Taste for Tuesday: Pepper Chicken

What's cooking? Pepper Chicken! This super easy meal can be prepared in about 35 minutes tops! Well, after preparing the meat and veggies. Originally, I was inspired by Campbell's Pepper Steak recipe on the back of the beef gravy can, but I did a little modifying! Give this quick and healthy recipe a try:

Saturday Swipe: Express Purchases

My credit card has been taking some hard swipes in-stores AND online lately. To justify, I've been coming across some AWESOME deals that can't be passed up! Today's deals? EXPRESS! This weekend only, get $50 off your $100 purchase OR $75 off your $175 purchase! You heard that right, it's basically getting HALF OFF your purchase. Of course, I had to get something. And on top of this promotion, the items I purchased were 40% off. Can't get better than that, can you? In 5-7 business days, these three items will be officially added to my wardrobe:

Friday Favorites: bareMinerals

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. This week, let's switch it up to Friday Favorites! I bring to you bareMinerals. I purchased the bareMinerals "Try. Believe. Love." kit from Ulta a few weeks ago during the Beauty Steals for $10 instead of $20. This was perfect because I've always wanted to give these products a try but strayed away because I wasn't sure if I'd get the bang for my buck. So I found this trial kit to be the perfect way to test it out. So this is what I got...

Thought for Thursday: The Way I See It

In honor of Throwback Thursday and the first day of Starbucks' Frappuccino Happy Hour, I'm bringing back a favorite quote that I once found on my very own cup...

Years and years ago, I purchased a Caramel Macchiato from Starbucks. Not only did I enjoy the delectable warm content inside of the cup, I indulged in the wise words on the outside of the cup. Believe it or not, it actually helped me through the times of doubt. And to this day, I still have that exact cup sitting on a shelf in my room! It reminds me that even when people do not invest their time into you, it doesn't mean you shouldn't invest your time into yourself. Because in the end, you are worth it.

Wear it Wednesday: Two-Piece Flats

Please welcome the newest addition to my wardrobe: Apt. 9 Cutout Two-Piece Flats in Bone! Let me tell you, I have been looking EVERYWHERE for the perfect pair of pointed-toe two-piece flats. I found one online at Target that I really liked but, of course, they weren't available online or in stores. Moving on... I checked Nordstrom, Steve Madden, DSW, etc. and still couldn't find a pair to my liking. Thankfully, my friend Erin suggested that I check out Kohl's, and I am glad that I did! I was debating between the pair by Apt. 9 and Vera by Vera Wang. 

Taste for Tuesday: Turkey Enchiladas

Who's in the mood for tacos this Tuesday? Well these Turkey Enchiladas are pretty darn close! I promise you, these will become a favorite in no time. There are two key ingredients that will make these enchiladas stand out from the others, and they are: hard se and cream cheese. Okay, now let's get to it!

My baking dish was too small, causing the individual enchiladas to want to all become one. Haha. Plus, I loaded those bad boys up really good!

Make it Monday: T-shirt to Tank

Off the top of your head, can you tell me how many T-shirts are in your possession? Whether they've accumulated from high school, college, or random events you've participated in, I think it's safe to say that we all have quite the collection! Now, if you were to look in my closet, you would find a hefty stash of T-shirts from all sorts of occasions. And if you were to ask me how many of them I actually wear, I would probably say about 5!

Today's DIY features the “too big for you” T-shirt. If you have any T-shirts that you are swimming in and not putting to any use but collecting dust in the back of your closet, this post can help you out! I originally found this idea on Buzzfeed, so I decided it was about time that I gave it a try! So, I pulled out this old MSU T-shirt that was, of course, WAY too big on me! And in about 5 minutes, it transformed from a T-shirt into a tank!
