Birthday Trip Haul!

TJ-Maxx
Black T-shirt - Just needed some basics!
Baby Lips - Like I don't have enough of these already... But this is a new color! And it's Limited Edition!
The Body Shop Tea Tree Oil Skin Care Set - This set comes with toner, face wash, lotion, and pure tea tree oil.  It has great reviews, and I'd been wanting to try something like this for a while, so why not!
Paper Straws - Because sales...
Book with Ornament - This cute little picture book comes with an ornament that the child writes their name on, and then they press a button and it glows, so Santa can find them!  I thought I might give this a present, but then I decided it was cute and I wanted to keep it for when I have my own house and family one day (which I did a lot of during this trip...)
Dry Shampoo - This is my favorite, and I've been out for a while, and it's much cheaper here.

Hobby Lobby
Tiaras - I know this seems odd, but I needed them for the Christmas play I am in
Icing Tips - These were so cheap here, and they had so many options!  I limited myself to just two...

Kirklands
 "A" Ornament - I bought this kind of assuming I will end up marrying the guy I've been dating for two years now, considering his last name starts with an "A"... But I thought this was super pretty, and was only $5!

Vera Bradley
Vera Bradley was having a HUGE sale at the outlets! It was 50% off everything, with an extra 20% off your final purchase!
Card Holder - This is a double ID holder to hold your license and student ID.  I'd been wanting one for when I transfer to a four year school, and it was on sale!
Lanyard - I currently have a Chapel Hill lanyard, because I love the Tar Heels, but lately people have been asking me if I go there, and I hate saying no... So I now have a cutesy one instead!
Phone Case - My other case was looking kind of yucky, and though this one won't be as protective, its so cute!

Dollywood
Simply Southern Shirt - I am such a typical white (southern) girl... But these shirts are so cute!

Books-A-Million
The Great Gatsby Phone Case - I loved this book, and I was so excited to find this case on sale!
Peter Pan Socks - These were only $2, an are so freaking cute... I want leggings in this same full print!

Christmas Place
Cookie Ornament - This was on sale, and is also for my future house! I love the ornaments that look like food!

Paula Deen's Restaurant
Peach Cobbler Chapstick - Because I basically just wanted something from her restaurant... I bought Mom butter flavor!

Dollywood Resort (Pokeberry Lane)
Cup - Because I am totally obsessed with these cups!! And I had to have something from the Resort
3 post cards - I thought these were so pretty! This is what I had in mind when I bought them, and I am really happy with how it turned out!

Thistle Dew Me
This was a super cute store in Gatlinburg which had tons of these kitchen themed ornaments! I bought mom two, and two for me, but I wanted them all!
2 Ornaments - I chose this star cookie cutter (which I actually thought was a gingerbread man...), and a heart tiny pie pan!

Gatlinburg
Simply Southern Shirt - Well this one is a little different than my many others... it has long sleeves!  This was also the cheapest I had ever seen Simply Southern shirts, which was around $25-27
Sticky Notes - Because I have an unhealthy obsession...

Ipsy: June

My June Ipsy bag!   Probably my least favorite part of this bag... was the actual bag.  It's quite ugly, but the products are good for the most part! This Be a Bombshell lipgloss in Secret is ok… It’s a nice brand, so I’m not mad at it, it just isn't my favorite.  I put it on and it had almost a concealer like tint instead of the pretty pinky nude in the tube.  I have used it since and if used with a lighter hand, it's ok. I love this Formula X nail polish by Sephora in Wingwoman!  It is such a nice dark pink/red color, and it didn't chip!  Do you know how hard it is to find a nail polish that doest chip on me? This Three Tone "Bronzer" by Crown Brush is ridiculous... It looks like little kids play makeup.  It has a strip of bronze, a strip of pink, and one of a "highlight," and as soon as I took it out of he box the packaging fell apart.  I didn't even bother trying it, I just listed it on a swap website. But t...

Apple Pie Cupcakes!

I recomend to read this recipe all the way through before beginning to bake. I multi-task, but you need to find the order that works the best for you!  I will explain how I assemble and decorate them at the end! Cinnamon Cupcakes Ingredients: 1 cup milk 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, room temperature 2 cups all purpose flour 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon 1/4 teaspoon salt 4 large eggs 1 3/4 cups sugar 1 teaspoon vanilla extract Directions: Preheat oven to 350°F. Line muffin tins with cupcake liners. Heat milk and butter in a small saucepan over medium heat until the butter melts. Remove from heat. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, cinnamon and salt. Using a  mixer with a whisk attachment, beat the eggs and sugar until thick ribbons form (about 5 minutes).  Add the flour mixture and beat on low just until incorporated. Don't over mix!  Add milk mixture and va...

Book of the Month: January

Have you all ever heard of Book of the Month Club?  It is a subscription box unlike any other one I've seen!  Instead of makeup, food, or home goods like most boxes, you get to pick a book to have sent to you every month!  It is the perfect thing for bookworms like me! This subscription is only $16.99 per month, and you can choose to skip a month at any time if the five options they are offering do not appeal to you.  But here is the catch, today is the last day of their Galentine's sale they are offering through the blog My Subscription Addiction (love that place!).  So if you use the code MSABOOKLOVER you can get a three month subscription for only $29.97 (normally $44.97) along with a Book of the Moth tote bag and free credit for an extra book ($9.99 value)!  So you are getting four books for only about $30, which is less than you could get them in a bookstore, and are saving $25 over what you would pay for a normal subscription!  I highly ...
