DIY Lip Balm Recipe

Never again will I be buying my lip balm from the store, because I found an amazing DIY alternative! It contains Coconut Oil and Cocoa Butter so you know it's great for your lips, and it made such a big batch that I will not be running low anytime soon! Which is great because this has become my all time favorite balm recipe. Check out this amazing recipe under the DIY and Crafts Tab!

Many Blesings,

Zesty Chicken Fingers!!

It's been a long time since my last post, but I finally found some time to post new cooking tutorial, it's a homemade recipe for Zesty Chicken Fingers so go and check it out under the Cooking Tab (do it, it's super delicious!)

Also in other news I recently subscribed to Birchbox and I plan on reviewing the beauty items that I receive from my first box later this month, and if it's a service that I enjoy and get a lot of great products from, I will end up doing monthly reviews.

Have a lovely day!

Great Discoveries!

I found an amazing online website that allows you to upload and edit photos as well as create graphic designs for free, so you're definitely going to see this implemented into the blog a whole lot (once I figure it all out that is). I also posted a super easy and delicious homemade strawberry short cake recipe to the Cooking Tab, so be sure to go and check it out!

TGIF, have a great weekend!

P.S. I'll hopefully have a new cooking tutorial up within the next few days!
