:: superbowl, snacks, and swimsuits ::

January 31, 2017

Today I am sharing some Superbowl Snacks and some Swimsuits.

Because those go together, right?!

At the end of February, my girlfriends and I are heading to Scottsdale for a long planned getaway weekend. I think we have been counting down to this for about 7 months, so I can’t believe its finally close! We did this the year before last and had such a great time, so I am really excited. Plus I haven’t seen them in so long so it’ll be a DC-Atlanta-Chicago reunion weekend for all of us!

I keep finding myself loving one piece swimsuits, and I am so happy they have gotten fashionable again.

but without that horrid high-thigh cut like our swim team suits had when we were little.

All of the suits below are under $50!! with many under $40 and $30!

Who needs an expensive Equipment Scalloped edge suit when ya got Target?

// HIGH NECK SCALLOPED EDGE //

// FLORAL SCALLOPED HIGH NECK // BLACK SCALLOPED //

BLACK PLUNGE WITH SIDE CUT OUTS // STRIPED // PALM DESERT PRINT

The print on the next two swimsuits reminds me so much of the Tory Burch print that I adore.

// TORY BURCH ONE PIECE //

It’s not exactly the same, but definitely similar, and at a fraction of the price!

CROCHET HIGH NECK // RACER BACK

The four suits below have the Mara Hoffman’esque vibe.

I love the one on the far left wit the cut-out and the pink at the top, and the far right with the pink straps and open back!

ONE // TWO // THREE // FOUR

As I mentioned we’re heading to Las Vegas for the weekend for the Super Bowl!

My brother-in-law has a work event, so my sister is going with him, and Kip will be in Vegas again for work, so I am going along with him!
We’re using our husbands to our advantage and I’m so excited for the four of us to have a weekend away!

We are staying at the Cosmopolitan and I’ve only visited for drinks but never stayed there!

Even though I wont get to enjoy 97 different types of appetizers at a Super Bowl party since we wont be at a friends house, I still wanted to do a round-up of recipes.

An all snacks and finger foods and appetizers kind of food frenzy is my absolute dream world.

Let me know what kind of yummy munchies you’ll be making for Sunday!

3 super easy (make ahead!) favorite dessert options of mine:
I love this funfetti cookie cake – if I can make it look pretty, anyone can!
and who doesn’t love a cookie cake?

:: FUNFETTI COOKIE CAKE ::

my favorite go-to dessert: crack cake.
I often make this the night before (and store it covered with Saran Wrap in the microwave! new trick I picked up!)

:: CRACK CAKE ::

Make this graham cracker toffee at your own risk.
Once you start, it’s impossible to stop.

:: GRAHAM CRACKER TOFFEE ::

And call me #Basic, but my other favorite to bring is the Hawaiin Roll Ham Sliders.
You just can’t mess with a classic, and when you top those things with a bunch of melted butter they are just pure crack and you cannot stop.
For the anti-kitchen folk, Trader Joe’s pigs in a blanket + their cartelized onion feta bites are always a YES. And pimento cheese in phyllo cups, heated up in the oven.
Easy peasy!

A round up of recipes from around the internet!

January 25, 2017

I have a slightly large list of lusts for this week because I combined some of my weekend finds that I didn’t get to share into this post!

In February I am lucky enough to have some weekend getaways
to Las Vegas and Scottsdale,

so some warmer weather pieces may have snuck in there.

Let’s kick it off with this week’s steal of the week :
SUNNIES UNDER $25!!!!!

// TORTOISE SUNGLASSES //

No…. not $25,000….

JUST PLAIN UNDER $25!!!!
editors note: did you hear about Dana being in jail for Fraud? I guess she shouldn’t have flaunted those 25K shades and should have gone for the 25 dollar pair instead…..
