I'm BAAAAAA-CK!

 Y'all have probably forgotten my name by now.. :(
I've been such a terrible blogger ever since I got back from CA! It was just so hard getting back into the swing of things at work and then I took off the very next weekend to go visit a friend and my mind has just been everywhere but blogging. BUT I'm finally back and promise to not ever disappear like that ever again without a heads-up :)
Also, I noticed that some of my guest posts did not post like they were supposed to. They all posted, but on the wrong days. Annoying. Stupid computers.

Anyway, I took almost 1000 pictures in CA and in order to upload them to here and Facebook, I have to resize them. ALL. Hence, it will be a while before I recap the trip...but I promise that I will eventually do it!

But for today, I'm going to keep it simple and link up with the wonderful Michelle over at The Vintage Apple for..

 


No theme this week, just a jumble of all my favorite things!

Yosemite + Meet Kait [guest post]

Happy Friday, all you lovely ladies!!
 I'm not exactly sure what we're gonna be up to today, but I have a feeling we may be heading to Yosemite! And I. can't. wait. 

But for your entertainment today, I've asked my brother's sweet girlfriend/the sister I never had until now, Kait, from Designing Kait, to guest post for me! She is an awesome interior designer/fashionista/cook and I love her to pieces (and miss her dearly right now)...I know y'all will, too!!

The floor is yours, Kait!
Y'all enjoy! xo

Hey y'all! First, a big thanks to sweet Haley for the lovely intro! so... i must admit, i've had a bit of writers block over at my blog with a lot going on in my life right now. but, i just couldn't pass this little gig up!

it's a little late for a 4th of July themed recipe, but for most people the summertime is full of cookouts, pool parties, and lake/beach trips. while a host/hostess may tell you not to bring anything to contribute to the event you are attending, this is an easy sweet treat that will always please, but not out shine the hostess! 

oh so oreo, chocolatey pie!

first things first, the (very few) ingredients

1. oreo pie crust
2.fat free cool whip
3. 1-large box of sugar-free/fat-free chocolate pudding
4.milk
5.oreos


1-make pudding using instructions on box
(that's where the milk come in)
2-cover and place in fridge to let stand

3- while the pudding is doing it's thing in the fridge, place about six oreos in a bag and crunch them up. i prefer them in big chunks, but you do as you like!

4- after the pudding has thickened (30 minutes or so) fill the pie crust 2/3 full with chocolate pudding.

5- cover with a nice, thick layer of cool whip & sprinkle with the oreo crumbles



 in five EASY steps, and nearly no time you have a delectable dessert that is sure to delight!!

enjoy the rest of your sweet summer time everyone! and be sure to check out my blog, designing kait!

Hi Ladies! My name is Meghan and I blog over at More from Meg. I'm honored to be guest blogging for Haley today! In honor of 4th of July coming up - I wanted to put together some great accessory options in case you don't have an outfit prepared yet. Personally, I like to accessorize with red, white, & blue rather than wear an entire outfit - so here are some great options for you!
Here the breakdown of the items:

1. 2 sandal options - a super cute wedge or an adorable flat sandal!
2. American flag tote - I love this tote! Not only is it large, but you can't get more patriotic than that!
3. White Sunglasses with blue tint - adorable!
4. Red dangle earrings - so cute and very versatile!
5. American flag tank - love this!
6. Blue flower pin - perfect for a solid color tank or tee
7. Navy knot bracelet - very nautical 
8. Red floppy hat - great color and super cute!
9. White statement necklace - this can go with so many outfits
10. Checkered red scarf - love a good scarf!
11. Blue belt - a belt can transform any outfit
12. Peace sign earrings - how cute are these?

I always love to hear about other ways to accessorize an outfit, so I can't wait to hear from all of you! And don't forget to head over to my blog so we can get to know each other better!! Thanks Haley!!

Alright, now y'all have no excuse for not looking absolutely fabulous, yet still patriotic, for your Fourth of July festivities! ;)
Thanks again, Meg..you're the best!! 
Have a fab start to your week, y'all! xo
