Heat Wave

I feel like it is finally Summer! All of this rain we have been having has dissipated and the temps are in the 90's and humid. Just a few reminders to beat the heat and stay cool!

Make sure you keep yourself hydrated! Drink water, and plenty of it! It not only cools, you down but keeps you fresh.

Stay out of the sun if you can.

Blue Skies!
Make sure you wear sunscreen, and a hat to keep the sun off of your face.

If you have a pool, use it! (Don't forget the sunscreen!)

If you want a nice icy treat, soak a bandanna in water, and pop it in the freezer. Then unroll it and place it around your neck. It will keep you cool.

Check your local news for cooling centers if you don't have air conditioning.

Bring your pets inside for them to stay cool! Pop some ice cubes in their water so they have a cool drink too!

A lot of these tips are common sense, but I thought I would share with you just as a reminder!

Stay cool!

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...

High Five for Friday

I've done it again. #badblogger I can't wait until school is out and I have free time to write, photograph, and post my blogs! As usual, I am linking up with Lauren ! Here are my thoughts about the week! 1. It's Friday, and for that I am very grateful! 2. I am getting my hair cut tomorrow! I'm keeping my length, but I might add a few extra layers to give me more volume! I can't wait! My hair has been especially knotty when I get out of the shower. 3. I ordered new contacts and glasses from Wal-Mart Vision Center. I've had really good luck with them! 4. Did any of you catch the premier of The Night Shift on Tuesday? I think this will be a good replacement for me until Chicago Fire comes back on! 5. I am very much looking forward to sleeping in! What did you love about the week? Leave me a comment and let me know! I'd love to hear from you!
