February 2014 Birchbox

It is time for my monthly Birchbox post. I'm not going to lie, this month was probably my least favorite month for Birchbox, ever. I did get a few products I am excited to try, but this month overall was just okay. Here is what I got in my box!

Ayres|Bar Soap in Patagonia- This is STRONG! So strong, I immediately took it out of my box and put it somewhere where I can't smell it anymore. I won't be using this.

Beauty Protector| Protect & Oil- Now this product, I am excited about! You know I love a hair oil! This "defends against UV rays, heat, and breakage." I like that I can protect my hair from the sun. This also smells divine!

Cynthia Rowley Beauty| Liquid Liner in Black- I am always willing to give liquid liner a try. This has a great point, and has a nice black line. Oh, and the packaging is just too cute! I am still practicing with my liquid liner, but I think this has great potential!

Juicy Couture| Couture La La Malibu- I have got a lot of fragrance samples in my Birchboxes through the years. Some of my favorites have been Harvey Prince and these ones from Juicy Couture. This fragrance just smells like Spring and Summer. It has a slight floral fragrance, and definitely not to over powering.

Lifestyle Extra: Ahmad Tea London- I have been on a tea kick lately. I have a cute little tea shop about 15 minutes away from my house, and I got some to try. I am excited about these ones because I do like all of these flavors. I got a mint, a lemon, and an English version.

So that is what was in my Birchbox! What did you get in your box? Did you like it? I'd love to hear from you, leave me a comment and let me know!

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 (we li

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&

New Schedule!

 I think to start off, I am going to be blogging on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday's. I think that is a good schedule to start with that won't be overwhelming, and you readers won't get bored.  So in my time off in the blog world, I worked at a clothing boutique and absolutely fell in love with it! I found that it is something that I am really passionate about. I have learned so many tips and tricks while working there that I can't wait to share with you! I mean we also have lived through a worldwide pandemic. Add that to the list of things you never thought you would type! Haha! I have continued to cook and bake, take short little trips here and there. I truly do lead a very boring life. Haha!  If there are any topics you'd like me to cover, just let me know and I will try to see if I can cover them!  Don't forget you can follow the Mandii's Muse Facebook page here ! You can also follow the blog's Instagram page too! Maybe one day I can go live and we ca
