It’s finally Friday and the heat is on!
I am so ready for the weekend and tomorrow’s plans include clearing out my little garden because the mint has taken over! I want to add some basil, peppers and tomatos and get a few flowering baskets to hang around the deck.
It’s time to fire up the grill and spend evenings sitting outside, I love this time of the year!
What are your plans for the weekend?

The Sugar n Spice Voxbox that I received from Influenster contained a box of Dickinson’s Original Witch Hazel Oil Controlling Towelettes. These towelettes are suppose to lift dirt and remove impurities from the skin without irritation. They contain 3 simple ingredients, Witch Hazel, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice and Sodium Benzoate which makes them oil free, non-drying and can be used on all skin types.
I’ve never had problem skin and only use makeup removal cloths so I asked my oldest son to test them as he suffers from occasional breakouts and teenage acne. Unlike my youngest, he is not particular with his grooming products so he agreed to help with the review. He used one towelette each morning for a week and this was his report:
Likes:
- didn’t irritate or sting his face
- didn’t make his face dry
- noticed his face was clearing
- great size to use on face and neck
- packaged great for travel
Dislikes:
- the smell, it didn’t stink but didn’t smell that great either -(Witch Hazel has always had a distinct odor)
BEFORE
T
AFTER
Used a week with a noticeable difference, he likes the product therefore, we will be purchasing this product.
They are available at most of the major stores like Walgreens, CVS and Walmart.
I have 4 coupons for $2.00 off and if interested, send me an email – ablake48@gmail.com
(1st come 1st served)
This is NOT a paid endorsement.
I received the product complimentary from Influenster for testing purposes, opinions are completely my own.

Hello Friends, I hope you are having a terrific Tuesday.
It appears as though everyone is back to work because the commute was slow and I drove even slower trying to save gas. Can you believe the prices, I last paid $3.65 for a gallon and it’s goes up a few cents every day. How much is it in your area?
My commute is 100 miles round trip and it is definitely putting a dent in my wallet, so to save money I have vowed not to shop until April when the prices are supposed to drop. The economic recovery is no where near where it should be and these gas prices aren’t helping! Before my self imposed shopping freeze I was able to snag two skirts from JC Penney’s for $5 each and am wearing one of them with a thrifted top and blazer.
Liz Claiborne Collection Skirt – JC Penney // Oxblood Top – GW Boutique (Goodwill) // Black Blazer – GW Boutique
Necklace and Earrings – Payless // Ring – Avon // Hose – Walmart
The Merona pumps were part of the clearance shoe haul from Target.

This morning we were surprised with a “Snow Burst”, it was beautiful but made for a very dangerous commute, it took me 2.5 hours to get to work! I passed several accidents but made it safely which is all that matters, and this evening we will be celebrating Malik’s 17th birthday!

Hello Friends and Happy Fri-Yay – Fri-Yay – Fri-Yay!!
Our local forecast was way off, we only got a few flakes early this morning and now the sun is shining on this a beautiful crisp Winter’s day. What are your plans for the weekend, will you be doing something fun outdoors? Not me, tomorrow I’ll be stuck inside my closet thanks to a mini avalanche that occurred last night.
Less than a minute after hanging up a shirt the top rack came crashing down taking down the one beneath it as well. Thankfully I had just stepped back otherwise I could have been hit in the head with falling purses! (don’t laugh, it was a hard hat zone!) I could only just look up and stare, hubby said, “you have too many clothes” – bite your tongue man! He offered to re-do my closet with sturdier material so tonight off to Lowes we go. I wish my closet looked like his…..
and not like this!!!!
Today’s outfit was born out of the chaos in my closet. The scarf which was hidden on a shelf along with the boy’s baby blankets and box of teeth – (what do you do with baby teeth?) was the palette. Most of my shoes are covered underneath all those shirts so I am wearing a pair of the loafers I just bought from Target. They were still in the spare bedroom and had never made it into the closet along with these purple jeans.
Scarf – closet staple // Sleeveless shirt – GW Boutique (Goodwill) // Cardigan – Walmart // Skinny Jeans – Citi Trends // Loafers – Mossimo via Target // Ring – MizOutlet.com // Bracelets and Earrings – Jewelry Box
All in all I think I made the chaos work for this casual Friday – what do you think?
Linking up with Casual Chic Mom, You Like Me! and perfect for today FRIDAY CHAOS with ohsoamelia – hop on over and meet some new bloggers.
Have a great afternoon – Smooches!

Hello Friends and Happy Fri-Yay!
This morning I jumped out of bed when I realized it was Friday….tomorrow I can sleep in – yay! I am such a sleepy head, I never get enough sleep – sometimes I am tired of being tired. Commuting back and forth to work 1 & 1/2 hours each way every day really takes a toll on me and my car. Tomorrow I am sleeping in until noon!!!
How many of you remember Elvis Presley’s hit, Blue Suede Shoes – well this is my version of the shoe, actually booties and they are much nicer than what he sang about. If you do remember Elvis, what was your favorite song or movie, I liked Blue Hawaii.
These blue studded booties by Bamboo were purchased several years ago from Burlington Coat Factory and the skinny jeans were $16.44, from “Wally World” (Walmart). They had several different colors and I may have to get another pair because of the fit. I chose 1 size up because they are low riders, but I think I can get away with a pair in my regular size. The sleeveless tank was purchased on clearance from Boscov’s, and the jacket was thrifted from GW Boutique (Goodwill). Silver cuff bracelet from Citi Trend, rings and earrings from my jewelry box.
Wednesday, my son’s Business Class went on a Field Trip to Macy’s in NYC, he purchased a pair of Nike Sneakers and this T-Shirt which I thought was really nice. I can’t wait until he no longer wants it because I’d love to wear it!

Hello Friends and Happy 1st Day of the New Year 2013.
Last night I stayed up until 3:00 am watching The Twilight Zone Marathon so today slept in until noon. I love the first day of the year because it’s perfect for laying back and relaxing. I purchased a Foot Bath from Walmart last week, it was half price and something that I really needed. To the warm water I added Lavender Epson Salt purchased from Dollar Tree and a few drops of aromatherapy oil which made it even more relaxing.
Instead of polishing my nails, I chose to use Sally Hansen Salon effects Polish Strips. The pattern is “Skinny Jeans” and was on clearance at Walgreens for $2.49. I have tried other brands but have found Salon Effects to be the easiest to install and lasts the longest.
