I love collecting purses but really prefer a large bag that can carry my entire life!  I thought this was an adorable shoulder bag from Vera Bradley but never used it because I need something larger - so I have been using the Chanel.  I have put the VB up for sale on my Etsy site.


I have the urge to stitch which I have not seriously done in years... so sad because I love it and even had a store before my head went ballistic.  This dark frame looks great with the colors used to stitch this lovely sampler.

 Freezing weather is a great reason to bake - it is delicious & warms the house!
Blueberry Banana Bread 
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar 
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 1/4 cup mashed banana (1 banana)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 1/4 cups flour
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
  • 1 cup frozen blueberries
Bake at 350 deg- depending on the pan, may take up to an hour.  It will be very brown on top - use a toothpick to check the center - it should remove very clean.


My typical day.......  I know you migraineurs can relate.
Life with chronic migraine I spend more time in my pajamas and in bed than living a normal life

Do you combine fragrances for a unique scent?  I do many times and it is easy to do with these Nest fragrances.  These also go well with the Black Tulip scent.
 Aerin (estee lauder) and Jimmy Choo = spicy floral
Let me know what you use and what combinations you enjoy.

My regular shopping outfit - I only wear easy things when I have to try on clothes.  I try to stay with styles that I do not have to try on because I know the cut of the clothes will fit me and that way I can order on-line and do not have to go out ~ especially since we are supposed to get 'wintery mix' this weekend!
I soooo need a hair cut - my wonderful stylist retired and moved away - at this point I will go anywhere in NC for a great hair designer!!

Because I dropped my slow cooker I had to buy another one and I am pleased it is larger:
 An easy lunch - chicken, potatoes & green beans - I always use a liner for fast clean-up!
I use chicken stock and various seasonings like oregano, herbes de provence & bay leaves.  I leave it in for 5-6 hours and dinner is ready whenever I need it!

View from my kitchen window:
                                              Remember the animals during bad weather.

My most recent Ulta order: No7 Face & Neck multi-action serum. This is gentle for sensitive skin - I will buy this again.
The Kenra Shine Spray really gives a nice shine without weighing the hair down- just the right amount of hold. I always buy this when Kenra is on sale.  Buy 1 Get 1 50% off is a good deal.

Get ready for the awful weather!
