August Birchbox

So my Birchbox arrived, and I didn't even get the tracking info for it. It just showed up! This month was a great month, and I am loving what I received! Here is what was in my box!!


amika-Perk Up Dry Shampoo: I love me some dry shampoo! I also love the smell of amika products, so I have a feeling I will like this!

Laura Mercier-Tone Perfecting Eye Gel Creme: This cream looks really nice, and from what I swatched, it will absorb really well!

ModelCo-Shimmer Bronzer: The shimmer in this is really fine, so I don't expect it to come across as glitter or make my face look super shiny.

Supergoop!-Forever Young Hand Cream with SPF 40: Your hands are said to show the first signs of aging, and that you should apply sunscreen to them. I don't apply sunscreen there, but I think I am going to start!

The lifestyle extra this month is breath spray from Hello. I received the flavor pink grapefruit mint, and it is not too overpowering. This breath spray is alcohol free.

This was a great box and I will definitely use what I got!

Do you love Birchbox as much as I do? I'd love to know what was in your box! Leave me a comment and let me know!


Stick around tomorrow and Thursday for all of the wedding weekend recaps!!

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...

Vegetable Lasagna Recipe

I made this lasagna recipe, and I think my grandma declared it the best thing she's ever eaten. She kept going back to the dish, and cutting off a small slice. Each time she would say, "This is so good!" So, if only she liked it, my day was made. However, every member of my family loved this dish, and I know you will too! It is a perfect way to use up Summer vegetables, and enjoy a delicious meal! My comments are in italics!
