Sally Hansen #CSMTKO



Sally Hansen Total Knock Out Influenster Box!!! 


I was picked to receive this influenster vox box totally free to try and review.  It came packaged as above and I was so excited to be chosen. I LOVE NAIL POLISH!!
 I received Jaded which is a light green/mint color, a red named red my lips, and a dark purple/black color which is called Pat on the black.

Red My Lips 
Pat on the Black 
Jaded
 The finished swatches.
What did i think? It truly is much like the professional grade salon polish.  It went on like gel and was super smooth when dry.  The down side? It took a really long time to fully dry.... 
Would I purchase it? Yes I am looking forward to getting a pink...Great Polish. Thank you Sally Hansen and Influenster for the FREE Trial!

Bath and Body Works and Baby Shower Gifts trip!

Why is it so hard to buy baby shower gifts when you don't have any kids??? oh yeah, cause you don't have any kids..UGG! So my adventures started this morning when I decided I had to go to bath and body works and get some room spray and a FREE candle..yep I was sucked in. I did have some coupons to use so I really only spent $8.00 between 2 transactions so not horrible.  I begged the hubs to come in and get a giveaway candle and a room spray so that I could give it away..LOL He was mortified, he hates the girly stores he says..(i didn't know B&BW was girly.. :0p ). But anywho, then I needed a baby shower gift and a gift for a friend of my hubby. We went into like 3 places and I finally found the most adorb's outfit ever. Cute pj's with a monkey on it....bought only to realize it was 6/9 mo.. *FacePalm   So we took it back and they didn't have the cute monkey in 3/6 mo. (grrrrrr) So took the less cute bear, monkey, dog combo and away we go.  So off we go to Sam's Club to get a box of diapers and eat free food samples of course.  Get there only to realize we have no clue what size or type of diapers to buy.....had to call his buddy to ask..end of surprise... Oh well! Its very hard to buy for someone you have never had any experience buying for.  We WANT children soooooo bad and hopefully will have a child one day but until then I sit in the diaper aisle about to cry and completely confused!! LOL thank God for cell phones and texting to find out sizes.. So anyway, my ramble is over but hope everyone has had a great day!!! We are going to meet a new baby boy tonight and I get to cuddle an almost 2 year old!! Awwwwwwww!!

Popular Restaurant Copycat Caramel Pie Recipe

O! Charlies~ copycat caramel pie…
(couldn’t type the actual restaurant name, because of copyright laws)
Caramel Pie
Best Copycat Recipe
  • 1 graham cracker crust
  • 2 can Eagle Brand condensed milk
  • 1 lg. tub Cool Whip
  • 1 c. mini chocolate chips, optional
  • 1 c. chopped walnuts, optional
Remove label from milk and boil cans for 3 hours covered completely in water. (You can boil more at the time for another pie later). -Keep watch because it tends to evaporate very quickly.
Take milk (which is now caramel) can out of water after boiling and let completely cool. (about 30 minutes) It told me to let it cool for 1 hour but if you do that it will be so hard to take out of the can because it tends to gel.
Pour caramel from can into pie crust.   Place in refrigerator.  At about the 3 hour mark, layer Cool Whip on top of pie. Let chill for about 6 hours to firm up properly.  When ready to slice, sprinkle nuts and mini chips on top for decoration.
*next time im going to try to use small (personal) graham cracker crusts
*i think i might reduce it to one can, two cans was just too much caramel
