Summer is officially here and I couldn’t be happier! With scorching hot temperatures, impromptu barbecues, and loads of other outdoor activities, I have to say there’s no better place to experience summertime than here in New York. If you live in New York, or anywhere in the North East, then you know we have some pretty ferocious winters, so forgive me for trying to make the most out of the sunny days and warm nights!
The other night was one summer evening for the books because I went to see Beyoncé perform at Citi Field in my hometown, Queens! Talk about a very special occasion. Big moments don’t happen in Queens as often as they should!
Please believe the Bey Hive was in full affect. Oh, and I forgot to mention DJ Khaled opened up for her, so you know he graced the stage with a bunch of energy!
Before I headed to the show I figured I would indulge in a little pregame with my good friend! Our cocktail of choice was a Shimmery Lemonade (pun intended). This is usually my go-to poolside drink, but since we were going to see Beyoncé, we had to pay homage to her incredible Lemonade album!
