Blogmas Day 7: Holiday Baking!

I don't know about you but the smell of baked goods is everything! The way I said that in my head sounded a lot better, almost as if I was in a commercial. I love the holidays because it gives everyone an excuse to eat! Over the past few years I have taken an interest in baking, it really is soothing. My favorite dessert to make is White Chocolate Blondies! These are so delicious and very easy to make. When making recipes created by other people on the internet, I only go to one person. I'm pretty sure you've heard of Laura Vitale, right? Well this is her recipe and you can never go wrong with that. If by chance you're not familiar with her, just know I am very disappointed! But I will give you a quick summary of who she is.

Laura Vitale is the host of the YouTube channel "Laura In The Kitchen" , which is very popular and she has a show called "Simply Laura" on the cooking channel! I've been watching her since the beginning and her recipes are awesome. So a few days ago I made her White Chocolate Blondies recipe. I've made it a few times before, but this one seems to be my favorite! It's perfect for the holidays, although you can make it at anytime. It's simple, but delicious and you won't be disappointed.

Her passion for food is inspiring and has helped me enjoy cooking with my mom and sister! I've created my own recipes and I've made dishes inspired by her recipes. On her YouTube channel she has recipes for days. Especially ones for the holidays, so if you're stuck and have no clue what to make and it's at the last minute, watch her videos. She has a variety of deserts and recipes specifically for the holidays. If you want to check out her other variations of the blondie recipe, check out the direct links to her website below!

Finding My Passion For Blogging Again

At some point in time, when your heart isn’t into something you should take a break. Blogging is great and I couldn’t see myself without it. However sometimes it can get overwhelming and that’s what happened to me this year. For about eight months I have not blogged and I thought I was a bad person for that. I have realized that it was best to take the long break. In doing so, I have found so many things I love to talk about. I was holding myself back because I put a label on myself, wanting to be known as a beauty blogger. Sure I attached the lifestyle part, but honestly I don’t really know what that means. During this year I had time to reflect on where I wanted my blog to go and whether I even wanted to write anymore. Honestly the motivation to blog was not there at all and at that time, I really didn’t care if I continued. I did not want to look at my blog or deal with it. For me I was tired of putting in the work and not getting anything in return. Meaning no one was r

E.l.f. Eye Brushes

Although this haul is very small, I just wanted to share with you what I brought. I decided to buy brushes, because I needed them more! The first brushes I were eco-friendly and were really good, but their were more face brushes, then eye brushes. So that wasn't really helpful to me. It was only one eye shadow brush. I rarely shop online, I always go to the store. But I was bored one day and I guess this is what happened! I am really excited to try these brushes! I also brought some things from BH cosmetics, but that's for another post! Eye Shadow Brush The eye shadow brush is supposed to help apply the eye shadow evenly and make it easier. This sounds good, because the brushes I used in the past were tough and hard. It seemed like I had to put a lot of eye shadow on, before it actually showed up on my eyes. Blending Eye Brush This brush is supposed to blend the eye shadows, while softening dramatic edges and lines. This is really good, because before I ha
