Chicken salad

I can of chicken breast in water
1 cup of Seedless grapes cut in halves
2-3 Celery
Salt to taste
Pepper to taste

You do not need to follow the measurements exactly. Make it as you desire. Everyone has different taste. Enjoy with Hawaiian sweet rolls, or my favorite, croissant!

Enjoy!

My Little Gym

I have little nook area upstairs in my town home. However it fits my elliptical machine I bought from an ex co-worker for $80!
I haven't been using it as much as I do now. My goal in the next 2 months is to drop 10 lbs.
I have a discovered a way to enjoy my work outs but hanging my ipad on the machine with a headband  wrapped around the handles.
I also use my daughters storage cube I got from container store for $6 to store my jump rope, resistant bands, dumbells...etc.





The other day I wore this to work out and was super comfy considering I got the yoga pants for $7 at LoveCulture...This is a picture of the model compared to "my determined to slim down self"  =)

Pin-Up Bachelorette Party Theme

This year I threw my sister-in-law a Pin-up themed Bachelorette Party! The color theme of her wedding was Red, so I thought it would be cute to get the girls to dress in Red & Black and the Bride wore Red & White. 
I ordered a dozen chocolate and vanilla cupcakes from Sam's Club. All topped with Red Frosting. 

I google searched "Pin-Up Girl"pictures, printed them out, choose the size I needed and cut them with a decorative scissor to give the pictures a cute border. Hot glued each picture to toothpicks.


I also bought vintage coke bottles from Sam's Club.

I completely forgot to take pictures of all the goodies I put in the gift bags for the guests. Below I searched pictures of what I put in them. They were filled with little hottie mints from Ulta, chocolate & strawberries face mask from Walmart, Pepcid AC (for those who were planning to consume alcohol =) really good for those day after stomach aches/ queziness) and an Emergen-C vitaman C drink pack.

These mirror mints were $2.99 ea

$1.37 ea


I bought these at Sam's Club and forgot the amount.

All stuffed in these cute red bags from Michael's. I also printed out larger size Pin-Up Girl pictures from the internet and just glued them to the bag along with the guests names below the pictures. Along with a red rose hair clip I made. I bought the silk roses from Michaels and hot glued them on hair clips. The "Bride to Be" sash was from Claire's Willowbrook Mall.

These are some pictures of what the girls wore. I made the bachelorette a white flower hair clip, which also bought at Michael's and hot glued to a silver hair clip along with a little veil. She's on the left. That's me on the right. I pinned up my bangs and curled the bottom.

I loved how all the girls wore the red rose. Very vintage.


And then came the Limo for a crazy night on the town!

Hope ya'll enjoyed this!

Maybella's 3rd birthday

Special thanks to all who made her day a little more special. =)
Princess Maybella's birthday was all pinked out. Her party was supposed to be on a Saturday but she ended up having a fever and recovered a day before her real birthday. Which was actually the day we celebrated, Monday May 7th.
Here are some pictures of her Princess Birthday and the gifts she got from family.







 I took these pictures when she woke up. Very moody, can you tell?
 Hmmm I assume she wasnt herself because she was still recovering from being sick =(



 Gave her a pink piano for her present and she danced! =)
