Beach Boys Concert!

I really should have had this post up ages ago. I don't know what's taken me so long to get it up, but here it is so there you go haha

Our local county fair has a concert every year and this year it was the Beach Boys. I grew up listening to them since my mom was such a fan - hey mom! - so I was really excited to hear they would be there this year. My mom decided to splurge and got tickets for me, herself, my sister and my sister's boyfriend.

Diamond Candles Review & Giveaway

I received a candle complimentary from Diamond Candles. They are also providing the candle for the giveaway. 
All opinions are 100% my own.

I was beyond excited when I was contacted by Diamond Candles about trying one of their candles and hosting a review. I've seen friends like them on Facebook and post or re-post pictures in hopes of winning one and I have to admit that it got my curiosity going.

What exactly is a Diamond Candle? What makes it different from any of the thousands of other candles out there?

2 week recap - Minnie Monday

I bet you probably didn't know that watermelons are among the most dangerous fruits in existence, did you? Well at least they look and smell that way to me. I just HAD to check this one out a few times to make sure it wasn't going to roll away or sprout legs or something else equally random and scary.

July 2013 Favorites - Beauty, Craft, Food and Lifestyle

It feels like forever since I've done a proper post - maybe because it's been since April. It seems like as the months go on it's harder to find new favorites. Some things are pretty much Holy Grail products so new things that I LOVE are few and far between.

Also, this month I managed to film a video AND write this post. However, somehow between filming and this post I think I forgot some of my favorites...that said, some may be missing from the post below, but if it was mentioned in the video and not down there the info for it will be in the info bar of the video on YouTube.
