-Things To Try Thursdays- Freeman’s Avocado Oatmeal Clay Mask
You know I’m a sucker for a good deal. I’m even more of a sucker when it’s bright green, made with avocado (most likely not 100%- but oh well), and permanently resides at Wal-Mart. The gobbledy gook I’m speaking of … Continue reading

#WIAW- The Baking Bug
Typically the only places I like bugs are behind glass or a colored photo. I’m a screamer when it comes to even the smallest kind of creepy crawly, so even when I’ve gone camping, it usually turns into “glam ping.” … Continue reading

-Things To Try Thursdays- “Do It For The Girls” Campaign
This is a piggybacked post off of last week’s TTTT. It has to do with yet again…women…and being aware of our bodies. I was watching daytime TV yesterday (a once a year thing) and stumbled upon Giuliana Rancic speaking with … Continue reading

#WIAW- Falling Into Apple Orchards and Pumpkin Flavor
