Wish List Wednesday: A day at the Ballpark

I guess watching The Sandlot has left me wanting more baseball in my life because all of the things on my list today would be perfect for a day at the ballpark. 

I love this Baseball T by Judith March. As far as I can tell it's totally sold out :( 

I would put it with these shorts that I have from The Gap. I love them! You can find them here.


 I think it would look so cute with these shoes which can be found here.

Indoor S'mores Tasty Tuesday

I watched the movie The Sandlot the other day. One of my favorite scenes is the s'more scene. 




It seems like every time I make a s'more, someone quotes this movie. This scene inspired this weeks Tasty Tuesday. It has been too cold to be outside much lately, so we made Indoor S'mores. 



Ingredients: 
3/4 cup light corn syrup 
3 tbs. margarine or butter
1 package milk chocolate chips
1 tsp vanilla
9 cups Golden Grahams cereal 
3 cups miniature marshmallows

1. Grease a 9" X 13" X 2" pan
2. Heat the corn syrup, butter and chocolate until boiling, stirring constantly. Remove from the heat and stir in vanilla.
3. Pour over cereal and 3 cups of marshmallows in a large bowl. Toss until coated. Press in pan with the back of a spoon or spatula (I would spray with nonstick spray) 
4. Sprinkle marshmallows on the top and occasionally press some into the mixture. 
5. Let stand for 1 hour
6. cut into squares and enjoy. 
* Store loosely covered at room temp. We suggest covering them with wax paper. They are good for about two days after, so eat em quick. We never have a problem with that however. :)

Best Sunless Tanner Ever!

Hey lovelies! We are so excited to be back after a short break. :) I absolutely love this time of year as the weather starts to warm up a little bit.  I'm also super pasty white from the long winter months. I refuse to use tanning beds so I'm also on the look out for good self tanners.  I've hit the jack pot with this one!

I will admit I was very hesitant to purchase this one because I've tried so many kinds and haven't found one I've loved but figured I couldn't go wrong with the price.  



When I first used this it made me super nervous because the mousse was really dark. I found that it is super easy to apply and blends really well. I recommend using a tanning mitt to apply the mousse but it isn't totally necessary if you don't have one. Overall I am beyond pleased with this product and will definitely be replacing my old sunless tanners with this.

Because the it was such a good deal I also picked this up as well. It's perfect to use on the in between days for extra shimmer.


Pros:

-Very easy to apply. You don't have to rub it in as much as you do a lotion because it dries very quickly.
-Reasonably priced plus if you have a local Sally's you don't have to pay for shipping
-Gives a natural bronzed look
-Doesn't streak

Cons:
- It doesn't seem to last quite as long as other self tanners but this doesn't bother me as much because of how easy it is to apply again.
