About Me

My Photo
Hello! I love to share things that I love on my personal Pinetrest, Twitter and Instagram account. I started getting friends of friends following me. So I looked into blogging and started following a few sites. I noticed most of them had one thing missing.... They didn't speak to me as a young professional working 40+ hours a week, shopaholic on a budget, newly wed, first time homeowner & habitual dieter. Many of the DIY projects & recipies took more time & creativity then I had available. Plus, a good amount of the fashion & beauty suggestions were out of my budget. If any of this describes you follow me, write me, & send me things you love so I can share it!

Cleaning out my closet sale!

Cleaning out my closet sale!  Check out my eBay store dress*me*for*less http://bit.ly/DMFLEBAY  All items are priced to sell.  Most starting at $.99 to allow for a true auction.  All of my listed items are gently worn with love and care.  If you have any questions or would like a more detailed photo please ask.  I aim to keep my 100% positive feedback and try to point out as many issues with the clothing as possible.  All items are cleaned before selling.  If you purchase multiple auctions I’m happy to combine shipping.  Just let me know if you plan on buying more items so I can hold back on sending them until you’re done.  Shipping within the US only.  Payment is due within 2 days (48 hours).  No returns.  Happy bidding!

Hungry?

My hubby & I love to go to Jamba Juice for a healthy snack.  I usually get carrot and orange juice.  Now, I'm OBSESSED with their Energy Bowls.  Their low in fat, high in antioxidants, and delicious!  My fav is the Mango Peach Bowl.



It's the perfect little snack when you need something healthy, filling but not to heavy.  It got me thinking...  how can I recreate this at home?  I wanted a snack that was low in fat and calories too.  This is what I created::


Ok, not as pretty.  Here is what's in it::  Pistachio Pudding (make with Unsweetened Almond Milk), Plain Fat Free Chobani Yogurt, Banana & Plain Granola. It's 303 calories & 2 grams of Fat.  If you want to slim this down leave out the Granola.  It keeps me full and from eating other random snacks while watching TV at night.  Hopefully my photography skills will improve and I'll show you some pics of the other combinations that I create.  

Let me know if you have a great snack to share!

Pumpkin Spice Everything

What's up with this Pumpkin Spice craze?  I'll admit I love Pumpkin Spice coffee, cookies, whoopee pies & oreos.  You have to pause and think...  What is in Pumpkin Spice?  It's literally just a blend of cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger and allspice.  I'm sure you've read the article that circulated around Facebook about the Starbuck PSL.  Did you really think there was Pumpkin in your coffee anyways?  Now that you know add this to anything you want.  Go crazy on Pinterest and find all of the recipes you hope to make one day.  As October comes to an end I'm going to continue to indulge in everything Pumpkin Spice.  I hope you do too!

Tap This App:: Cartwheel

Do you shop at Target?  Of course!  Now the real question... Do you use the Cartwheel app?  If not, you're losing out on great savings.  From groceries to clothes.  You can get an additional discount on most of their products.  How does this majical app work?  Just download the app and create an account.  While shopping around scan the bar code of an item and it will reveal if there's a discount.  What I like about this method of couponing or discount is it doesn't entice you to buy due a promotion.  You planning on buying that shirt, chips or book anyways.  Why not get 5-25% off?  Check out the deals I have in my cart::



Happy scanning!
