I have a major crush!


...On drink animals!  I saw these for the first time over the weekend and I became mildly obsessed.  My next get together will definitely have drink animals as a guest!  And I looked online for them and they are super easy to purchase.

Crush of the day!

Here is my first actual 'crush' post!  I've been wanting to put up quick posts about things I like and they are going to be things I'm 'crushing' on. So here is my first one!



HELLO!  These shoes are A-MAZ-ING!  I literally can't stop thinking about them.  Thank you Jessica Simpson for making this shoe.  Im saving up! (or hoping Santa got my letter)

Going nude

I LOVE LOVE LOVE color...except on my nails.  Sometimes I will get crazy and get red or orange polish but for the most part I lean towards nude.  Perhaps to take the attention away from my huge man hands but still have nice manicured nails.  ;)  I have tried a bunch of different ones wanting to find the perfect shade.  Not too white, not too brown, not sparkly etc.  And I think I have found my favorite.  'Sandy Beach' by Essie!

Try this shade for your next manicure if you want something simple but elegant!

Pretty Skin Smoothie!

I found a recipe in my Women's Health magazine that has smooth, pretty skin benefits.  Plus, after looking at the ingredients, I don't think you can go wrong with a smoothie full of fruits and vegetables.  I definitely have trouble getting all the servings of each that you need per day.  So, with this smoothie I start my day on the right foot!  This recipe is accredited to Kimberly Snyder, author of The Beauty Detox Solution (perhaps I should pick that book up!)

This recipe will make a weeks worth of smoothies.  Treat yourself to 8 ounces every morning!

1 1/2 cups water
2       cups chopped organic romaine lettuce
3-4   stalks organic celery
3      cups organic spinach
1      organic apple, cored and chopped
1      organic pear, cored and chopped
1      organic banana
Juice of 1/2 fresh organic lemon

Blend and enjoy!!
