. I'm a 30 some year old mom to one son. My blog is about my life, entertainment, current events, people and events in my hometown, El Paso, Texas, etc. My blog will also feature pieces about Ciudad Juarez, Mexico and surrounding areas in New Mexico. I also hope to include more travel blog posts. Guest bloggers will also contribute from time to time! I've been a writer since I was 6 years old. I graduated from New Mexico State University with a degree in journalism. I've written for various newspapers and magazines. I plan on focusing more of my time on blogging and freelance writing. I took a five-year break from writing but I'm back at it! Thank you for stopping by and welcome!

  2. Hi Sandi! I won $100. I got a queen card with $50. It doubles if it’s a queen. Don’t give up, you might win in the future! I won $2 the other day. Lol.

  3. I love looking at other people in photos of audiences. Award ceremony, there’s a boy in front talking to his parent. (makes me laugh), Was it $10.00 or $100.00 you won on that lotto ticket. (and yea, you – we never win anything)

  6. Hey Michelle! Thanks for stopping by! I think they were old tires. I’ve complained to the dealership so many times and they refuse to admit it. I thought I ran over nails but I didn’t. I-10 is in quite a few states!

  11. The Pina Colada one is delish! I like it more than the red velvet. It has Malibu Rum in it. You can’t really taste it though. Once you go homemade cake, you never go back to cake from a box! Idk something like that! 😂

  12. Aw thanks! I love looking at pictures like these. Girl you know I knew your mom’s cakes were from scratch—there’s no way cakes that beautiful came from a box.

  14. Hi Gwin! I was inspired by you and a couple of other bloggers who do this. Thanks! You’re welcome to come by anytime! Luckily, I learned a thing or two from them 😃 My mom bakes from scratch, no more cake mix! The drinks were alright, really strong! I’ll let my son know too. So I guess they’ll be a part two of this!

  15. I love these Lisa!
    Girl between your Grandma and your mama, I got to get to El Paso! Authentic Enchaladas with beans and that freaking red velvet cake?
    YAAAAAASSSSSS!
    The drinks too!

    But, more important that all of that, I’d like to offer your handsome baby a big congrats for his award!

  18. It is, Kara! 😊 Maybe I’ll try this more often. I don’t think I’ve ever had papaya…well maybe once in my life. I’ll try it with chile powder and cumin. I think you’ll like it mangoes. If you find some Tajin, try it on some fruit.

  19. It’s fun to go through old pictures, isn’t it? 🙂

    Papaya tastes great with chile powder (and a little cumin). In fact, I don’t like papaya without it. A strange, but tasty combo. I’ll have to try it with mangoes, that does sound fantastic!

  32. It’s so hard to keep up, there’s 58 breweries in Portland alone and over 200 within the state itself. My favorite brewery is Barley Brown on the far side of the state, their Pallet Jack IPA is irresistible!

  34. Hi there! Thank you for checking it out! I’ve seen other bloggers do it so I decided to try it too. Beer and cats would definitely work…especially the beer! What’s your favorite kind??

  36. This is a great idea. How fun to see these – literal – lil snapshots of your life.
    Makes me want to do it, but I’m afraid my pics would all be of beer or my cat. 🙄🙄🙄
