What about Wearing breezy Neutrals, loose lines & Gauze, and a touch of stripes? Straw hats and large bags? The Diane Keaton vibe in “Somethings gotta give.”

The Elvis Sandwich: Grilled Peanut Butter & Banana

The Elvis Sandwich: Grilled Peanut Butter & Banana Sandwich

The Elvis Sandwich: Grilled Peanut Butter & Banana

Hello Pretty Ladies,

Today, I am sharing The recipe & How to make Elvis’s Favorite Sandwich, On Good Things Utah, for a promotion for the upcoming Elvis movie. So, my first time, I’ll be sharing a recipe on tv. However, I am used to sharing fashion, so I might be slightly nervous this time. (Wish me luck!)  

If you follow me on Instagram, you know I share recipes and cooking in my stories. I love to cook for my family and share it with my followers. 

A funny thing…My hubby the other day made a peanut butter and banana sandwich, and I said, “oh, you’re making the Elvis sandwich!” He said, “what?” Ben had no idea that was Elvis’s favorite Sandwich! He said, “how do you know that?” I told him I had heard it years ago when I was a kid and never forgot it. My mom adored Elvis. I am sure it was her that said something. It’s a southern thing!

Now, Elvis liked his Sandwich grilled and made with a lot of butter and even bacon fat! So I am making it without the bacon fat and a little less butter! But feel free to make it the Elvis way!

Elvis Movie

Watch the Tv Segment on Good Things Utah

The Elvis Sandwich: Grilled Peanut Butter & Banana

The Recipe: 

Elvis Presley’s Fried Peanut Butter and Banana Sandwich 

Two slices of white bread

2 tablespoons butter

1 small ripe banana mashed

2 tablespoons creamy peanut butter

 

Directions

  • Place two pieces of white bread in the toaster on a light setting. Heat skillet over medium heat with two tablespoons of butter. While the bread is toasting, in a small bowl, using a fork, mash the ripe banana until it reaches a smooth consistency. Using a knife, take both pieces of the toasted bread and spread two tablespoons of creamy peanut butter, topping one side with the mashed banana. Place one slice of bread on top of the other, forming a sandwich. Place sandwich in a hot skillet, browning each side and flipping with a spatula for about 2 minutes per side. Take out of the skillet, slice on a diagonal, and serve on a plate.

Tip: This would be good drizzles with warm chocolate or honey. This Sandwich is warm, delicious, and gooey. You might want to eat it with a fork.

Soma Has All You Need to Pack For A Summer Getaway

Tips on packing light & stylish:-

Packing for a weekend can be daunting And overwhelming, not to mention over-packing. A great way to avoid over-packing is to pack items that mix and match well. Along with items that serve a couple of purposes.

For instance, Soma Soft Wrap can be worn as loungewear, a lightweight jacket over a dress or paired with jeans, or with your workout wear. You could even use it as a bathing suit cover-up. 

The Soma Cotton gauze robe could be worn as a robe, bathing suit cover, and as a duster pair with jeans and a tank. 

Packing items that can serve a dual purpose really helps keep packing easier and lighter.

Tip 2

Packing everything in a color theme really helps, with packing fewer shoes (which saves a ton of weight and space.) Also helps coordinate and minimize the jewelry and accessories. Along with helping with the above tip, things mix and match better.

5 Thoughtful and 5 Purchased Father’s Day Gifts for your Hubby

5 Thoughtful and 5 Purchased Father’s Day Gifts for your Hubby

5 Thoughtful and 5 Purchased Father's Day Gifts for your Hubby

Hello Pretty Ladies, 

It’s that time of year again where we’re thinking of dads & hubby gifts for Father’s Day. I know so many struggle with gift ideas for men. Being a boy mom, I think, makes it a little easier for me. Because I am always on the hunt for gifts my guys will love. So today, I am sharing 5 thoughtful gifts and 5 purchased gifts that my guys love. 

There are a lot of great ideas out there for men, especially if they have hobbies, the Golfer or Skier, Beer or Coffee Enthusiast. The office worker and the Car guy.

Whatever your dad is into, they make something cool that would make for a great gift. It is about thinking about what dad likes to do or how he likes to spend his time.  

5 Thoughtful Gift Ideas

  1. Make his favorite meal. My guys love food, as the saying goes…” A way to a man’s heart is through his stomach!” So cooking his favorite meal on his special day is thoughtful and always a big hit.
  2. Have his car detailed. Having your car detailed is a big treat, although all my guys like to wash and care for their vehicles. It shows your care to have his car cleaned and professionally detailed.
  3. Do “His” chores? Do you and your Hubby have chores you each do? You know the drill… Hubby mows the lawn. Do you do laundry? (or another way around) Whatever his “chores” are. You and the kids do them.
  4. Do an activity your Hubby likes to do, Go for a drive, a bike ride, boating, golf, etc. However, he wants to spend extra time and do that as a couple or as a family. 
  5. Give him a Massage. My Hubby loves massages, facials, and all the pampering. Pamper your Hubby.

 

5 Gifts You Can Purchase

 Gift ideas from Lululemon you can purchase for your Hubby he will love no matter what his hobbies, style, or taste are like. All of my guys love and use these things, and they are so happy to get them as gifts.

  1. Lululemon Shorts = Comfy made for  Running, training, or stretching. Wear these lightweight, multi-sport shorts for pretty much everything. Zippered storage keeps essentials close. My guys wear regular Summer shorts. They love the comfort. Shorts come in several colors. Bowline short is great too.
  2. Restfeel Men’s Slides=Dual-density is cushioning provides maximum comfort and support, and Minimalist strap upper with foam lining for an exceptional fit and feel. Great for poolside, but awesome after the gym or sports, excellent after a long day on your feet. Under $60
  3. Always in Motion Long Boxer= Comes in 2 lengths, 5″ and 7″. These boxers feature an ergonomic design and super-soft, quick-drying fabric for total comfort while working out or on the go. My guys love these, and it’s all they want to wear. No other underwear will do. The 3 pack is a better value. 
  4. Pool Short= Dads need a new swimsuit every year too! This isn’t just a swimsuit. Lululemon created these streamlined swim shorts with thoughtful details that make them perfect for a day in (or out) of the pool.
  5. The Fundamental T-shirt=When tech and comfort collide. This wardrobe staple blends soft cottony fabric with our abrasion-resistant and anti-stink technologies for a classic tee that’ll last. The tee shirt he’ll always want to wear. T-shirts Come in several colors.

You know I am a hat girl, and I wear them all year round, ALL the time. But, there is something about an excellent Summer hat that does finish off a summer look. It gives an outfit a completely different vibe! And I am here for it. Here are a few of my all-time favorite Summer hats, along with the couple I purchased this year.

Summer Bags

Whether your head to lunch with the girls or going to sit poolside, adding a summer bag or two to your wardrobe really is a must. Something about the straw, wicker, fabric, and the airy bags of Summer that transforms even the most uncomplicated summer look, of shorts and a tank, a tee shirt dress, or cropped jeans and a tee. The Bag finishes off the look and can up the game. Below are some of my picks this year.

What’s in my Beach Bag

What’s in my Beach Bag

What’s in my Beach Bag

Hello Pretty ladies,

If you caught Wednesday’s Chit chat chic live, you know we shared about our beach bags and what we like to take along with us to the beach, pool, or lake.

Now that the boys are grown, it looks slightly different than the oversized sand-proof totes and all the toys and essentials. The one big plus to midlife is you only have to take what you want/need and maybe think of my hubby. So with that said, I am sharing items I have taken in my bag on vacation.

 

The Beach Bag

This bag from WHBM is now on SALE, and I am telling you, YOU want it! It holds a ton, is sturdy, and oh so fun with its leopard print and large straw tassel.

 

 

The Cup

If you’ve been following me for a while, you know I am a huge Ice tea and water drinker. And if I am poolside/waterside, I will also have a cocktail… so, yes.. you could find me with three cups at the pool🥤🍹😂Here are the cups we own and take along⬇️

 

 

 

Sun Hat

You know I am a hat girl✔️, And I have some favorite Summer hats I wear year after year. I like they stay on my head and cover my face from the sun. Lack of color and Gigi pip are my go-to brands for styling and excellent quality hats.

 

 

 

The Towel

I am a little picky about my beach/ pool towels. I have always liked having them all match to keep track of them. Also, I  Like them oversized and very fluffy. I love the Pottery Barn towels and the classic black and white stripe. 

 

The Suntan lotion

Suntan lotion and browning lotion, I love the Tula suntan lotion for my face, Sun bum for my body, and browning lotion for my legs to help get a golden brown tan. 

 

 

SunGlasses

Great sunglasses are a must for poolside or beach days, and I love to have a pair of sunglasses that can also serve as readers. Peepers created just that. Two in one. Below are the pairs I have and use. 

 

 

 

Books and Tunes

Who doesn’t love a good Summer read and some tunes? I sure do, and below are a few of my past books I’ve loved reading poolside, along with how we listen to some tunes. We love the JBL speaker. It’s waterproof, Bluetooth, and lightweight, which gives off a great sound. Apple eye buds are great if needing to be personal versus music for a group.

 

 

Extra’s 

Below is a few other bag essentials, I always have In my bag, a face mist by Tula, the Tula I balm, A couple of Coola Suncare products. and my favorite Havana flip-flops. 

 

 

More Beach Bags

11 Free Date Ideas

11 Free Date Ideas

11 Free Date Ideas

Hello Pretty Ladies,

I thought it would be fun to share some fun free date night ideas with you that my hubby and I love to do with each other, along with a couple of reasons why it’s important to date your spouse.

 

The importance of Taking Time to Date your spouse:

Taking the time to date your spouse is essential to stay connected,  share your thoughts, and catch up on your week. Life gets busy with family duties, work, and life. It’s really easy to disconnect and eventually grow apart.

Why You Should Date your Spouse:

Ben and I make a point to have a weekly date night. Time for just him and I, no kids, no work, no duties. It’s our time that we can enjoy each other and talk about what is going on in our lives. Spending time together keeps us emotionally connected, which helps with staying physically connected.  

Here are a few great articles on the importance of Dating your Spouse: 

Importance of Friendship and Fun| 10 Reasons to date your Spouse| 5 Reasons it’s important to date your spouse

11 Free Date Ideas:

1. Bike ride– Taking a bike ride around the block is fine, but Searching out a fun bike path you maybe haven’t done makes it more special. Pack some snacks and stop for a little break to chat and Catch up.

2. Walk– I love a good walk. Research a fun walking path, pack a light meal and incorporate a picnic.

3. Picnic– Pack a picnic and head to the Park or scenic area, take in the view, and have a meal.

4. Pool or spa –  if you have one or have a community pool-make a charcuterie board and cocktails and enjoy some time together poolside. 

5. Go for a drive– One of my husband’s favorite things is to take a Sunday drive.  Depending on the time of the year, we’ll hop in the convertible, play some tunes and check out some new scenery. 

6. Cook -a new recipe together 

7. Coffee and chat– make coffees (tea), sit on the porch or deck, and catch up.

8. Home Spa day– hubbies can have home facials too. Pull out your Beauty products and give each other facials.

9. Hike– pack a picnic and go for a hike. It’s easy to find ones in your area. Google is your friend. In Utah, we like these four, depending on the level we’re feeling that day. 1. Water Fall canyon 2. Skyline trail 3. Ogden River Parkway trail 4. Wind Cave Trail

10. Concert– You say concerts aren’t free? Yes, a lot of areas have free concerts. It just takes a little google search. Live in Utah?  Snowbasin has Blue, Brews & BBQ, and Music in the mountains at Powder Mnt. , Silly Sundays Park City, and Canyons village Summer concerts, 

11. Movie night– pop some popcorn, grab a drink get comfy, and watch a movie you’ll enjoy. 

 

Think of where you live. Are you close to the beach, a lake, wildflower fields, scenic roads, and rivers? All of these beautiful surroundings make for a great free date spot.

Just Call me Martha With a Hack… Biscuits and Ber Just Call me Martha With a Hack…

Biscuits and Berries recipe is what “is this “Sunday’s in the Kitchen with D’Arcy”

I had heard good things about @magnoliatable  Buttermilk Biscuits,
And I’ve been wanting to try them. 

I thought that would be a good quick hack to serve them for a Sunday breakfast treat.

I brushed them with 🧈French Butter and French flaky Salt… (makes all the difference) you could eat them just like that…

I served them with Homemade Whipping cream and my Strawberry sauce along with Fresh Berries🍓🫐🌱

So so good… this would be a great brunch side dish or dessert as well.

These biscuits would make a great mini breakfast sandwich- egg cheese and bacon✔️
Or my Family’s  favorite-Biscuit’s and Gravy
