Happy New Year!

{Love myself and my handsome Ryan}

Hope you all had a safe and wonderful New Years Eve. Bring on 2012!

2011 in a Nutshell.

{Time flies when you're having fun.}

Lets start with makeup shall we? I really dropped the ball on creating new and exciting looks for you guys this year BUT remember that Fall Forward Collection I put together the months of August and September? Boy I sure was on a roll with that. Here is a small collage of some of my favorite looks from those two months.

Plus, there was a tad bit of Food and Fashion along the way.

Happy New Year! Here's to a killer 2012!

Four More Days.

Only 4 more days of busy retail work and I will ring in the new year with the man I love so much.

{AND, this handbag better get here quick! I have had my eye on it for a while and finally ordered it!}

Missing Friends.

{More than ever...}

Holiday Dinners

After tearing through presents, being lazy and enjoying some time in the sun, it was time to prepare dinner for my family. I went with a delicious Vegetable Polenta Pesto Lasagna. Ryan was a little worried about whether or not my family would enjoy the food but I knew it was going to be amazing. 

{You Need....}

- A glass dish to bake the lasagna in 7x11x2

- A tube of Polenta

- A jar of marinara sauce

- Mozzarella cheese (preferably shredded cheese)

- Pesto

-Pine Nuts

- And you can add any vegetables you'd like. We kept it simple and stuck to mushrooms.

*Preheat oven to 375 degrees and bake for 25 minutes. Then top lasagna off with another layer of mozzarella and pine nuts then broil for 5 minutes.

Oh the Holidays.
