I think we can all agree that fries just seem to go with everything. With the winter coming up, I love to cook hot side dishes and these fries are a crowd pleaser. I make mine with sweet potatoes or russet potatoes depending on what I’m in the mood for. The below recipe serves 2 and works for either type of potato.
Kris loves a good jam spread and it’s not always easy to find packaged jams without tons of added sugars and preservatives. When I do find better options to purchase, the taste and texture is generally not the best, so I decided to make my own! The magic ingredient here are CHIA SEEDS. Chia seeds thicken the jam, perfectly giving the jam that “jam” texture. I sweetened mine, but you can also not sweeten yours at all since the fruits generally are pretty sweet on their own… Especially strawberries.
Newsflash: I am a self-proclaimed skincare junkie. Anyone who knows me in real life or follows me can vouch, I am one with my skin. How can I preach the importance of skincare, without teaching the basics, which is why I am going to break down my top 6 steps. Knowing the proper steps and order of the process to use your products, is almost more important than the products themselves. We spend so much of our hard earned money of these fancy, skin changing products but if we aren’t using them properly then what’s the point?! ???????? An easy way to think of the correct order is by going from lightest weight to heaviest. I can’t think of a better way to kick off this beauty section, can you?
For the past 6 months I have been hooked on this or a variation of this smoothie for my daily breakfast. Every day until noon, I eat fruit, more specifically orange and yellow fruits (minus citrus and lemon) all blended together. Since doing this I have noticed a crazy change in my energy levels and digestion.
I am known for my OCD pantry organization. Being someone who is overly organized in most aspects of their life, my home, mainly my pantry would be no different. In my previous home, my pantry shelves were pretty narrow and I knew that if I left everything loose, every time I went to grab something other things would fall, and it would drive me insane. I found these amazing Clear Binz and decided to categorize everything by commodity (inspired by The Home Edit) and put things into their own bins and labelled them. Let me break it down, follow along (and shop the items) below.
Besides my sunglasses, see post HERE, I will admit I am a bag collector. As someone who is known for their purses, I wanted to share my top must haves with you guys. Below is a list of styles I love and where you can get the look for less – shop along with me!
I was never really a foundation lover or user in my 20s but as I have gotten more into makeup sometimes it’s just really nice to have your skin look like a doll. Who doesn’t want flawless skin? Right? I have literally tried all of the “holy grail” foundations out there and have compiled my list of faves. Keep in mind: I don’t like the full coverage, cakey, matte look, I go for more of a radiant, hydrated, real skin look. If that’s your vibe this post is for you!
I smell really good… Seriously! I’m not trying to be narsistic, but it’s just a FACT! I have been wearing the same scent for over ten years and I truly believe it will never change. If I have been somewhere, you can tell, this scent, for those who know me, is synonymous to me. People will call me hours after I have left somewhere telling me they knew I was there because they smelt me… Sounds creepy, but it is just the truth.
How cute is my hubby, Kris! This is his first time coming onto my channel – we are here to answer all of your IG questions about our relationship. He takes some time to warm up and this is SOOOO out of his character to even be on camera, but I think he killed it.
In the fall months, I love a hot side dish at every dinner. On tonight’s menu: my mashed sweet potatoes. These are actually part of my Shepherd’s pie recipe (coming soon!) but you can get a little teaser by making these at home tonight.
