  • 6-Ingredient Chocolate Bacon Saltine Toffee Bark

    6-Ingredient Chocolate Bacon Saltine Toffee Bark

    I was going through my handy dandy recipe box when I found one for chocolate bacon bark. I realized I never took the time to post my experience of making this delicious dessert last year! ‘Delish Bacon Bark’ was published in the March 2018 issue of Good Housekeeping. The photo of melted chocolate and crumbled bacon over a layer of Saltines grabbed my attention immediately, and I made it myself shortly after. It’s really easy to make. First, I lined a baking sheet with aluminum foil and then layered with 24 saltine crackers. Unsalted is preferred; I used whole grain…

  • 30 Minute One Bowl Banana Bread Muffins (with One Banana!)

    30 Minute One Bowl Banana Bread Muffins (with One Banana!)

    Don’t you hate it when you buy a bunch of bananas and end up tossing the last one because it’s too ripe? Before you send that spotty banana to the trash, put it to good use and make these soft and fluffy One Bowl Banana Bread Muffins instead! This small-batch recipe turns one ripe banana into a dozen golden banana muffins for breakfast or snacking. Save That Last Banana! One of my family members refuses to eat bananas once they start showing brown spots. It never bothers me, but it is annoying to waste food. I like to think of…

    Lip Monthly Subscription Box – December 2018 Review

    My third and final bag from my 3-month subscription to Lip Monthly arrived in early December with four unsurprising but satisfying beauty goodies. Since becoming a member, I’ve come to expect at least one lipstick, one balm, a lip liner, and an additional pouty treat from the company. You can imagine that my lip collection has expanded over the course of my membership! Here’s a look at what I received in December 2018: The Lip Monthly bags are really something. The designs are pretty and modern and usually coincide with the month. For December, you can see a cluster of…

  • Lip Monthly Subscription Box – November 2018 Review

    Lip Monthly Subscription Box – November 2018 Review

    My second bag from Lip Monthly arrived in late November; for a moment, I thought something had happened to my subscription! A few people on Instagram complained the November bag was lacking, but I was pleasantly surprised by what I received. The bag itself confused me at first with it’s images of rainy clouds and umbrellas. What does that have to do with November? I was expecting turkeys or cornucopias. The notecard promises the products “will help keep you shinning bright, as the days get shorter and the nights get longer.” I like the color scheme and the lip-shaped umbrellas.…

  • Lip Monthly Subscription Box – October 2018 Review

    Lip Monthly Subscription Box – October 2018 Review

    If you’re game to try new beauty products without breaking the bank, Lip Monthly may be the subscription for you. For $12.95 a month, members receive a make-up bag with 4-5 full-sized products to help perfect your pout. If you purchase a 3 month subscription, you only pay for the price for 2; it’s a good deal I couldn’t pass up. I just received my first bag for the month of October! October’s bag comes with 4 lip products. The makeup bag is a zipped denim pouch with a Halloween-themed design and the company’s logo. I like how the lipsticks…
