Hey Ya’ll! ⁣
⁣
So many of you have asked what I cook and make that gets Luna to eat her veggies, and I hate to sound so cookie cutter, but the answer really is texture and color. KIDS.LIKE.VARIETY! ⁣
⁣
For Luna, the crunchier the⁣
better. So, raw veggies (if not cooked)⁣
are on her plate 80% of the time. She⁣
loves raw cucumbers, peppers, sugar snap peas, corn and pretty much anything that crunches! ⁣
⁣
Don’t let ‘em fool you when they turn their nose up at stuff, most of the time the food just wasn't seasoned well (no shade). Remember, they're people too, so they like all the flavorful foods we love. And, SPGO goes a looooooong way! ⁣
⁣
Here for dinner on her lovely art table (can’t you tell..? lol ) is Rogerwood Sausage, raw green peppers, blueberries, and⁣
golden kiwi (mild kiwi flavor) that I picked up from @TraderJoes. Now, although I don’t do all my shopping there, I have definitely made it a habit to check out their exotic fruit and veggie⁣
selections to bring home for the family to try. ⁣
It’s allll about exposure to flavor from birth with these youngins’. It’s simple… the more variety they try, the⁣
more variety they love. Make sense? ⁣
⁣ ⁣
It’s easy as parents to get stuck in the rut of only showing our kids what WE personally eat, but this week, I challenge you to⁣
cook something for your child (that’s right, cook…) that you wouldn’t normally eat, and let them try it for themselves. ⁣
No pretenses, no pre-judgements just mouth to glorious food! ⁣
⁣
And, don’t forget to add SPGO (Salt, Pepper, Garlic, Onion) if it’s a savory (not sweet) food. Kids LOOOOOVE flavor! Trust me.. they’ll be BEGGING for more! Love youuu!

#Hey Ya'll! Halloween is upon us, and although I don't really do the dress up thing lol I know many people do; so I wanted to⁣
offer a think piece and Beauty Professional hack whisper in your ear while you're crafting your #HalloweenMakeupLooks (see what I did there?) . ⁣
⁣
Though not my specialty by ANY stretch of the imagination.. I used to do alooooottttt of #HalloweenMakeup When I worked for @MACCosmetics for⁣
literally a decade. While trends always come and go, I will tell you that I ⁣
LOVE a deep purple or deeeeeep blood red lip vs. the traditional black gore(y)⁣
looks that we usually associate with Halloween. It's waaay more approachable (I⁣
know it's a scary time, but a girl still wants to look pretty, right?), and⁣
compliments literally every single skin tone there is. No joke, I’ve tried it!⁣
lol ⁣
⁣
If you want to try something different this year, and still want to keep it #Pretty, then trust your girl and try dark⁣
purple this year vs black, you'll be happy you did! ⁣
⁣
And remember, it’s all in fun and games, so don’t feel pressured to create a perfect canvas or look. This is the time to let your daily stresses go, and just relax and have fun with friends and family! Happy Creating! Love⁣
youuu! ⁣
⁣

It’ssssss fragrance tiiiimmmmeeee!! ⁣
⁣
Hey Ya’ll! Today’s fragrance ode au parfume is dedicated to @JoMaloneLondon's Poppy and Barley fragrance of the moment. Some of you⁣
may be saying, “Why Poppies and Barley?”, and I get it! Poppies don’t actually have a scent, and⁣
barley usually evokes memories of beer for people, but give it a chance. So pulling this one off may seem like a true⁣
feet to fellow fragrance noses, but stay with me ya’ll! It’s absolutely beautiful in all it’s Fruity and Floral glory. ⁣
⁣
Remember all fragrances have a top, middle, and base note in which the fragrances unfold to reveal new notes, and nuances with each layer. THIS is why fine fragrances are⁣
considered a luxury product. It requires⁣
just as much (or more) gentle and particular harvesting than that of skin care (Crazy right?). If you wanna learn more about fine fragrances and their 3 layers, click the link in my bio and read⁣
on! ⁣
⁣
But, back to the #JoMalonePoppyAndBarley- here are⁣
the accords and notes you need to know! ⁣
⁣
𝗠𝗔𝗜𝗡 𝗔𝗖𝗖𝗢𝗥𝗗𝗦- ⁣
(𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘴𝘮𝘦𝘭𝘭 𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘢𝘭𝘭)⁣
Powdery, fruity, woody, floral, musk⁣
⁣
𝗧𝗢𝗣 𝗡𝗢𝗧𝗘𝗦- ⁣
(𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘴𝘮𝘦𝘭𝘭 𝘪𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘣𝘦𝘨𝘪𝘯𝘯𝘪𝘯𝘨)⁣
Black Currant, Violet, Fig⁣
⁣
𝗠𝗜𝗗𝗗𝗟𝗘 𝗡𝗢𝗧𝗘𝗦- ⁣
(𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘴𝘮𝘦𝘭𝘭 𝘢𝘧𝘵𝘦𝘳 2 𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘳𝘴) ⁣
Poppy, Powder, Wheat (non-allergy)⁣
⁣
𝗕𝗔𝗦𝗘 𝗡𝗢𝗧𝗘𝗦- ⁣
(𝘩𝘰𝘸 𝘧𝘳𝘢𝘨𝘳𝘢𝘯𝘤𝘦 𝘴𝘦𝘵𝘵𝘭𝘦𝘴 𝘢𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘦𝘯𝘥 𝘰𝘧⁣
𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘥𝘢𝘺/𝘯𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵)⁣
White Musk, Bran, Barley (non-allergy)⁣
⁣
Poppy is the flower and symbol of sleep, resurrection and remembrance,⁣
and in order to convey it’s red color into a fragrance, perfumers used red⁣
rose, green leaves and spicy carnation. ⁣
⁣
Black currant has a tangy, fruity, and almost minty character that tops it off perfectly! Then comes layers of grain and⁣
green barley. ⁣
⁣
This fragrance is apart of a limited-edition collection with the British fragrance house, and leaves a nostalgic impression of English fields swaying red poppies, green grass, and golden grain; creating a romantic aura that lasts for 6 hours or more.

Hey Ya'll! ⁣
⁣
So, one of the benefits of #LivingGlutenFree is⁣
that you lose weight without even thinking about it. For instance, I healthily lost 30 pounds since March from just that ALONE..crazy right?! ⁣
⁣
Raw sugar snap peas have always been my favorite snack. They're crunchy, sweet, mild, crispy and handy. Luna loves them raw too, and they're a perfect on-the-go snack for the kiddos or yourself, bc you can throw them in a baggie and they last all day non-refrigerated. ⁣
⁣
Moreover, sugar snap peas are so good for your internal health and external beauty. It's a win-win! Here are the deets: ⁣
⁣
𝗪𝗜𝗙𝗠𝘀 (𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁'𝘀 𝗜𝗻 𝗜𝘁 𝗙𝗼𝗿 𝗠𝗲?) ⁣
⁣
𝗩𝗶𝘁𝗮𝗺𝗶𝗻 𝗖- 100% of our Daily Value, decreases heart disease and improves blood pressure control. Plus, we allll know Vitamin C brightens the skin. ⁣
⁣
𝗩𝗶𝘁𝗮𝗺𝗶𝗻 𝗞 - Bone density and strength. Reduces⁣
inflammation, redness or swelling of the skin; supports skin's natural barrier⁣
function (ability to retain moisture and repair itself). May benefit ezcema. ⁣
⁣
𝗙𝗶𝗯𝗲𝗿- creates a, "full" feeling,⁣
healthy digestive and heart system, and may benefit blood sugar control.⁣
Detoxifies the skin. It's cool to see how true beauty starts with the food and⁣
beverages we consume, right? ⁣
⁣
⁣
Pick some up the next time you're in the⁣
grocery store, and let me know what you think if you're trying them raw for the first time! Love youuu!
