With the new year in full force, I am sure that I am not alone in setting goals for the new year! One of my goals for the month of January was to go gluten, dairy, and sugar free for this month. Day 3 – I already failed! We had one last family Christmas and pizza was the main course! It was gluten free, but still contained cheese…. and I LOVE cheese!! Anyway…. back to goals! I jumped right back on the health train even though I failed one day! You see, that’s life! Just because you fail one day, doesn’t mean you should give up entirely.
We first started using dōTERRA oils a few years ago! Since then, they have become a HUGE part of our family’s daily routine. I have seen a huge improvement in our health since incorporating these. I will be the first to say that I am certainly no expert! Here are a few ways that we use them:
I would say one of the most common comments and questions have to do with my closet! “How big is it?” “Where do you put everything?” “What are your organizational tricks?” Well, here it is, ladies – a peek into my closet. And yes, I am wearing my pajamas! I refused to take these soft things off my body this day!!! It’s Christmas break, and I am living the dream of being in comfortable clothes all day! I use these hangers to hold all of my clothes. I love them because they are velvet, so my clothes don’t slip off. They also take up half the space of a traditional plastic hanger. Here is another similar version that are less expensive.
I have had tons of questions lately about my hair! Honestly, my hair didn’t used to be something I received questions about! It was thin, stringy, and couldn’t hold a curl!
But then in August, reader, Amanda, reached out to me to try a new product – Monat! Amanda wanted to send me a full size shampoo and conditioner because she was just sure that I would love it! I will admit, I was skeptical at first, but I figured I had nothing to lose. I told her I would commit three months to using only the shampoo and conditioner. After the three months, I would get back to her with what I thought about the products.
Now that we all have these boots, I thought it was time to work on a few ways to style them! These boots have kept my feet incredibly warm during the snowy winter months in Indiana. For me, they are true to size, but if you are in between, I would suggest sizing up. They are a little tight feeling when you are first putting them on, but once they are on, they feel great! They are also a SNOW BOOT. So they are a heavier boot to be worn in the snow. I would not recommend using these to walk miles. But for a snow boot, they keep my feet warm, dry, and stylish!
I don’t know about you, but one of my resolutions every year is to go through my drawers and closet! I try to be super picky about what I keep and get rid things that have seen better days! One of the drawers in my room that needed desperate attention was my pajama drawer! This year, I decided to invest in some new pajamas! My old ones were looking pretty shabby! I searched several different stores to find some really great choices!!! Check them out below. All of them ran true to size for me. I am wearing a small in all of the pajamas. The great news is ALL of these pajamas are on sale! While night shirts are my first choice to sleep in, I also found come great top and pants pajamas too!
So…. let me start by saying, I am HORRIBLE at photographing food! But don’t let that scare you away from the deliciousness of this make-ahead dish!! Not only is the dish DELICIOUS, but it is also easy to make and can be made ahead – all wins in my book! I first made this 4 years ago when I hosted my sister and brothers for Christmas because my parents were in Hawaii for their 35th wedding anniversary! Everyone loved it! And every year for Christmas with my family, it is always a hit.
