Soo & the City Blog

Living in the 4th largest city in the nation, I believe Houston is one of the best cities in the US to live, work and play! I consider myself the average consumer, not so much a foodie, who likes to educate like-minded people on the overall experience of my continual discoveries of restaurants, shops, new real estate developments, social spots, and the neat little places to go for everyday living in the city of Houston. I love learning about new fun things in the city and I like to share those new, fun and helpful things with everyone I know. I've created this blog for people that like such things as well. Ok, hope you enjoy!

Starbucks Mobile Order!

My first mobile starbucks order, didn't even have to wait in that long line, and it even has my name on it! Love it!

drybar (Uptown Park)

This one is supposed to be nicer than the Blow Drybar, so they say. I had someone treat me to a blow out, my first time. It's super fun, I think it's $40...and yes, they wash and massage your scalp. I walked in here with super straight, flat hair and walked out feeling very glamorous! Great place to go if you have a special event and need a hair fix. Fun!

My Bark Box Has Arrived!

February 19, 2014 in Random, Services, Shops, Soo Out of the City

As you can see the pups love it! Especially the chews! What is it? It's a box full of treats, chews, new products and toys that comes once a month. I figured it would be something fun for the dogs, so I went ahead and ordered it as soon as I heard about it. My box is only $19/month and I figured if it comes to be too much, I could always give it as a gift to my followers. If you have a pet and would like to sample or see what one of these boxes are like, post here and the next one that comes in is yours! This service is not in Houston, but from Brooklyn, NY and you know...not matter where the location, I always support great, fun ideas!
