Better-Than-Takeout Baked Sweet Chinese Chicken

0

Who doesn’t love a good Chinese food take-out night? I have always loved attempting to make my own Chinese, Thai, and Oriental foods. I’ve attempted – as you can see attempted is the operative word – fried wontons, pad thai, lo mein, sesame chicken and lettuce wraps.  I succeeded maybe 2 out of 5 times. So last week as part of my daily routine, I was scouring Pinterest for new recipes and came across one for Sweet & Sour baked Chicken. I was intrigued. I have been craving it for some time and figured to test it out for dinner….

Makeup 101 with MAC

0

Lets face it, you are never too old for a makeup 101 session. As a pre-teen, I never knew how to apply make-up. I would steal my moms, watch her and try to copy. I looked like a hot mess! Random colors blended together, poking myself in the eye with the damn mascara wand and don’t even get me started on blush. Talk about clown face. I guess it was pretty evident had no coordination in the beauty department, so before I went into High School, as a Christmas gift,  my cousins gave me a gift certificate to MAC to…

The 3 Things I Learned In Vegas.

0

  I just recently returned from a weekend away in Vegas. Mainly the reason why I have been so MIA on here all week. For some reason I can’t seem to get back into the groove of things. Could it have been all the alcohol consumption? Possibly. Could it have been all the exerted energy playing slots and blackjack? Maybe. Could it have been the hot, Nevada sun? Sure, why not. I’ll never tell though, after all, what happens in Vegas stays there. But I will tell you this, while there I learned a few things that just have never…

Meatless Friday – Roasted Veggie Pasta

0

Normally I am strictly a pasta and marinara sauce kind of girl but decided to step out of my comfort zone and test out a new kind of pasta dish. I knew it would either be a hit or complete fail and was prepared for the latter. We have been on an “lets eat healthy” kick for our upcoming trip to Vegas (whooohooo!). Clearly we are trying some Jedi mind trick to make us feel better and justify the fact that we will be drinking heavily and eating like crap for 4 days. Whatever works, right? So I made a…
