5 Steps to Throwing the Perfect Galentines Party

5 Steps to Throwing the Perfect Galentines

Hello Pretty Ladies,

Valentine’s Day is fast approaching, and there is something so fun about celebrating the friendships in your life by having a Galentine’s party. So today I am sharing 5 Steps to Throwing the Perfect Galentines Party. With items to decorate from Walmart that are so festive and affordable. Along with a couple of outfits, ideas I think you’ll love.

 

What is Galentine’s Day

Galentine’s Day is an unofficial holiday celebrated on February 13th. The holiday was made popular by the TV series Parks and Recreation and celebrated female friendships and relationships, especially if you don’t have a significant other. Galentine’s Day involves women honoring the important ladies in their lives through gift exchanges, dinners, gatherings, spa days, and more. It’s a great time to show appreciation for the strong bonds between women!

 

5 Steps to Throwing the Perfect Galentines

 

 5 Steps to Throwing the Perfect Galentines:

1. Set the Scene: Decorations, snacks, and atmosphere are essential (see my picks above)

2. Pick Your Guests: Invite your best gals for a night of laughter, stories, and fun.

3. Plan an Activity: Whether you watch a movie together or play a game, choose something everyone will enjoy!

4. Honor Each Other: Give thoughtful cards or gifts to show each other how much they mean to you.

5. Serve food & drinks: Serve decadent treats like chocolate-dipped strawberries or heart-shaped cookies. Or Wow them with a chocolate fondu Charcutier board! Easy to put together and looks so festive. Really Celebrate your friendship over a delicious meal!

New Year's Target Home Refresh

Hello Pretty Ladies,

Christmas has been taken down, and the house feels a little empty. I love doing a little home refresh in January. How about you? Adding just a few pieces to your home decor can give a minor update. I found a few pieces at Target to freshen up your home, whether you’re looking for a small amount of furniture, a new lamp, or a great coffee table book to inspire you. Target has some great affordable pieces.

I love changing up my dish towels and refreshing the pillows. It’s a great affordable way to give a little update/refresh to your home. Adding a new piece of art or a mirror can give your room a new look, while a new little accent piece, like a chair or a small dresser, can change the room’s look. 

Here are my picks from Target:

Upholstered Natural Wood Accent Chair – Hearth & Hand™ with Magnolia

 

16″ Faux Olive Leaf Potted Plant – Hearth & Hand™ with Magnolia

 

3-Drawer Wood Dresser – Hearth & Hand™ with Magnolia

 

Assembled Resin Table Lamp Tan – Threshold™ designed with Studio McGee.

Cheaters Homemade Garlic Bread

January 8, 2023

Cheaters Homemade Garlic Bread

Cheaters Homemade garlic bread

Hello, Pretty ladies.

Today’s Sunday recipe is one of my Family’s all-time favorite garlic bread! I shared a little of their reaction below. I hope you try this recipe, and let me know in the comments. Have a great Sunday. 

 

Homemade Garlic bread!

Cheaters Homemade Garlic Bread! This is so dang good I have to make two loaves for this Family of 7!

Garlic Bread Recipe:

Loaf Rhodes Frozen Bread

One cube butter

One tablespoon of  minced garlic

 Tablespoon (1) Garlic Seasoning

1/2 Teaspoon Italian Seasoning

NOTE: This Bread is not for someone on a diet 

How to:

First, Place the frozen loaf on a cooking sheet lined with parchment paper, and cover it with a linen dishtowel.

(or cheesecloth) let rise. (follow directions on the bag) Bread rising usually takes ALL day. I’ll get this ready at about 9:00 am to make for dinner around 6:00 pm. When risen, bake at 350 until golden brown. (follow the directions on the packaging.)  While Bread is baking, melt a cube of butter in the microwave, then add garlic and seasoning and mix. 

When the Bread is out of the oven, brush on a heavy coating of the Butter mixture. Let excellent for about 10-15 minutes slice (Bread will still be warm and will sink, it’s ok), then coat each piece with more butter mixture. Serve hot and almost gooey. 

Family’s reaction:

This Bread is a family favorite, and when my family sees it on the counter in the morning, they jump for joy. They’ll eat two whole loaves; if I made three, that would get eaten too. It’s so rich, soaked in butter and garlic. It’s heavenly! I serve this Bread with soups, Pasta, and even salads. If you watch my stories, and I hope you do, you’ve seen me make it several times while staying at home was in place. ( heck, probably one of the reasons I’ve gained 10 pounds!) 

How did it get its name? Well…Cheaters because, well, you cheating and not making the loaf from scratch! Nobody’s got time for that! Insert Giggle! Hence, I named it My Cheater’s homemade garlic bread.

 

Thank you

Thank you for stopping by and reading today’s day’s blog post. Do you love good garlic bread? I’d love for you to tell me in the comments. You can also find me on Instagram, Pinterest, Liketoknowit, Amazon shops, and Facebook.

5 make up products from 2022

January 6, 2023

Five makeup products from 2022 changed my skin’s look and how I did my makeup.

5 make up products from 2022

Hello pretty ladies, 

I hope your first week of the new year is going well. I wanted to share five makeup products that significantly changed how I did my makeup and what it did for my skin. Video HERE where you can get a visual. These five makeup products either helped give my skin a dewy/glow or helped me achieve a better or easier look. As we age, our skin loses its natural youthful glow. I found products that help achieve that glow without glitter sinking into pours. It is all about the light.

I had girlfriends comment on how good my skin was looking, and even though I will give a lot of credit to my skincare regimens, it was because of the products I added to my makeup routine that gave my skin the appearance they were noticing. 

 

✨ It’s all about the glow✨

 

Here’s what I used to get that dewy glow in 2022✨

5 make up products from 2022

Trinny London BFF serum

Trinny London BFF– de-stress-tinted skincare formula helps to reduce the appearance of everyday stress on the skin. Instantly plumped and radiated.

Use wear alone or layer for desired coverage. Great on aging skin, as it doesn’t settle into pores. 

 

5 make up products from 2022

Olivier Midy-Eclat Midy-Face oil

Olivier Midy face oil-It helps your skin and gives a beautiful glowy & dewy complexion. It allows makeup not to sink into pours and achieves that plumper, dewy completion. Apply all over after moisturizer.

See how to layer skincare HERE properly.

*Note the product is pricy, but you use very little, so it lasts a long time.

5 make up products from 2022

Charlotte Tilbury-Hollywood flawless filter

I wear  #3, fair pale, Hollywood Flawless filter

It gives you a youthful glow! This is a game changer in the glow department ✨✨✨ apply to the forehead, nose, and cheekbones before you apply your foundation or tint.

 

Charlotte Tilbury- Eyebrow set 3

Three products in one easy set!

–medium brown brow lift a pencil, 

–legendary brow= micro precision tinted brow gel

–Brow fix =brow serum gel to keep brows in place

It makes doing your eyebrows easy and fast✔️ This was something I struggled with, as I never really did anything to my brows as a teenager or later. Brows weren’t a big focus in the 90s, and mine had a natural shape. They were always very light, and so was my hair, so it never occurred to me to make them darker to frame the eye. (even in my modeling days, they never touched my brows)

Now, darker, more pronounced brows are a big trend. It’s funny how a brow style trends. I have read the thin 1990 brows are coming back. However, I will be sticking with my natural brow, darkened. The Charlotte Tilbury eyebrow pencil, tint, and gel help you to achieve easy shaping (pencil) and darkening (tinted brow gel) and stay put with the brow serum gel. 

5 make up products from 2022

Charlotte Tilbury- Filmstar Bronze & Glow

Contour and Highlight powder in light/medium/Clair-moven 

This due set comes in two sizes, so if you want to try it out, the small due is $29, Shown here. I just ordered the full size, as I love what it does for my skin. You apply as you would any highlighter on the forehead, nose, and cheekbones.

Next, add cream and cook until the liquid is

The pants I wanted to HATE… Meet the slightly bar The pants I wanted to HATE…

Meet the slightly barrel leg linen trouser,
Flattering, comfortable, so cute and on SALE…

I have said it before …that I didn’t like barrel jeans on my shape, as I’ve tried several and they just weren’t flattering on my ruler shape body….

Until I found these… they’re just the right amount of extra fabric, with out adding bulk and aren’t to high of a waste, that there so flattering…
Now, I am 5’91/2 so they’re a touch to short, but look darling with and adds balance with an tall ankle strap square block heel  sandal 🖤

The cutest denim top with puff sleeves, that hits right at the hip bone for a flattering balance. 

Statement earrings that match my shoes to perfection are from Chicos (older) I found some very similar you’ll love🖤🖤🖤

Pants are on sale (ends tonight)

Drop it like it’s HOT…. Balancing Menopause and m Drop it like it’s HOT….

Balancing Menopause and midlife can be tricky✔️

From weight gain, mood swings, sleepless nights, dry skin and lady parts, hair loss, eyesight issues, bone loss to personal summers (hot flashes)….. 

Boy hitting 40-50-60’s sounds fun 😅🤣 Actually, it really isn’t that bad, and life is what you make of it, Plus  getting old is a privilege….

In today’s time, we’re lucky because menopause is a Topic WE TALK about NOW, and we have more information and resources to HELP us, unlike our mothers.

Not everyone has every symptom nor do they experience every symptom. 

This is a topic I’ve shared a lot about over on my blog and in future more on my substack (join for free in my bio) 

Below ⬇️ are a few things I’ve found very helpful from my journey over the last 10 years to now, starting at about 44 years old.

-A Homeopathic Hormone replacement specialist- I went at 44 when I gained 12-15 pounds for no reason, had hair loss and wasn’t feeling like myself and went on Bio- identical hormone replacement for about 4 years and the weight feel off and I started to feel like myself again. I stopped I. 2020 due to not being able to get to doctors.. 

-Start a good clean supplement program (not a Doctor) but here’s what helped me.
Magnesium- zinc- Vitamin D3- vitamin K 
-a good women’s multivitamin - 
B-12 shots- Collagen- Colostrum- bone marrow- probiotic, a cranberry supplement and - creatine - NAD- primrose (I have a few others I take as well) full list is on blog 

- Doubled my water intake - (140-160 oz a day) added Fiber- chia seeds- pinch of salt to it … (I do 1/2 teaspoon baking soda twice a week) 

-Daily walks and I added a weighted vest about 4 years ago 

-A cup of warm lemon water to start the day 

- I shoot  for 100 grams of protein daily (I don’t always get this) I just try to get close

-Scalp treatments - Rosemary oil and rosemary supplements 

- Coolnight pjs and cooling sheets  I don’t get or experience hot flashes, but sleeping cooler help me sleep better❤️

- cleansing oil & after Shower oil help with dry skin

-Red light therapy mask helps facial skin and neck

- Derma-planing face helps skin texture and for products to sink in
Melanoma Skin Cancer Journey Here’s a couple thi Melanoma Skin Cancer Journey 

Here’s a couple things I’ve learned on my Journey that I thought I’d share with you I found interesting and very helpful..
 ( now, I am not a doctor) these are things I’ve researched and though I’d share my findings, but you can do your own research :) 

I share in hopes to bring awareness and the importance of getting your skin checked at least once a year.

‼️ 2 things:

-The importance of taking zinc— zinc supplements helps your body give off a natural defense to the suns rays.

⚠️ Like anything I need to stress how important it is to read your labels and start using clean Supplements.  You want to get what you’re paying for and not “fillers” verses the actual minerals and herbs.

- A clean beauty mineral based 
Sunscreen with a high level of Zinc! READ your labels and the ingredientsll

MOST sunscreens have harmful ingredients and hormone disruptors in them! I have 5 brands I love that me and my family use  over on my Liketoknowit or you can comment “shop” and I’ll send them to you.

To know:

⚠️ I get my skin checked twice a year and since being diagnosed with melanoma, I now go every 3 months.

Since my surgeries, I’ve had 2 laser’s treatments to help with scaring (shown in slide 2 is my 2nd surgery) done 6 weeks ago.
I actually should have my 3rd laser done this week, but I moved it to July 1st. 

To be honest I really am not in the head space to deal with another treatment this week! 🙏🏻 I told you I’d be very honest with you in this journey, and it is a roller coaster of emotions… Laser treatments sometimes trigger that for me.

- Laser treatment can be done every 6 weeks

⚠️I have 6 parts of my journey up in my feed, 3 of them pinned to top the others you’ll have to scroll through feed and I have detailed highlights as well. 

I hope you find these helpful

POV: The Turkey sandwiches I make All summer long POV:
The Turkey sandwiches I make All summer long my family loves🥪

Not your ordinary Turkey, Avocado, tomato sandwiche🥪🥑🍅

First off the Key to these delicious sandwiches is warm crusty bread straight from the oven yet soft on the inside..

My tip is a French baguette ran under water (a tip my Mother in law taught me 33 years ago) placed in the oven for 5-7 minutes- seriously, makes it like you made it fresh… 

-Boards head spicy pepper Turkey freshly sliced from the deli
- Farm Fresh Tomatoes salt & peppered 
-Micro greens (or sprouts) 
- Peppered jack cheese (or your favorite)
-My Smashed Avocado spread 

Full recipe on my blog

A perfect summer meal to serve alfresco🪴🍽️
 
Serve with your favorite sides 
I served with my :
-Basil corn salad 
- a small charcuterie board
- my easy Blue cheese stuffed grape on a walnut appetizer

 A long  with your choice of sun tea - cucumber mint water or  a sparking water 🥤🍃

🚗Road Trip —Desserts and Pools—🌴🌊🌵🏜️🌺 Last leg of 🚗Road Trip
—Desserts and Pools—🌴🌊🌵🏜️🌺

Last leg of trip…2 days in Las Vegas

- A couple days poolside 
- A couple meals out
-Some shopping (just a little) 
- and yes, we had early nights in…

We’ve been to LV so many times, that we actually don’t enjoy it any more, it’s changed so much over the years, that we actually prefer to have pool time (eat at pool) stay close or at our hotel… Walking the strip is more scary then fun, and the restaurants aren’t what they used to be… people watching isn’t even fun anymore there:(

Lately, We just think of LV as a resting point before we drive the 6-7 long hours home. 

Over the years I’ve shared several amazing LV hotels, restaurants and shopping spots…. Some of those are still good, but several have gotten run down and aren’t the same.  I honestly don’t feel safe in LV and probably won’t have that be a resting point anymore. 

If you’re a gambler or like shows … then LV probably still has appeal, People don’t dress up anymore, the top quality restaurants & hotels aren’t what they used to be, and over priced for what you get. (Trust me we’ve stayed at almost all of the resort’s multiple times) 
I personally think there’s better places to visit. 

😉This is my observation and opinion over the last several times & years we’ve been to Lv. 

How do you feel about Las Vegas?
Have you been recently? 

Sorry, not sorry for my honest review!
