#FuzzyFriday for me is always more fun if I can create a special concoction for you. It always feels more "from the heart" if I made it up myself rather than just picked one up from Pinterest. Well, remember yesterday I talked about something exciting coming soon? When I have weeks like this, I don't always have time for very complicated cocktails. And with the spiking temperatures already, I'm migrating to the tropical flavors. So this is … [Read more...]
Something Exciting is Coming Soon
I've been working on a few projects for a while now, one of them already I've kicked off already, my Women On Purpose series, which my next one is coming up soon. But another project I'm BEYOND excited for as well will be kicking off within the next week, and it's something each of YOU can be a part of! Yup! This is not all about me.... it's about YOU! Because this.... I get gratification when I know what I'm doing makes a … [Read more...]
Gifts For Mom Under $50
This woman is my everything. I am whatever I am today half because of her and half because of her husband of 50 years. ... Isn't that awesome? My mom. No one like her. And I'm sure there is no one like your mom, right? We don't understand a mother's love until we become a mother. The job that entails being a mother is the most wonderful job, the most stressful job, the most challenging job, the most emotional job, the most rewarding … [Read more...]
Manus x Machina: Video Portraits
At the 2016 Met Gala Red Carpet opening event of this year's annual fashion exhibit, Manus x Machina, there was an exhibit of its own showing the futuristic side of fashion that truly brought together man and machine. Met Gala Manus x Machina video portraits done by filmmaker Gordon von Steiner for Vogue were works of art in and of themselves. The way he captured these A-listers wearing their designers, with the lights and together with … [Read more...]
Fuzzy Friday: Limon Fraise
Everywhere I look at the store I'm seeing strawberries in abundance, and big beautiful ones at that. So I decided to take advantage of these sweet, fresh, yummy, healthy (if we can make ourselves feel better that our cocktails are healthy, why not??? HA!) fruits to include in our drinks? And I love nothing more than lemon and berries. All kinds. Lemon and blueberries, lemon and raspberries, and this week, I've created something with lemon … [Read more...]
Lip Plumper: Sublime Lips Cheeky Physique
Big juicy fuller plumper lips. Isn't that something so many women desire? I know I do! Fortunately, I don't have super thin or tiny lips, so I have a good start on my own. And the thought of injecting them with anything that could totally change how I look is something I'm not interested in. If I make any changes, I want them to be as natural looking as possible, and pain free, too! {wink!} I recently got the chance to try out the Sublime … [Read more...]
What To Eat: Spinach Patties
My daughter requested I make spinach balls not too long ago to go along with dinner. I felt like those were more hors d'oeuvres, and in pulling several recipes together, I created my own, and instead created these patties. I felt like they were more "side dish" type of an item to serve with chicken, fish, beef, anything. And the extras made a great little snack! Spinach Patties 2 bags frozen spinach 2 large egg 1 stick … [Read more...]
Prince, A Special Performance, A Fitting Name
Yes, another post on another site about Prince. I can't help but be still so taken with this whole thing, his passing, and really appreciating who he was when we DID have him around. Most of you 40 somethings probably agree with me in everything I'm saying and probably all relate quite a bit because he in part defined our time. Am I right? Because I have intellection (if you don't understand what I'm talking about, you can read about my … [Read more...]
Fuzzy Friday: Purple Rain
Today's cocktail is in honor of the man.... Like... I just can't even. Being a child of the 80's, before cell phones and computers, before any technology, we had boom boxes and music and cassette tapes and real life friend connections. And paper notes. And school dances. And this icon, Prince, who left this earth too soon. He was more than just a singer. He was multi-faceted, multi-talented, in a larger than life way. While life … [Read more...]
What To Wear: Ruffled Tops and Pastel Pantones
Femininity is a huge look this spring. We're seeing florals, and ruffles and light and airy colors. So today I've pulled a few ruffled tops that would be great with a pair of blue jeans (like I'm wearing), to white jeans (my ultimate favorite!), to shorts, to flared pants. It's a great mix and match type of piece that gives a feminine touch to a look you're going for. I've paired my blush top with a Valentino pink clutch, a … [Read more...]
