It is shocking to me that August is half way over. I was lucky enough to be able to get together, a lot, this summer with family and good friends. We spent many beautiful nights at the beach. Don’t let the summer go by without hosting your own beach picnic. Here are some beautiful settings to get you motivated!
This is going to be a long post because I am going to share a lot of things with you. Mostly things that my family ordered this summer….I had family visit me for 4 weeks this summer, I had a high school graduation and 2 kids shopping for college. A freshman, in a dorm and a senior, in an off campus house. Needless to say we were constantly online ordering EVERYTHING…from cleaning products, to bug zappers to sheets!!! I texted tons of links to items that readers would ask me about when I saw them, so I decided to do one post with some of our favorite things from Summer of 2019!! ENJOY!!!!

After Wednesday’s post, when I wrote about adding a little bit of camo to your wardrobe, I received so many notes. Everyone was so excited with this concept. Most of the readers said that they always wanted something camo but were not sure how to wear it. They were afraid they looked like they were about to go hunting!!!!! Here are some of my favorite camo pieces that can easily transition into your existing wardrobe. Bon Weekend!!!!
My college senior is going back to school this weekend. I’m really not ready to say goodbye yet!! We are going to have a family send off dinner and I am going to make this awesome Crockpot cake for him. It looks so easy and delicious!!
- In a large bowl, combine cake mix and pudding mix. Whisk to combine. Add milk, eggs, sour cream, peanut butter, vanilla and salt and mix until smooth. Fold in peanut butter chips.
- Grease the bowl of Crock-Pot with nonstick cooking spray. Add batter to Crock-Pot and smooth top with spatula. Cook on low for 3 1/2 to 4 hours checking at 3 hours to make sure the edges aren’t burning. Cake can be kept on warm for up to 4 hours before serving. The finished cake should be set on the sides and still gooey in the center.
- Drizzle with peanut butter and garnish with Reese’s cups and Reese’s Pieces Serve.
One of my favorite purchases last year was a camouflage button up jacket with a bow brooch at the top. It is by Veronica Beard and I usually wore it with flared black pants and leopard flats (I love mixing the patterns!!!!!). I received a few messages lately asking me how to incorporate camo in an everyday wardrobe. Here are some of my favorite looks. On Friday, I am going to have a shopping guide for you so you can add some of your own camo pieces.
