shrockalicious

Introducingggg- Elise Shrock! Our featured 30k Millionaire of the week; Elise is known for her love for Spanish Cuisine, going green and thinking outside the box. She loves to garden and use her own herbs when cooking. Elise is one talented hot tamale! Her love for cooking and gathering of friends runs deep. So let's get after it and get to know how she rocks her 30k lifestyle.

My motto is: All you need is love, love. Love is all you need.
Childhood ambition: To be a Marine Biologist. Until my parents took me snorkeling and I figured out that I get viciously sea-sick. Bummer.
Favorite cocktail: Dirty Martini. Classic with a hint of briney goodness. Plus, it is like a drink and a snack with those olives. Which is also why Bloody Marys are a close second.
Favorite place to grab a cocktail: The Wellington. Although they are generally known for their beer collection, they make a mean cocktail!
Cheap eats: Indian Buffets. Take Shalimar in Broadripple for instance. There you can get an all-you-can-eat taste of the staples in Indian cuisine that make you koo-koo for curry. Apps, entree's, side dishes, breads, and desserts are all included for around 8 bucks!
Cheap thrill:Sitting on our porch balcony with a beer, smoking our hookah with everyone at sunset.
Favorite thing about Indy in the summer: Dining al fresco with friends. Plus, everything is so green and walkable/ride-able! Gotta love it.
Fav type of music: Crooners like Tony Bennett always be my favorite. And there is something about Reggae that will always make my heart stir. And l really love bluegrass....This question is too hard, I quit.
Looking forward to this summer:Festivals! The Middle-Eastern festival is by far my favorite. St. Joan's French Market is great too!
On my days off you’ll find me: In our yard. I've recently planted an herb garden and some annuals. Next, I'll be working on a small kitchen garden...artichokes, cherry tomatoes, and more!
You might be surprised to know: I hate compound words using "meat".
Favorite websites: greenissexy.org, cakewrecks.blogspot.com, naturalhealthmag.com
Best advice anyone has given me: Be kind to everyone, no matter who, no matter what. (A life lesson inspired by my dad, who I still really do think moonlights as Superman)
Favorite party memory: The creation of the Gin and Tonic Ninja.
Favorite way to be green: Kitchen garden= No grocery store needed= less emissions to drive there= free and sustainable
Thirtythousanddollarmillionaire is: the bees knees. And what we all kept saying we should do, then we did it. And I love that.

DPs make me feel: Like a million dollars. And lucky to have so many great friends to share them with!Favorite recipe: Tortilla EspaƱa ( ultimate comfort food)
