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 (w...

*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...
