Mani Monday: East Village

Do you ever just look at a color's name and wonder where it came from? Like, when a color is clearly purple, but it is named something ridiculous like "Pink Paradise". I feel that way about this color. I don't get the name/color reference, however, I LOVE the color itself. Also, it is a one-minute dry polish, making it perfect for me (I can't seem to be patient enough for my nails to dry properly!)

What crazy names/colors have you seen lately?

Homemade Chicken Caesar Salads

We wanted to eat healthier more often, so that my workout plans would be more successful. We decided that we wanted to make Chicken Caesar salads like Wendys offers, with delicious grilled chicken and flavor! Problem is, I had no idea what to do to begin.

So we took a stab in the dark. We added Salad, coated it in a very thin layer of Caesar dressing, then added chopped tomatoes. We then chopped up really thin slices of swiss cheese and grilled our chicken, using lemon pepper and lemon juice to add flavor.

It was really good! Bubba, who is a meat and potatoes man, loved it. He had seconds and asked me to make it again - soon! Enjoy!

Broken Lizard Comedy Tour:

Bubba's favorite movie is Super Troopers.

When he went through the police academy he was nicknamed "Farva," after one of the characters. We watch it all the time and love the movie, as inappropriate as goofy as it is. When I got a tip that Broken Lizard comedy was coming to Wise Guys Comedy Club in West Valley... well there wasn't an option. The tickets had already been bought.

Bubba and I had a date night to go see the show! It was a fun night and we laughed a lot. At the end Bubba got to talk to the actors and snap a photo. Mac (Steve Lemme) on the left was talking to another guy, leaving Bubba to talk to his doppelganger, Kevin Heffernan (or is Bubba Kevin's doppelganger?) Either way, they had a chance to laugh, talk, and compare 'stashes. 

Makeup Monday: Janurary Glam Bag

IT FINALLY CAME! After a long wait for this month's glam bag, it finally came!

Needless to say, I didn't wait to rip it open, so I used a baby blanket as my back drop.
Yeah, I'm that person.

Big Sexy Hairspray, a MINI! GUYS. I can't even. I am so excited to have some! I've tried some when other family members had these products and loved them, but frankly have been too cheap to buy them. Also, this size is PERFECT for my purse because it's a mini! Whoo hoo! 

I had seen other glam bag subscribers complain because they got a Nailtini polish just in November. I'm not complaining AT ALL. I love this brand and LOVE the color, called "Frappe". So pretty and feminine! 

I've been needing some lotion to help me through this dry, cold, bitter, Utah winter. I smelled this lotion and LOVE IT. I tried it on my hands and it works wonderful, smells great and doesn't leave a thick layer on my hands.

SOHO concealer makeup brush! I've been needing new brushes and am so excited to try it out! The handle is so thin and easy to hold, and not bulky! 

You guys, I am so excited to try it all out! Other bloggers I had read had posted about the use of this for skin, but on the box it goes into detail about how it works for hair, nails, skin, and scars. I am really excited to try this out!

Have you gotten a glam bag? If not, you should go to IPSY.com and check it out! It's the best $10 you'll EVER spend!

Easy Stuffed Shells

Stuffed shells used to intimidate me. I used to think that there was no easy way about it.

Until I made this recipe. This recipe is my own creation, and I used almost all leftovers based off of other meals we had previously during the week! 

What You'll Need:

Large Shells (I only used half of the box)

Spaghetti Sauce

1 box Cream Cheese

Colby Jack Cheese / Parmesan Cheese

Optional (pictured): Spicy Sausages,

How to do it:

1. Boil your shells. In a bowl, mix the cream cheese and the spaghetti sauce together well. I heated mine in the microwave for one minute to help it blend. Once fully cooked, drain and rinse noodles. Take your bowl and mix, and dump into a plastic bag. Cut a hole in a corner.

2.  Prep a baking pan by placing a thin layer of spaghetti sauce over the bottom. Fill the shells by squeezing the mix into the shells with the plastic bag trick. As you finish your shells, place them in the pan. Do this until the pan is full, or until you've run out of sauce or shells.

3. Cover with cheese and bake in the oven for 15 minutes on 350. During the last five minutes, set the oven to broil to let the cheese get golden. Remove from oven and let cool.

Scoop up, serve and Enjoy!
