Favorite Prime Purchases & Show Recommendation

 We've been using Prime more than ever lately and here are some of my favorites from the last year.

I started with the smaller bottle of this nail and cuticle oil and it's lasted over  3 months while using it at least twice a day.  My nails look a lot healthier and feel stronger. 





I thought  my old Nook Color Reader was dying and my last ditch effort was to get a new cable. It worked! Now I can continue borrowing e-books from the library.

These sneakers have been worn on repeat for my daily walks. They are so lightweight and comfortable.  They can be worn with or without socks. I'm looking to order the Apricot color for a spring/summer neutral.





I got this for Christmas and I'm a  convert!  The silk is much easier on my hair and skin at night.
I wanted a bigger doormat for the front door to layer with my other decorative doormats.  It definitely needs another heavier one on top or it will blow around.



This mascara  has a cult following and over 124,000 reviews. For $5 it was worth a try. It gives great volume and such a deal!

Someone recommended this Amazon Original  Series to me and I loved  it!  Here's the synopsis. 
In the summer of 1985, 20-year-old David Meyers takes a job as a tennis pro at Red Oaks Country Club in suburban New Jersey, as his parents, girlfriend, and co-workers pull him toward a future he's increasingly unsure he wants.

See the trailer here
If you like 80's movies and nostalgia, I think you'll enjoy it too!

{Get Thrifty} Winter Thrifting

  It's fun to get thrifting again and I've found a new thrift shop near my house.  

Here's my haul from a recent trip and from one in December.      
I love scoring Lauren Conrad tops (on left) while thrifting.   I'm a fan of the boho patterns and flow-y designs.  I also cannot pass up a good striped shirt! I've worn this GAP shirt a few times already.

On a morning walk.

I found grey sweater with a bit of sparkle and some black jeans. I also picked up the  sweet cameo pin.  You never know what you're going to find!

My favorite place to get flannels is definitely the thrift store. They are nicely broken in and super  soft.
I found this round cutting board and cleaned it up, then applied mineral oil to bring  back its natural beauty. I loved this little quiche dish. It will be great for dips and smaller baked dishes.  Have you been thrifting lately?

{Recipe} Healthy Seed Bark

This healthy seed bark is a mildly sweet treat that is fully of healthy seeds and a kick of ginger!

It's so easy to make and keeps well in an airtight container for weeks.
Ingredients:
1 1/2  cups raw pumpkin seeds
1/2 cup raw sunflower seeds
1/4 cup raw (or toasted) sesame seeds
1/4 cup ground flaxseed
2 TBS chia seeds
1/4 cup crystallized ginger, diced  (optional, but highly recommend)
2-3 TBS maple syrup

To make:
Preheat oven to 350ºF.
Line baking sheet with parchment paper.
Add all of the ingredients (except maple syrup) to a large bowl, stir to combine.
Add maple syrup and stir well to coat all of the seeds.

Pour out onto lined baking sheet, spreading out to about 1/4"-1/3" thick.
Use another sheet of parchment paper on top to press it out evenly.
Bake for 18 minutes, flipping pan halfway through baking.
Keep an eye on it so it doesn't burn.
Remove from oven and let it cool for about 20 minutes, you'll  hear it crackling as it crisps up and cools.
Break it up  into bite size pieces.  
Once completely cool, store in an airtight container.
This is a lot like a crunchy granola and I love it on top of my oatmeal or by itself  as a snack.

{Photography} VIP Head Shots

I got to photograph two very special clients when they were home.  
College Girl needed a  photo for her co-op  job.
City Girl also needed some new shots and let me take some of her.  I used natural light and a handmade backdrop for both of the sessions.   I'm working towards studio lighting and I need more models!
