April Birchbox

My April Birchbox came in the mail, and as soon as I saw it I opened it! I tell you, it is like Christmas every single month when that box comes! The theme was Rainy Day, and they gave you a card with a suggestion to do on the next rainy day!

This month was a pretty great month, here is what is inside!

Color Club|Gala's Gems Collection Nail Polish: I received the color Aquamarine Azulino, and it is a beautiful blue with a pearlized finish. This is going to be a great color on my toes!

Gilchrist & Soames|Spa Therapy Body Wash: I have not used this yet, but I absolutely LOVE the scent. I think that this is what a tropical paradise would smell like, fresh clean, and earthy. I imagine that I will be whisked away to the Caribbean when I use this body wash in my shower.

Paula's Choice|RESIST Anti-Aging Clear Skin Hydrator: This is said to hydrate and repair skin of blemish causing bacteria. I'm all for that! Plus it says it leaves skin matte premakeup. I'm loving what I am hearing! You know I'll do a review once I use this!

theBalm|How 'Bout Them Apples Lip and Cheek Tint: You all know I am a fan of theBalm, an
d this does not disappoint. The packaging is ridiculously cute. I mean who doesn't want to stare at a cute cowboy, and have all of the shades named after different things made with apples?! I received the color pie, and it is a mid-tone pink. I will use this both ways, on my lips and cheeks. When I use this on my cheeks, I will probably set it with a powder so it does not budge.

The Lifestyle Extra this month was from KIND snacks.  It was the Healthy Grains Bar, and I received the flavor Maple Pumpkin Seeds with Sea Salt. Oh my gosh, this was SO GOOD! I love salty, and sweet things, and this fit the bill to a T.

Overall, I really loved this box! What did you get in your box this month? Leave me a comment, I'd love to hear from you!

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...
