Easy Kosher Rice Krispie Treat Shapes!
Friday, December 26, 2014
I was so excited about making Rice Krispes, because I haven't made any since junior high school. So I thought this Holiday Season would be the perfect time to make them for my family.
Recipe Ingredients:
Two 10oz Bags of Marshmallows | 1/2 Stick Of Butter | 4-6 Cups Of Rice Krispies
I found these Marshmallow's at the Kosher Market. I don't eat pork, so finding an alternative Marshmallow that doesn't have gelatin in it, is Great!( If your looking for a kosher market just Google local kosher markets in your city)
| Cooking |
Put your stove on LOW and SLOWLY melt the butter and marshmallows together. You will know when its done because the consistency will be smooth and creamy.
** Be careful not to burn your marshmallows (take your time )
| Mixing |
After you pore in the marshmallows, start mixing everything together with a spatula.
** Make sure you butter your spatula and mixing bowl to avoid sticking
| I first transferred my mixture into a pyrex dish to cool, then I started shaping them. |
I decided to make balls, but you can also use cookie cutters and make different shapes.
| Enjoy!:) |

Ways to Relieve Stress & Pamper Yourself
Sunday, December 7, 2014
1. Relaxing Spa Bubble Bath
Bubble Bath:
Essential Oils:
Tea Tree Oil helps with Cleansing the Body of Toxins and Stress.
Lavender Oil keeps the body calm and at a relaxed state.
Peppermint Oil Cools the body off and gives you a nice refreshing feeling. (Great for in the morning to wake you up)
** Essential oils were purchased at sprouts
Fragrance:
Don't forget to smell delicious when you get out the tub! I'm loving this new holiday collection from bath and body works! FROSTED WONDERLAND is Heaven! Since this is winter time go for more moisturizing lotions or body creams that have Shea butter for added moisture in these dry months.
Candles:
I like to start off my day of pampering by lighting candles and setting
the right mood! I like to add some scents when I'm relaxing. My two
favorite candles at the moment are Walnut Brownie by Living Colors (this
candle smells just like a brownie!!) & Bourbon Blondie by Target
(this candle also smells like a brownie) The two candles combined
reminds me of being in a bakery with home made cookies, cakes and
brownies!! Its wonderful.

Directions:
- Wash your face with a gentle cleanser, then Dry

Hopefully these tips help you and you can go home and have a Nice Pamper Night to relieve some stress!

Quick Lunch Idea!! (Black Pepper Turkey Melt)
Wednesday, December 3, 2014
I know a lot of times we want a quick and easy lunch so this is literally my go to lunch when I'm in a hurry. Whenever I go to the store I make sure I pick up these simple essentials for a great lunch through out the week.
List of these Simple Products:
- Hoagie Style Bread
- Black Pepper Turkey
- Colby Jack Cheese
Since this is a really quick and easy recipe or (sandwich) there's not much to it.
just layer however much meet and cheese you like (on separate pieces of bread)
** but make sure you put cheese on top of the turkey also, if you would like (forgot to mention that)**
Pop the bread in the oven on broil until the sandwich is lightly toasted then put it all together and ENJOY!
See told you, very simple and quick. I just paired my sandwich with some cheesy ruffles!
Until Next Time XOXO<3
So with that being said the first thing I bought was FROSTED WONDERLAND! First lets just say the packaging on this holiday collection is Perfect! It really stands out and with the frosted flakes its so pretty. I love anything cute, and packaging is very important for me. So A+ for Bath & Body works!!
This smell reminds me of the winter time. It's very soft and relaxing! I chose all body creams instead of lotion because it's winter time and I want my skin to be as moisturized as possible.
The next thing I got was TWISTED PEPPERMINT! This is my Favorite smell so far. I love peppermint so much, anything with peppermint in it, I want. This smell is like a sweet peppermint. I makes me feel so alive and happy. Ive been using it at night and I think It helps me sleep better. It mint add a little cold tingle tot the skin, very refreshing. I picked up the body cream and spray.
Then I got the SUGAR PLUM DREAM! body cream. I only wanted the body cream because sometimes, since it's winter, my hands get really dry and I like to have something that smells good but also adds moisture. Now Bath & Body works add Shea butter in there lotion and body cream for 24 hour moisture. With me living in such a dry climate like Arizona, this helps a lot.
Last but not least I picked up a simple body cream, which is the COUNTRY CHIC! I've had the set before but I just wanted to get the body cream because I love the smell. If your looking for something soft and calming, this is the perfect smell. I will forever love this smell.
I hope you enjoyed this holiday haul from bath & body works. Hopefully you will try some of these also. I know what my staples will be this winter season. Direct links to all of these products are in the post.
Until Next Time XOXO<3
