About Me

My photo
Rural, GA, United States
I'm an army wife, working mom of 2 kids.! My husband Tim is a Soldier In the army. I work for MWR for the Community Recreation Division as an admin assistant...I absolutely LOVE my job I couldn't have found anything better! My daughter, Kennedie, was born in January of 04 and our son, Cale, was born June of 09. Kennedie is VERY involved in dancing, she is in her 11th season (2019-2020) of being a competitive dancer. It's exhausting but we LOVE it. Cale is starting to REALLY get into sports. He is on a year round wrestling team, and he plays baseball in the spring! This blog started out as a recipe sharing venture but now it's going to turn into a more "granola" way to live. Cheap recipes more homemade recipes and re-purposing things. I'm a crafter at heart so I'm going to throw some of that in there too! On Valentines Day of 2017 we bought our first Travel Trailer. I'll be documenting our travels also on this blog!

Nadine West - Box 8

 Got another great box.
  These leggings are a great basic piece.  Keep $21.99
 I was on the fence with this shirt, my daughter wasn't particularly crazy about it.  The colors are nice together (coral and navy), I tried it on and still wasn't in love so it went back.  Return $26.99
 Love this shirt! I love flowers!!  I kept this $22.49
I don't have a picture of me in the dress by myself but this great grey dress is SUPER soft and stretchy.  I kept it $29.99

Nadine West - Box 5


Ya'll - my 5th box was AWESOME!!  I got 5 items, again I didn't get jewelry (WOOHOO!).  I'm sending back one thing.  What I love about Nadine West is that unlike Stitch Fix I don't feel like I have to keep all the items because of the discount.  I can actually make decisions about what is going to stay in my closet.

This shirt is soft, and best yet, it's in our dance studios colors!! WIN.  Keep - $27.99

THESE LEGGINGS!!!! I took these right out of the bag and put them on, didn't even go to the bedroom, right in the kitchen!!!  They are so soft, and I don't feel like I'm going to tear up the mesh when I pull them on!  I got tons of compliments on them at wrestling. KEEP - $27.99



These shorts, they are a cute idea but I'm not a fan of shorts that are short and baggy because the minute you bend down everyone sees EVERYTHING the shorts are meant to hide.  We didn't even try these on. Send Back - $17.19
I was on the fence about this dress.  It's not a flowy summer dress, it's thicker material.  Then I realized DUH it's meant to be a fall/spring dress.  I can pair it with leggings and a cute cardigan/jean jacket and I'm stylin!  Best yet IT HAS POCKETS! Keep - $28.49
I like the style of this shirt, it's currently tight around my midsection but I'm smack in the middle of loosing the 10 lbs. I have gained since my 22 lb. loss.  So I'm going to keep it.  If I don't look good when I'm done, Kennedie will rock it.  Keep - $24.49



To see my previous boxes:

 
I can't WAIT for my 6th box.  These are great and they are budget friendly so that means that I can get one once a month, in the end this box will cost me $94.18.  I took a survey and they gave me a $5 coupon so with that minus the shipping fee and shorts I think it's a awesome deal for 4 things!!!!

homemade disinfection wipes

I used 2 xlarge t-shirts that had a design on the upper front part of the shirt - so I was able to use the whole back of the shirt and the bottom half of the front.  I got about 10-12 cloths out of each shirt depending on how I cut it.  Because I got a new serger 3 weeks ago I know serge EVERYTHING that I can. I serged the edges so they wouldn't unravel over time.

Here is all the ingredients I used to create the wipes.

1 1/2 cups HOT water
1/4 cup vinegar
few drops of dish soap
few drops of essential oil or in my case candle scent.
 I stuffed mine into the bucket so they would be easy to get out when I needed one. (this is my first set i realized after I mixed everything I had excess solution and needed that other shirt)
 Pour in your hot water and vinegar....
 add your few drops each of oil and dish soap
 SHAKE IT UP!!!!!
 And it's ready for use!
