I decided to delete my older “about me” section and go with this one because the older one sounded more like the objective on a resume. Anyhow, welcome to my blog! Thank you so much for visiting. This is my own private little space where I blabber and rant about my ideas, opinions, shopping sprees, and favorite things (fashion, makeup, shopping, food, shoes, my boyfriend
, etc).
On the personal side, I live on the tiny island of Puerto Rico, in a tinier apartment, with my not-so-tiny cat named Bacon. If you round my age I’m almost 30, but not there yet! Still a few more years to go. I’m sure I’ll do a blog post about the milestone when I get there so you can either laugh at me or laugh with me. I majored in finance and accounting in college and I have an average paying job in the finance department of one of the few companies on the island, so my current and past salaries have made me really good at shopping on a budget. I don’t claim to be a professional (or anywhere near) about the topics I write about. Most of what I learned about makeup comes from YouTube, what I’ve learned about shopping comes from being broke, and what I’ve learned from men and relationships comes from experience. I still have a lot to learn so I reserve the right to change my mind.
I hope that if you’re here it’s because you found my blog or something in it interesting or relatable, and if you find it interesting enough please feel free to subscribe by email or follow me on Bloglovin or Facebook. And if you’d like to contact me directly, please do so via email to lifeofarecessionista@gmail.com.

Hi Lisa,
I love following your blog! I never knew your name was Lisa, before. That’s my sister’s name, so no wonder I find a kindred spirit in your posts!
Sara

Hey Lisa!
I had an idea I wanted to run by you… How would you feel about doing a guest post for my blog? I know you’ve been taking some culinary classes and if you wanted to show off your new skills, I’d love to feature you!
If you’re up for it, let me know! I’d also be willing to do a beauty or fashion post for you if you wanted to do a trade
Looking forward to your next post!
Sara
I LOVE the idea!! Although ny cooking skills will never level up to yours no matter how much classes I take.
Do you have any particular topics in mind?
I’d be up for anything you wanted to cook and write about! Honestly my posts are just whatever we feel like eating on any given day! So… I don’t even come up with my own topics. Haha!
Haha sounds like a plan! Let’s run through ideas
We can keep in touch by email if you’d like: lifeofarecessionista@gmail.com (I just now realized I hadn’t added my email to the “about me” info). I have a couple recipe ideas I think you might like, I hope I can find all the ingredients in the grocery store. Feel free to write anything you’d like for my blog also
I would LOVE to visit Puerto Rico some day! I’ve heard how beautiful is! Some day…
Definitely! You’ll love it for sure. I can give you insider local info on the places to see
