Influenster!

Before you buy something it's always nice to hear how other people liked the product that you were thinking about trying.  When I buy makeup or nail polish, I scour the blogs and youtube world to hear how other people liked the product.  Look no further because I am going to tell you about some products that was sent to me by Influenster.  I signed up for Influenster and unlocked as many badges as I could.  They sent me an email and said that I qualified to receive a Holiday VoxBox filled with products to try and to also review.  So now, I am sharing with you! I will give you my initial thoughts on the following products:

1.) Mentos Pure Fresh gum:
  • This gum lasts a LONG time!!  It is minty at first and then gradually softens the longer you chew.  You can feel your mouth getting cool from the minty flavor.  The pieces are about the size of a nickel and come 15 to a pack.
2.) Montagne Jeunesse Juiced Cucumber Peel off Masque
  • I have not tried this product yet, but I am so excited to!!  I have never tried a peel off masque before.  This masque says to deep clean your pores so with the busy holiday season coming up, it will be a good stress reducer.
  • This company does not test on animals
3.) Softsoap Coconut Scrub bars
  • These bars smell amazing!  I like the fact that there are exfoliants in the bars already.  I like products that can "kill 2 birds with 1 stone" so I don't have to exfoliate and use body wash at the same time!
  • I also like that this came in a 2 pack so I won't have to buy soap for a while!
4.) Broadway imPRESS Press-on manicure
  • I have not tried these yet, but I am going to give them to my mom to try.  She doesn't have very good nails so what a perfect thing to give her.  Plus, she can put them on for Christmas and have nice looking nails!
  • I also love the color name: Ex on the Beach
  • I LOVE the fact that we got a $1.00 off coupon too!
5.) LARABAR in Cashew Cookie
  • Yummy!
  • It's soft not hard like some bars are. 
  • I got a coupon to try the other flavors too!
6.) NYC Liquid Lip Shine in Nude York City
  • LOVE!
  • The applicator is different than any other applicator it's flat.
  • It gives a pretty sheen to your lips. It's not nude  but gives a "your lips only better sheen."
  • Slight vanilla scent
I will come back with the products I didn't try and give everyone an update!  Thanks for reading!

Cooking for a Crowd: Spaghetti Sauce

My family likes to save money when we have parties. One way to do so is to cook everything ourselves, instead of hiring a caterer. Today, I wanted to give you a recipe for spaghetti sauce that will feed a crowd. This recipe is best made in an 18 quart roast pan. We bought most of our sauces and tomato paste at Costco. Ingredients: 2 onions 3 cans diced tomatoes 2 #10 cans of tomato sauce 1 #10 can on spaghetti sauce 1 heaping tsp of garlic minced 2 (28 oz) cans of crushed tomatoes 4 (6 oz) cans of tomato paste 1 tsp sugar Onion and garlic salt, italian seasoning, parsley, oregano to taste 1 pound of each: ground meat, hot and sweet sausage Look at the deliciousness!  In a skillet brown your meat and sausage in a little oil. Once browned place off to the side. Combine your onions, garlic, diced tomatoes, and crushed tomatoes. *Sweat your onions down first, then add the garlic. Then your tomatoes.* Open your tomato sauces and spaghetti sauces (w...

It's Been Awhile...

 Hi! Do you remember me and this little blog? I've been thinking about starting this blog back up again, and I am just going to jump in with both feet and go for it! In the past what, 4 years since the last post, I have learned a lot, and have a lot to share! So if you'll bear with me, I'd love to share some fun tips and tricks and recipes with you here on this little space on the internet.  I will give you a little reintroduction of myself.  I'm Mandii. I'm a small town girl full of random information. Sports facts, check. Fashion tips, oh yeah, I've got those a plenty! Recipes? You're speaking my language. I love all things faith, family, fashion, sports, and food related. Which is exactly what you will find on this space. I love to travel even though I don't do it nearly enough.  I don't know if I am going to commit to a full 5 days on here yet. I'll play it by ear, and if you'll stick with me, I think we can do some great things here!  I...

YouTube-a-palooza

*Warning: this will be a long post, and picture heavy!*  :) Strictly based on the title alone I should have caught your attention! Sunday was the Alex Goot concert. It was at bar in Pittsburgh, and there were about 5 acts to the show!  You definitely got your money's worth! I went with my cousin, Allie (you can find her blog here! ) and it was just a fun girls night! The show was in a bar which used to be an old church, so it was very pretty inside. We got there around 6,  parked, and only had to stand in line for 10 minutes before we got to go inside. When we went in, we got our tickets scanned and  BAM , there was Landon Austin and Luke Conard at their merchandise table. So, because I somehow gained oodles of confidence*, Allie and I went over and I said "Hi Landon!"  He said "hi" back and asked me my name. I had a card for him so I handed it to him and he asked if he should open it now or later. I said that it was up to him. We moved on to Luke Conar...
