Retail Therapy

This weekend I had some great finds! I don't know if I really want the cold dreary weather to get here or what? I am usually not a flats kind of gal, when you are 5"0 you normally always want to be in a heel or wedge. I decided to get a couple pairs of flats and what a great bargain Target has on some really cute ones!

I have also been wanting a bubble umbrella since my trip to New York. I got a really cute one with pink trim. It seems like the perfect umbrella on the days when it rains and it's windy blowing the water all over you.



Lastly to add to my jean collection I got a pair of Hudson's. I just love the fit and cut of these jeans. I was never a jean gal up until maybe a couple years ago. I found a new appreciation for denim. :) I need to start adding a few fall/winter pieces to my closet. I was looking for some sweaters or long sleeve shirts but nothing caught my eye. Happy shopping!

Triple Salted Caramel

So I have been on the hunt for a while for anything salted caramel even since Pinkberry teased me with theirs. I was out shopping and I saw an Ad with the Salted caramel Pinkberry. So naturally I wanted to try it. I walked in and the guy working told me that was an old sign and they no longer have it! Ugh really?! So I decided I would take it upon myself to satisfy this craving for the sweet and salty!!
This is what I came up with Triple Salted Caramel Cupcake! It was the perfect sweet and salty mix I wanted! I even made it it's very own Holiday Halloween box! 
Starbucks is even serving a Salted caramel mocha!! But sweet Jesus is it loaded with calories! So to make myself feel better I got it skinny! HA like that is going to do much! :)
This is my motivation to continue doing Couch to 5K!!

New Fall Scents

Over the weekend I had to go to Bath and Body works to stock up on body lotion! I always wear Black raspberry vanilla but thought I would throw in a new scent for the fall. Sweet cinnamon pumpkin!
I also started melting my marshmallow pumpkin in my Jack O'lantern Scentsy warmer! They are a great buy right now the Jack o'lantern warmer is on close out special!! You can check out more Scentsy at www.alishahoover.scentsy.us I am loving all the Fall yummies!!

Slow Cookin

I love slow cooking it's fast it's easy and the clean up is simple! I found a three set slow cooker and was in high heaven. I thought to myself I can get three meals done all at one time and have them prepped and put away on Sunday evening for the week!
I found this slow cooker three set at Macys last weekend on sale for $89.99 I then headed to JC Penny and found it on sale for $59.99 I bought that one as a bunco gift! Over this past weekend I found this treasure at Walmart for $34.00 same size and everything. I ended up making Chicken and cheese enchiladas in one pot, Garlic basil chicken and will serve it over angel hair pasta in the second one. The last pot I threw some chicken with seasoning and a tad bit of water cooked that up. I will end up turning that into a broccoli cheese chicken and rice casserole and serve it with warm butter rolls.
I can't wait for the fall weather to get here so I can make some delicious soups!!

Let's Get Organized!


So I have read so many blogs lately and have heard the buzz about Erin Condren! I have been lusting after one of her planners for a couple weeks now. I finally broke down and bought one, I thought at first the $50.00 price tag was a little steep for a planner you can only use for one year. I am one of those people that needs to write everything down and see it on paper.
There are so many really amazing features to this nifty little planner, I cannot wait to get this beauty in the mail! If you have not seen this planner check it out! They even have an awesome planner for Teachers! I used the first time buyer coupon Welcome10 and got $10.00 off I love savings and coupons so I feel the need to pass it along too!! :)
