Show and Tell + 3 Things

Today I’m linking up with Andrea to talk about three things I couldn’t live without. I had such a difficult time with this one that I basically broke it down into categories that stuck out to me for no particular reason. Other than sunshine and my Bible coming first, I’m all over the place with my “can’t-live-without’s” so bare with me… 😉

Keurig/ Food Processor/ Vitamix

3 Kitchen Favorites: I talked about some of my favorite gadgets here but these are definitely the three that I use the most.

3 Beauty Favorites: I love make-up but skin care comes first in my book.

Straightener/Curling Iron/ Hair Dryer

3 Hair Favorites: These are my most reliable hair products and ones I couldn’t live without. 😉

Chevron/ Knit/ Fuzzy

Blankets: I have a thing with soft blankets. My Mom bought me one almost ten years ago for Christmas and I ended up with a collection to create all kinds of cozy in our home. I love a good, soft, blanket. I have Eric, my sister-in-law and his Grandparents to thank for adding to the collection. 😉

Congrats to Amanda Dolan on winning the Bob’s Red Mill gift set! Thanks so much for everyone who entered!

I hope everyone had a great Labor Day and has a happy Tuesday!

Friday Favorites

You know the drill. It’s Friday and I’m sharing my favorites with Erika, Narci, and Andrea!

One.5628Recently I stopped seeing my first love. Peppermint mocha creamer. I used to put it in my coffee every morning but couldn’t handle all the sugar any more. I have loved using a splash of almond milk and two drops of peppermint oil. It completely does the trick and I’m in heaven all over again. 🙂

Fall Favorites + Bob’s Red Mill Giveaway!

BOB'S-MILLGet comfy everyone because there are A LOT of goodies to share today! Pour yourself an extra cup of coffee and click your heart out!

I have been using Bob’s Red Mill products for years and cannot speak highly enough about them! ! I use at least one of their products on a daily basis. I always throw some flax seed and chia seed into my green smoothie. I use their flaked coconut and flax seed for my homemade granola and their vanilla protein powder in my blueberry banana protein smoothie. Today, I’m giving away a gift set of four of my favorite products to one lucky winner! Be sure to enter at the bottom and shop around below for some of their other yummies!

Today I’m also talking all about Fall Favorites with Andrea and Erika! How is fall so close?! I love summer so much but there are always things to look forward to in the Fall! Other than pumpkin everything, which I start veeeery early ;), I do crush hard on a new pair of boots. And scarves, sweaters, and flannel never fail to fill my closet before the season officially starts. 🙂

Friday Favorites

Fridays just started taking on a whole new meaning all over again! 🙂 I’m linking up with Erika, Narci, and Andrea for our favorites!

One.I love using these prep bowls! In all honesty, I wasn’t sure how often we would use them but Eric really wanted to. He was SO right. We use them ALL. THE. TIME!

Like for our fish tacos last week. 😉

Two.

I have a jam-packed weekend ahead. Hair appointments, my best friend from Germany will be here, and baby showers! Here we go!

Five.Caprese Bites Recipe at: stephanie-spring.comCaprese Bites stephanie-spring.com Caprese Bites stephanie-spring.comSome things just taste better bite-sized. These were so fun to make and a ten out of ten for any party. Not to mention, I was filing this away for the day we have kids and the assembly line that could be created. In three simple steps, you have a yummy appetizer at your finger tips. The ingredients can be tailored to your liking of size and proportion. Another perk: With the overflow of tomatoes and basil, you can whip these up in a few minutes for a Labor Day party!

 Ingredients: 

  • Mozzarella Cheese (cut into bite-sized squares)
  • Basil Leaves 
  • Cherry Tomatoes (halved)


What to do: 

Have all ingredients prepped and into separate bowls. Slide the middle of the basil leaf into the toothpick about three-quarters of the way. Slide the cheese, followed by the tomato. Serve and enjoy! 🙂 


Have a great Friday and weekend!
