Whole Wheat Waffles

Waffles can be a healthy breakfast… because I say so. Sometimes I want the healthiest breakfast on earth, like a smoothie.  I haven’t made many of those recently.  😉  Other times (usually on the weekends) I want… a less healthy breakfast.  Meaning that the calories simply don’t matter and I enjoy something like an Egg in a Bread Sandwich.  Then there are times when I want something that falls in between those extremes and that’s where these waffles come in. My husband makes amazing French Toast, Waffles, and pancakes.  Once upon a time ago, I told him that I make terrible …

Chocolate Chip Banana Bread

I had exactly two ripe bananas in the house.  Do you know what that means?  It’s banana bread time… You know, like Hammer time? I used to love the song, U Can’t Touch This!  Who am I kidding?  I still love it!  I am dating myself, but it is an oldie but goodie.  Did anyone else watch the music video over and over to try to learn the dance steps?  No?  Anyone?  Just me?  Okay, that’s embarrassing if I’m the only one.  Anyway, you can touch this banana bread and I hope you do because it’s SO delicious. Let me …

How to Clean Makeup Brushes

Do you know how to clean your makeup brushes?  Wait, maybe we should start with a simpler question… do you know that you should clean your makeup brushes? Unless you like throwing away expensive brushes (because let’s face it, even the cheap ones can be pretty pricey), you should clean your makeup brushes.  When you clean them you’re getting rid of old makeup, oil, dirt, and even bacteria.  Gross. Usually I clean my makeup brushes with hand soap and felt it did the job.  I’ve heard some people use baby shampoo instead, but I’ve never tried that because I don’t …

Stuff I’m Into

Happy Friday, my friends!  Here’s the Stuff I’m Into lately: Tassels, Bright Colors, and Clutches, Oh My!  The embroidery detail on this Star Mela clutch is amazing.  I don’t usually wear a lot of bright colored clothes, but accessories are great way for me add a touch of color into my outfit without feeling self conscious about it.  It’s sold out from the website I bought it from, but I found it here. P.S.  My husband says it looks like a potato sack, but I’m going to pretend he didn’t say that.  😉   Summer Lusting.  For the past two months I have been lusting over Tory …

Egg In A Bread Sandwich

Last weekend, I had a craving for an egg in a bread.  Do you know what that is? An egg in a bread is exactly what it sounds like, a piece of bread with an egg cooked in the middle of it.  It’s most commonly known as egg in a basket, but it goes by many other names.  My mom called it “egg in a bread” so that’s what I still call it today. Is an egg in a bread just like toast and fried eggs?  Not at all.  The bread slices are sort of fried in butter, which is completely different than putting a pad of butter on …
