Lights, Camera, Vlog!

September 7, 2012.Reading time 1 minute.

I have to say that I spend way too much time watching youtube videos. So much so that I’ve started thinking about doing it myself and incorporate that into my blogs. I literally don’t know anyone personally who does this (unless you’re keeping it a secret), although it seems like “the norm” in other […]

“Autumn, the Year’s Last, Loveliest Smile”

September 3, 2012.Reading time 5 minutes.

We’re on the brink of Fall, as the weather is still warm, however hints of it are beginning to show with the trees already changing their color. This is the beginning of my favorite time of year, all the way up to New Years. I love the feeling in the air, the decor, the food, […]

Moments You Can’t Buy

September 2, 2012.Reading time 1 minute.

On a normal Sunday, I am not a morning person. You’ll find me still snuggled in bed until eleven o’clock or so. I’ve always been more of a night owl which means getting up early does not come natural to me. But after a few hours in the ER yesterday (bladder infection – ouch) and […]

Candle Birthday Haul

June 22, 2012.Reading time 5 minutes.

If you follow a few of my blogs, you’ll know that I’m getting things ready to launch my own homemade soy candles collection. And since I’ll be in the wax business, I’ve been craving candles like crazy! Which is exactly what I ended up getting for my birthday from my husband and my mom…plus I […]

Abscents

Okay guys…I think I’ve decided to create my own candles! I have yet to get all the materials I need, but I’ve been online researching things like you wouldn’t believe in order to be prepared. It’s going to take me a while to get a final product, for sure, given the money is coming out […]

Let’s Talk About Makeup, Man

April 14, 2012.Reading time 11 minutes.

I have probably been watching way too many Elle and Blair Fowler videos because I’ve been on a beauty kick for a while. I’ve revisited what’s in my collection and trying to use what I already have, BUT I bought a few new spring favorites that I needed like blush and lip color. I’ve always […]

“Diet” Is A Four Letter Word for A Reason

March 22, 2012.Reading time 4 minutes.

Pin Oy. I’m nursing a cup of Progresso soup while typing. Let me start off by saying I’m not really a soup person and it’s not going down easy. And I’ll add I’ll still be hungry after lunch. But what else do you eat when you’re not accustomed to actually thinking about what you’re putting […]

Getting To Know You: Five Things

March 2, 2012.Reading time 1 minute.

1. I usually eat the yellow pieces of Capn’ Crunch first. Then all the berries. 2. When I curl my hair, I count to 50 with every section. 3. I LOVE sentimental things, especially pictures. 4. My BIGGEST pet peeve is when someone takes my stuff without asking. Sometimes I get irritated if someone moves […]

Very Berry Smoothie

February 19, 2012.Reading time 2 minutes.

I’m definitely not a health fanatic (wish I was but sadly not), but this amazing smoothie was passed on to me about four years ago and I LOVE it! While others are buying amazing juicers, I simply can’t afford it so I’ll stick to using my blender in the mean time. This recipe is very […]

Connecting The Old Fashioned Way

February 18, 2012.Reading time 2 minutes.

The first time I had to move and leave my best friends, I was nine. I made sure to get everyone’s addresses and promised to write. If we couldn’t see each other anymore, the next best thing was to be pen pals. I kept up this trend well into my early twenties, and obsessing over […]
