Hair, Hair, Everywhere!

Last winter I decided to do this to my hair...

So I brought this pic to my hairdresser...these are some pics. It had faded by the time I took a few.

 (sorry for the dead look on my face!)

That Pumpkiny Time of Year

its fall...that pumpkiny time of year! i thought i'd share a recipe that has become one of my favorites. pumpkin muffins. so EASY and so DELISH. and yeeeesss, that is a half eaten muffin you see back there!

Pumpkin Muffins
1 box of yellow cake mix
1 can (15 oz., I believe) of pumpkin
1 tsp of cinnamon
1/8 tsp of ground cloves
1/8 tsp nutmeg
(i probably almost double the spices. i like mine spicey but use the recipe as a starting point. i do it to taste.)

throw it all in a bowl. mix well. spray baking spray on your muffin tins. put batter in tins (i like BIG muffins, so it makes about 6 muffins for me. probably 10-12 for normal people.) bake @350 for 20-25 min. i test mine with a metal wirey thing that i got from pampered chef to make sure they're cooked thru.

enjoy!

The beginning....

Thanks for stopping by! Welcome to my blog...glad you decided to take a look. I'm looking for a way to document the outfits I wear and how many ways to wear what's in my closet. I don't have much in the way of high end clothing..its all done on a working girl's budget :)  And if, in the meantime, I manage to inspire an outfit for you...I'd love to know about it! (That being said, please excuse the not-so-high quality photos.)

This should be interesting...I'd love for you to join me for the ride!
