Things I love....I recently stumbled upon e.l.f. makeup at Target. Prices starting at $1 they have some great stuff. I tried the stick blush, a lipstick and a foundation brush. Wonderful! I love this company. They have so many options to try. They also have a $3 and $5 lines of products. I just recently got the $1 concealer, which worked great under my eyes and smelled nice too.
Suave Professionals sleek conditioner. Wow. At $1.78, I like this more than the $6 Loreal Sleek I was using. I wouldn't even have considered trying it, but at my last haircut, I was told this is better than most things out there, even Matrix. The lady at Hair Cuttery said they did a recent study/test on shampoos and conditioners. Pantene (which I was also using) and Head and Shoulders scored the lowest. She said that there was floor polish in H & S and Pantene was the worst for leaving a residue on your scalp and hair. What? I'm not saying that I'm not still going to use it, however I did come out on top money wise as Suave Professionals exceeded my expectations. I'm a believer.
If you have a favorite product, please share! Word of mouth is the best.

Made-over leftovers Lipton Broccoli Rice
Spinach Portabella Mushroom Rice |
Leftover Cheddar Broccoli Rice
Fresh Spinach
Sliced Fresh Portabella
Leftover Beans
Shredded Cheese
I put this in a pan with a tiny bit of butter and olive oil, and sauteed it for about 5 minutes. Turned out really tasty and,who knew, healthy too.
Another project Andrew recently completed was a Walnut card table. He designed it with the parameters of his client. It turned out beautiful. I didn't even know I wanted a wooden card table until now.
