Life Lately

I figured I would let you know that I am still here!! Honestly, I have been really busy with subbing, and some of my weekends are full that I haven't had time to sit down and really plan my posts out. However, I am trying to improve upon that. I just wanted to share a few things that I have been up to lately! As always, thank you so much for reading, commenting, pinning, sharing etc my blog. I really appreciate it! (If you follow my Instagram account, these pictures will probably look familiar!)






I was tired of my "winter" hair, so I called my stylist and she fixed me right up! I'm a little blonder, and I LOVE it!!

A local restaurant has $5 burgers on Tuesday's. My new favorite has been the Greek burger. It has red onion, feta cheese, and spinach in a Greek dressing, served with fries. On this particular night, the restaurant played Uptown Funk twice. It was the perfect Tuesday.







In college basketball news, my beloved Dukies swept their arch rival UNC Tar Heels. I always pull this wallet out in the beginning of March (for March Madness) and hope to still be using it in the beginning of April! Once Duke loses, I usually go back to my regular leather wallet. On a semi-side note, if you would leave me loose at Duke's bookstore, bad things would happen. When I visited, I easily could have bought one of everything! (If only I were richer!)


This has been a short glimpse into my life lately. Be sure to follow my Instagram account (link above) and see what else I have been doing!

If you are on Instagram, I'd love to see what you have been up to! Leave me a comment with your username so I can check out your pictures!

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...

YouTube-a-palooza

*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...

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...
