OOTD – Toasty Tuesday July 16, 2013

Hello Friends and Happy Tuesday!

Today is going to be another hot and steamy day, and this is actually Heatwave #4. If you follow me on Instagram you would have seen the 5-day forecast for the Delaware Valley – HOT HOT and HOTTER. The Meteorologist stated he preferred the cold and snow of winter but I love the heat of the summer. Deciding what to wear isn’t a challenge since I’m in an air conditioned car or office most of the day and I was going to wear all black but decided to throw in a little pink.

7:00 am and the sun is shining brightly

Which do you prefer, the cold of Winter or the heat of Summer?

Love my Pink & White pumps from Rugged Wearhouse

Tank – GW Boutique // Pencil Skirt – Walmart

Enjoy your day and stay cool – Smooches!

Linking up today with Tough Cookie Mommy & Love & Loyally – come on over and join in on the fun

Sunday Service in the Sanctuary July 14, 2013

Hello Friends and Happy Sunday

There’s something special about going to a Church Service on a Sunday morning after a sad Saturday night. The lifting up of prayers in the sanctuary and bonding brightens your day and provides clarity.

I thank God for being blessed and highly favored and wish the same for you,

MAY PEACE AND BLESSINGS BE UPON YOU MY BLOGGY FRIENDS!

OOTD – Flora Friday July 12, 2013

Hello Friends and Happy Fri-Yay!

What are your plans for the weekend? As with most of the MidAtlantic area we have had rain and overcast skies all week and it’s supposed to be the same tomorrow and Sunday so there will be no pool lounging. I will however, be lounging around the house, doing a few chores and working on my blog, and maybe take a few naps in between.

Today’s casual Friday outfit is “faux lace” floral jeans from Rugged Wearhouse and a simple cinched waist Faded Glory top from Walmart.

Blending in with the deck pillows!

Cut-out wedges were purchased at Marshalls 2 years ago, never worn

I always have to wear a belt with low-rise jeans

Enjoy your weekend – Smooches!

Friday Foodie Feature – Summer Snacks July 12, 2013

Hello Friends and Happy Fri-Yay!

My sons are continuing their quest to “eat me out of house and home” and the foods that I featured in the Summer Snacks post are not filling enough! During a recent shopping trip to Shoprite I came across two items that may keep them satisfied until dinner!

Philly’s Best Steak Co., Inc. Halal Lamb Sandwich Slices

They can make cheesesteaks, Gyro’s, Stir Fry or I can use them to make Moroccan Lamb Couscous. These steak sandwiches are also available in Halal Beef and Chicken.

Perdue Sweet Italian Chicken Sausages

They can boil, pan fry or throw these sausages on the grill to make a hoagie, a wrap or simply eat them with eggs and grits for breakfast.

Add a salad with black olives, goat cheese, mixed greens and cucumbers and they should be alright until dinner!

The search continues for more in-between-meal snacks for my mini-men – any suggestions?

Linking up with Living Better Together – hop on over and join the fun!

Have a fantabulous day!
