Grow Hair, Grow!

I'm really feeling Nicole Richie's hair. It will probably take me at least a year to get it that long, but whatever!
I think Nicole has always had a great sense of style. She's looking the best she has ever looked. It must be that "Mommy Glow".

Coconut Tres Leches Deliciousness

So, I baked a Coconut Tres Leches cake for my boss' birthday and it was pretty much a huge hit at the office. The best part of it all is that it was super easy! Here is the recipe...


1 package of Yellow Cake Mix

1 (14oz) can condensed milk

1 (15oz) can Coco Lopez Cream of Coconut

1 2/3 cup sweetened flaked coconut

1 tub Cool Whip

Maraschino cherries (optional)

Prepare cake mix according to the instructions for a 13 x 9 inch cake. While still warm poke small holes all over the cake using a bamboo skewer or small kitchen knife. Top with the condensed milk. Mix cream of coconut in a separate bowl to smooth any lumps. Top cake will cream of coconut. Ice cake with Cool Whip. Sprinkle the coconut and top with a cherry.

You can thank me later. ; )

Cellphones Save Lives

I am sure you are very well aware of all the destruction that has recently occurred in Haiti. Those poor people got hit with another 6.5 earthquake this morning.

I believe it is our duty as fellow human beings to give back in some way, shape or form. One of the easiest ways to do this is by texting "Haiti" to 90999. When you do this a $10 donation will be added to your phone bill.

Here Goes Nothing...

Well, here goes nothing!
I have always been interested in starting a blog, but I just never got around to it. I figured why not start at the beginning of a new decade!? Personally for me, 2010 is the year to BE about it and not just TALK about it.
I have a love of all things. Whether it's food, fashion, entertaining, crafting, decor, art, music, etc! This blog will be used as an outlet to express the sides of my personality that don't get to shine as often as I would like due to the distractions of everyday life.
I hope you enjoy and get inspired.
