I've been inspired by the lovely Grace at Camp Patton to paint my nails more often and my color of choice is Bahama Mama. Its a nice warm plum hue that goes well with my olive skin and I just slap some on while I am watching a show after the kids have gone to bed.  Grace paints her nails once a week! I don't think I'll do it that often but I'm going to try to do it more frequently than I have.

Elizabeth Arden's Eight Hour Lip Cream - This stuff is the greatest cure all. Best for chapped lips, hands, cuticles, the sore spot under your nose when you have a cold and are blowing your nose too much, dry toe cuticles...is it me or does anyone else get super dry toe cuticles??  You can snag some at TJ Maxx if you're lucky enough to find it!

My Stork Sak diaper bag was a present from my pops for Christmas! I love that it has a ton of pockets and straps and can fit enough diapers and crap for 4 kids that constantly need something. I carry a small case of wipes, mini Lysol, Clorox wipes, toilet seat covers, diapers for 2 babies, a burp cloth, cell phone, wallet, pacifiers, crayons and paper, my Elizabeth Arden lip stuff, sunglasses, gum, extra blush (cause you never know when you need a facelift), my camera (Canon Powershot), Tylenol, and mini deodorant (my BO gets out of control in this heat - can't smell like Chinese Five Spice all the time. I don't know what it is about my biological make-up but it's super embarrassing).

Paper plates yo! Ryan has been working late nights these last couple of weeks and well I've been serving dinner on paper plates- he's not home so there's no reason to get fancy. It helps with the clean up time at night so I can plop my tired old bottom on the couch after a long day of chasing the littles. I do feel wasteful and I wish that we already found a house so I can start composting again. All that paper should go straight to the compost bin because the worms love it and it helps balance out their diet. If you don't have a compost bin you can tear them up in little pieces and throw them in your garden. Oh and make sure its paper - worms no like plastic.

So this kinda goes against my policy of eating super over processed foods with a ton of junk in it but I can't help it. They are tasty in a cardboard kinda way and I have yet to make my own. The recipe seems pretty straightforward and easy. I just need to do it and stop being lazy about it but until then - I will eat these. 

That's all folks. Hit up the Moxie Wife to find more fav's.
