Proactive

I ordered and received my Proactive package. It came with Renewing Cleanser 2 FL., Revitalizing Toner 2 FL., Repairing Treatment 1 FL., Refining Mask 1 OZ., Green Tea Moisturizer .33 FL OZ., and of coarse that stuppid little book that they say is worth $12.00 and I say is worth nothing. It is a little silly just how small these bottle are, it's crazy. So I will try it out tonight before bed and then again in the morning. I will keep at it and use all of the product keeping everyone in the loop about how my skin changes or not changes. I don't have a terrible acne problem just a few break-outs every now and then but I would love to not have those and just have clear beautiful skin. I hate break-outs.
If you have used Proactive please leave a comment and tell me about your experience with it. I would love to know what happen with your skin, if it worked or didn't help at all.

Outfit of the Week- Week Two

This is a great summer outfit and sometimes because of the crazy weather in North Carolina I often get to wear it even in the winter.

I bought this shirt at Khols and only paid about $4.00 for it because it was in clearance. If you read my blogs often you will notice that I get allot of my stuff from the clearance areas. It's the same stuff as the rest of the store just extremely cheaper. I love it.

I love these flip flops, they are so comfortable and easy to wear. They are cushy and soft. I found these at my local CVS store right down the street from my house. They were of coarse in clearance for $4.00, so cheap but so wonderful.

I love these shorts. I haven't worn them through the summer yet because I just bought them this Christmas with my X-Mas money. I found them at Khols in clearance for $7.00. They are so comfortable and soft and I just love them. I always use to say that I didn't like cut off short and would never wear them. Now I couldn't bare to lose these cut off shorts. I am totally sold on cut off shorts, well at least these ones.

So what do you think about this weeks "Outfit of the Week"? Leave a comment and let me know.

LOVE THIS DESSERT

Treat your sweetie to something special this Valentine's Day: this eye-catching cake that melds raspberries and chocolate. Ganache is used for the airy mousse base and as the topping, while a pink-hued raspberry mousse peeks out between the layers.
Chocolate-Raspberry Mousse Cake

CRUST
1 1/2 cups chocolate cookie crumbs*
6 tablespoons butter, melted
1/4 cup raspberry preserves
FILLING
8 oz. semisweet chocolate, chopped
2 tablespoons raspberry flavoring syrup, divided**
2 1/2 cups whipping topping, divided
1 tablespoon sugar
TOPPING
6 oz. semisweet chocolate, chopped
3/4 cup whipping cream

1. Heat oven to 375°F. In medium bowl, stir together cookie crumbs and melted butter. Press into bottom of 9-inch springform pan. Bake 10 minutes or until set.
Remove from oven; gently spread preserves over crust. Cool completely on wire rack.

2. Meanwhile, place 8 oz. chocolate and 1 tablespoon of the raspberry syrup in large bowl. Heat 1 1/2 cups of the cream in medium saucepan over medium heat or in microwave on high until cream comes to a boil. Immediately pour cream over chocolate; stir until smooth. Let stand until cool but still liquid (about 65°F.). (To speed up process, place bowl with chocolate in bowl of ice water; stir constantly.) Beat at medium speed 2 to 4 minutes or until slightly soft peaks form; spread over crust. Refrigerate.

3. In large bowl, beat remaining 1 cup cream, remaining 1 tablespoon raspberry syrup and sugar at medium speed until firm but not stiff peaks form. Spread over chocolate filling. Refrigerate.

4. Place 6 oz. chocolate in large bowl. Heat 3/4 cup cream in small saucepan over medium heat or in microwave on high until cream comes to a boil. Immediately pour cream over chocolate; stir until smooth. Cool until slightly thickened but still pourable (about 75°F.). Spoon over raspberry filling. Cover and refrigerate until set, at least 8 hours or overnight. (Cake can be made up to 2 days ahead.)
5. To easily cut cake, leave cake in springform pan; use hot dry knife to cut through top layer. Refrigerate. When ready to serve, remove springform pan ring; slice completely. Store in refrigerator.

TIPS *Look for 100-percent chocolate cookie crumbs, such as the Oreo brand, which are located in the supermarket baking section near graham cracker crumbs or in the ice cream topping section. If you can’t find them, substitute crushed chocolate wafer cookies.
**Raspberry flavoring syrup often is used to flavor coffee, so look for it in the gourmet coffee section of the supermarket.

Turn the strawberries upside down and insert by the toothpicks into a piece of Styrofoam for easy cooling, or simply place them on a sheet of wax paper.

2 tablespoons shortening

1 pound fresh strawberries with leaves

Directions

1. Insert toothpicks into the tops of the strawberries.
2. In a double boiler, melt the chocolate and shortening, stirring occasionally until smooth. Holding them by the toothpicks, dip the strawberries into the chocolate mixture.
3. Turn the strawberries upside down and insert the toothpick into Styrofoam for the chocolate to cool.

What I bought, Shopping.

So as you know if you keep up with my blogs I went shopping the other day and bought a few things. First as I have shown in another entry my new bag. It was about $26.00 at Ross, I love it there. Ross has higher quality items such as clothes, bags, and shoes plus much more for a cheaper price than other stores. I could spend all day in one shopping threw all their great stuff.

I also purchased these two tops the first was $8.99 at Ross. It fits great and I love the way it fits around my chest. The fabric is fabulous, so soft on my skin and comfortable. The second shirt was $6.99 at Ross. It is also soft and comfortable.

This shirt also came from Ross for about $6.99. This one is a little too big for me but I will wear it with a little pair of leggings and just hang around the house in it. It was totally comfy and will be great around that time of the month.

I also went to CVS and got my supply of hair dye and some basic make-ups. I love using Garnier Nutrisse, it always leaves my hair feeling much better than any other dyes. I picked up some pink lip gloss, and a few cover up make-ups. I tend to buy allot of my make-ups and beauty supplies from CVS because they are right down the road from my house and I love simple and quick when it comes to getting to a place.

My Kitty-Smidge-

This is my little Smidge, better known as MooMoo or MooBear. I always have multiple names for all the animals I end up with. Depending on my mood and theirs, I use the different names to let her know how I feel about what she is doing. In the picture she is my little MooBear, so sweet and cute. You just want to squeeze her and run her little belly. When she is being a naughty girl, getting into something or using my bed as a scratching post we call her Smidge in a Stern voice. Now when she is being silly or I accidentally knock her of my computer chair with my elbow, I use MooMoo. She is such a mommys girl and often sits in my lap while I am on the computer. She needs allot of attention and care. If you are wondering why she is so fat it's not my fault. My mother in law feeds her treats all day long and I can't get her to stop. lol Moo will be okay though so she is on the all cat food diet. What do you think about little Smidge? Leave a comment and become a follower for more from me.

My newest handbag- Tyler Rodan-

I picked up this Tyler Rodan bag in Ross today for about $26.00, original price was $75.00. There are two smaller zipper openings in the front and one larger one on the back, including two cell phone pockets on the sides.

Here you can kind of see the matching Umbrella that can with the bag.

 I love freebies.  What do you think about the bag? Would you tote it around? Leave a comment and tell me what you think about it and don't forget to become a follower so you wont miss a thing from me and my blog!

Outfit of the Week- Week One

So I am going to start doing an outfit of the week. I plan to upload a new outfit at least once a week but if I don't get around to it every single week don't be mad. I might even end up doing more that just one a week, oh well.

Anyway this is a usual outfit for me, I am so casual. I always, always wear flats. I tried wearing heels a couple years back but they never caught on with me. I feel like a giant even though I am only 5'5 and my hubby likes that I am short and prefers me on the ground. Flats are much more comfortable and if you have to run away from something or whatever you are good to go. I bought these shoes at Ross for around $15.00.

I am always in a pair of jeans, be it pants or shorts, so of coarse my first "Outfit of the Week" is Jeans. I am a big fan of the ripped look, I am pretty sure most of my jeans have ripped parts on them. I bought these jeans from Alloy.com but I don't recommend buying jeans online. You really need to try them on. I had to return these twice trying to find the right size and the shipping is killer. I complained and got most of the shipping given back in a gift card. Remember this if nothing else, complaining can get you free stuff. lol

 A good undershirt is key. I never want to show too much while I am out and about so I always wear a great undershirt. A good one can snuggle you in all the right places and give you some great cleavage so I usually don't go without one. I bought this undershirt at Khols for around $2.99. Khols clearance is amazing, I shop their allot.

Finally the top. Light blue is so pretty and the shirt is great to wear. It is so breathable and the fabric is so soft. These are all key details when getting a great shirt. I bought this one at Wetseal.com for $7.50 and I do believe that they still have a few left.

And now we are down to jewelry. I love jewelry, it really adds texture to your outfit and it is so important for your outfit. No matter what your taste is always add some jewelry to complete the outfit. I got most of this stuff from the mall, Claires and whatnot. The butterfly ring was $5.99, the other were a set for $9.99, while the bracelets where $3.99, the earrings came in a set of 3 or 4 different earrings and was $8.99, and the necklace was $6.99 I think.

There is the "Outfit of the Week" out of my closet. Complete with everything you need to look great and be comfortable. Don't forget to wear bras and undies, I didn't think it necessary to upload those, what do you think? Well leave a comment and let me know what you think about my Outfit of the Week. You can also become a follower so you don't miss anything I blog about, you don't want to miss next weeks Outfit of the Week, Do you?

Xhilaration Moto Jacket

I was shopping at Target today and found this rather awesome coat  the Xhilaration Moto Jacket. It's about $35.00 in stores and on their website. I am hoping to find it on sale or maybe in two weeks when I get paid again just pay the $35.00. But I worry that they will all be gone, sold out, this happens to me often. I had already spent $60.00 at Ross and $20.00 at CVS so I just couldn't get the jacket as well. I still have to order Pro Active and $25.00 worth at Wetseal. Wow, I am a shopping fool. But anyway I tried the jacket on at Target and I really like it on, it fit well and feels great. The material doesn't feel all cheap and crappy made. So I definitely want to get one before they are all  gone. What about you? What do you think about the jacket? Do you like it or hate it?

A Little Romance-Sharing valentines at school

From traditional cards to handmade missives to baked treats, there are plenty of sweet ways for kids to express their appreciation for teachers and classmates.

Sweet Treats

Cookie and cupcake lovers of all ages will treasure something home-baked and decorated by hand, even if it starts with a mix.

Almost homemade. Cut refrigerator sugar cookie dough into heart shapes and decorate with icing and candy sprinkles; bake as directed. Place each cookie in a plastic bag and tie with red ribbon. Cut out paper hearts for gift tags.

Love me tender. These Black Bottom Cupcakes come with a gooey cream cheese center, so there's no need for icing. To add a secret message, place a large conversation heart candy in the cream cheese just before baking.

Sweet heart. It might not come in a box from Tiffany's, but this butter cookie necklace is better than bling! Make it a key chain instead of a necklace by shortening the red licorice strand.

Card-Carrying Romantics

Let the kids take the lead when it comes to choosing or making Valentine's Day cards.

One and all. Encourage kids to include all classmates on their Valentine's Day list so no one feels left out. Be sure to remember teachers and school staff, too.

Think inside the box. Allow kids to buy boxed cards if that's their preference, but help them personalize the sentiment by decorating envelopes with stickers, stamps and drawings.

Get creative. You don't have to spend money on commercial valentines--create something unique instead. Use a cookie cutter to trace heart shapes on red or pink cardstock or construction paper. Cut out pictures from magazines for charming collages. Recycle old valentines: mount fronts of cards on heavy red or pink paper or flattened cupcake liners, and decorate with ribbon bows.

Imitation is the highest form of flattery. Check out poetry books from the library to help older kids think about messages to put on their valentines.

Poets who know it. Have younger kids pen poetry using a "Roses are Red, Violets are blue" theme. Or show them how to write a love note that expresses why they appreciate someone: "How do I like you? Let me count the ways…"

Valentines Cranberry Raspberry Flirtini

"Packed with fun and flavor, there is nothing coy about this fruity and effervescent refresher. It will definitely be a favorite to all your guests, friends, family, guy friends, everyone.:)

Ingredients

2 ounces Ocean Spray® Cranberry Juice Cocktail

1 ounce vodka/OR MORE

1/2 ounce raspberry liqueur

1 ounce champagne or sparkling wine

Fresh raspberries, garnish

Directions

Combine the cranberry juice cocktail, vodka, and liqueur in an ice-filled martini shaker. Shake gently and strain into a large martini glass. Top with champagne and garnish with fresh cranberries and raspberries.

Boots

I picked up these great black boots at Ross in Raleigh at briar creek. I think I payed like $15.00 for them. They are crazy comfortable because they are flat. I wear them with everything...shorts, dresses, jeans. I love them. What do you think about them? Would you wear them?

The Weather

Oh wow, the weather was so amazing today in North Carolina. My hubby and I took a little walk around the neighborhood and I got to wear my shorts. I was so happy. I hate the cold weather now. Just a couple years ago I couldn't wait until summer was over and the snow was falling. Now I am totally opposite, I want the sun, I want my pool, I want shorts, and warm weather. I am loving today for the beautiful weather. The sun was shinning, the cold air was far away and we were left with a nice cool breeze. It was lovely. It isn't quite warm enough for me to take a dip in my pool but it was nice. I am counting down the days until summer. See you there.

Layered Hair Cut

   So I tried the quick and easy layered hair cut video out and cut my hair. It doesn't take any length off the back or bottom of your hair, it just basically cuts off the top layer of hair what ever length you cut. I did about an inch. So far so good but I want to live with it about a week before I make a final decision about it. So catch me in about a week and I will update about how I love or hate my hair cut.

HOW TO: Layered haircut in 5 minutes

I plan on trying this super simple way of cutting hair. I am going to try this out after my shower tomorrow and I will post how it went later that night. So cross your fingers and wish me good luck.

Wetseal 30% off

I love shopping at Wetseal and they are always having deals and giving 30, 20, 40% off, it's wonderful. I love getting quality clothes for so cheap.

Love

Love can mean allot of things for different people, to me, love is so strong you would lie for it, you would die for it, you would kill for it. Love is the strongest thing in the world. But then there is puppy love or lust that often get mistaken for love. Love is too strong to ever break or bend, you could never stop the love. People think you can fall in and out of love, but once in love you could never stop loving. Nothing can stop it, nothing. Not even death.
That's my opinion anyway.

Treating your skin with care

  

Clear and beautiful skin is possible for you or anyone but this is basiclly for people with oilly skin and frequent  outbreaks. If you have a different type of skin you can leave a comment and I will also add your skin type and how to treat it. For a basic lesson in skin care rememeber to wash your face, never sleep with make-up on your face and moisturize. Treating your skin with care is something that you should start at a young age, but it is never too late to start taking care of your skin. If you want beautiful skin that feel soft to the touch and glows with youth you just need to get down a pattern of face cleaning, scrubbing, toning and moisturizing.

Clean & Clear Morning Burst Facial Cleanser

You can find this great cleanser for around $6.99 at CVS or any other drugstore. It is very important that you wash your face every morning when you wake up and crawl out of bed because your face will be covered in oils and dirt from your pillow and hair. You will also want to wash your face again before you lay down at night to go to sleep. You NEVER want to go to sleep with any make-up on!!

                    Olay Refreshing Toner

You can find this Toner at CVS or any drugstore for around $3.99. After you wash and pat dry your face you want to moisten a clean cotton ball with the toner and wipe face and neck. Now if you have reall bad acne that you need to clear up skip to the next step.

Stri-Dex Sensitive With Aloe Pads

You can find Stri-Dex just about anywhere, drugstores, CVS for around $3.99. I like using the sensitive with aloe because it is a little more gentle but you can always go for any of them. Stri-Dex will dry out your pimples and that's the way to get rid of them. Use the pad to wipe the entire affected area; Repeat with a clean pad as necessary to remove remaining traces of dirt.

             CVS Medicated Apricot Scrub

You can find the apricot scrub at CVS for around $2.79. You want to wash your face with this once a week, maybe in the shower. It gently removes dirt, oil and dead skin cells and reveals smooth, healthy, more radiant skin with use of natural exfoliants that gently remove dull, dead skin cells.

 

     Aveeno Baby Daily Moisture Lotion

You can find this at CVS for around $5.69. It is super important to moisturize your skin after you have washed and dried out your face. I love this stuff and use it everyday. But if I am trying to get rid of pimples I use a different one. The next step is for this only.

Clean & Clear Dual Action Moisturizer Oil-Free

You can find this moisturizer at CVS or anywhere for around $6.50. This moisturizer is used when you are having pimple problems, outbreaks.

How to cut your own hair!

Happy New Year 2011

Happy New Year 2011!:)
A new year is here, the last year gone, enjoy everyday like it's going to be your last day because you never know when your time is up. In the beginning the only thing in life is eating, pooping, and sleeping. Then we grow to children and life is school and playing. By the time we are going through puberty life is too long and we would do anything to grow up faster and be an adult. Life is school, friends, boys, parties and fun when you are a carefree teen. In our twenty's life is one big party, boys and college. We think only of ourselves and just want to have fun. When we start getting closer to our thirties we notice that people are starting to die all around us, movie stars from movies we watched as children and teens, our grandparents, uncles and aunts. Cancer in everywhere, is there anyone out there that does know at least one person that had cancer or has cancer? Life goes by so quickly in this part of our lives, I feel like I was just in college but that was seven years ago. I fear allot more now that I am getting older, the loss of my husband for one. I feel like I couldn't gone on without him, I really don't know how I managed without him before we came together. I would be lost without him.
Happy New Year everyone, enjoy this one!

Skull/Wings Cell Phone Cover

I recently bought this cell phone cover for my husbands cell phone from amazon.com and it should be here next week sometime. I love to shop from amazon because they have everything you could ever be looking for. The only downside is having to pay shipping for each item, but when you are buying each item from a different place of coarse you will have to pay shipping for each item. But most things you buy on amazon are much cheaper than anywhere else so it makes up for the shipping.
What do you think about the cell phone cover? Leave a comment and don't forget to follow my blog so you can read more about everything and anything.:)
