RECIPE: Bacon Mac & Cheese

California hasn't had very many cold, rainy days this year, so when we do get one all I want to do is curl up on the couch, candles lit, a movie on, and a hearty comfort food on my plate. Macaroni and Cheese is my favorite comfort food by far. So I made it for the family but with a little twist. I added bacon! Normally my recipe doesn't call for bacon, but to celebrate a rare, rainy day I just went for it. This would be a great addition to your Thanksgiving spread this year too! (With or without the bacon)

RECIPE: Restaurant Style Quesadillas

Do you ever just crave a food and all you can think about is getting home to make it? Well that was me this week. I was craving a restaurant style quesadilla, but didn't want to go out to a restaurant. Quesadillas are pretty big in my family, they can be a whole meal. if you pack it full with veggies and protein. This is a quick and easy meal that will leave you full and satisfied. 

Let's get started!

I'm All Naked!

There is nothing more amazing than opening a brand new makeup palette and using it for the first time. Okay maybe that first cup of coffee in the morning is a close second. The Naked 2 Basics palette came out recently and I definitely needed to add it to my collection. Having used all 3 of the Naked palettes before there was one thing I was missing: an everyday look. Now don't get me wrong, Naked 1, 2, and 3 are great palettes, I would recommend them to anyone who needs a trusty eyeshadow, however I don't want to wear shimmery and glittery eyeshadows everyday. When I saw that Naked 2 Basics had 6 taupe-hued matte neutrals (with 5 brand new shades) I knew it was what I was looking for. 

After playing around with the palette for a week or two, I decided to try a whole eye look, just using this. The outcome was great and it has been a look I've been going back to for the days where I only have time for one palette. Let's get started! 

Candles, Candles, Candles!

Burning candles just makes me feel so happy. They make the room so warm, inviting, and smell amazing. I love buying fall scented candles because that means all of the pumpkin scents are coming out and if you know me, you know pumpkin anything is my absolute favorite smell. These aren't ALL pumpkin scents, but I can tell you that they will make whatever room you light them in smell like an autumn night. Grab your blanket and put on a movie cause you'll be super cozy. Let's get started!
