"Freezer Pucks"

I have a nifty little tip. I'm sure this is nothing new and that many people do this, but I love it so I thought I'd share.

I made delicious French onions soup tonight. It's one of my favorite comfort foods. But it takes a solid 2+ hours to cook. That's a lot of work and, unless you are cooking for a lot of people, you are going to have leftovers.

Look at that delicious oniony goodness!

I don't know about you, but I suck when it come to leftovers. I always forget about them until they've gone past their "still smells fine" test and then all you did was waste a bunch of food. So, I found as awesome trick to save my creations and leftovers. I first used it to save that half a jar of marinara that you always let sit in the fridge after making pasta and forget about it until you are too frightened to even open the jar again.

All you need is a muffin tin, a freezer and a large freezer bag.

First Impressions: Shea Moisture African Black Soap facial system

I am going on a skin adventure. Tag along for the ride.

Recently, my skin has decided it doesn't want to grown up and has reverted back to it's 16 year old self. My chin, forehead, nose and, for the first time in my life, cheeks have exploded in acne, the likes of which I haven't seen in a decade. I'll attribute it to wedding planning stress but, still, it's no fun being a nearly 30 year old woman with the skin of a hormonally imbalanced teenager. And it is defiantly something that I do not want to have to worry about on my wedding day. With several months still to go before the big day, now is the time to test a few new products to see what will be my saving grace.

My Body Shop tea tree toner has long since run dry and I am starting to run out of my face wash as well. Right before I was about to go brave the Mall of America to get some more, I noticed this little set at Target in the hippy dippy face care products section.
