Health

I think we all want to be healthy! It is more fun to be healthy though when you have foods that you can take anywhere and foods that taste great! Here a few delicious foods that can help you be healthy:

Dried Fruit
There are all kinds of dried fruit that taste delicious!
Apricots


Strawberries


Apples

Bananas

Grapes

Nuts are another healthy food:

Almonds

Cashews

Pistachios

And last but not least...water!
Water is one of the best things you can give your body! It helps you lose weight and keeps you hydrated.
Pure water is the best but flavored water is OK too.

You can take water bottles anywhere!
Water is very healthy for you

Vitamin water is a flavored water with healthy vitamins in it

Disney's Movie, Prom

Prom...the cheesiest, most unrealistic movie I have EVER watched. Although Prom is very cheesy and unrealistic, its really funny and cute. My friend and I watched while we were having a girls weekend and could not stop laughing! If you want to watch a corny chick flick, this is the way to go. Its rated PG so its a movie for everyone...except maybe 5 yr. olds. :) Its a really cute movie, if only prom and relationships actually worked out in life the way they do in the movie. ;)

Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry

OH! This book warmed my heart. I have always had a passion for ending human trafficking/slavery and so reading books like this one really speak to me. This book is a fairly quick read, maybe three-seven days depending on how fast you read and how much time you spend reading it.

This book, Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry, is about a girl and her family who live right after the Civil War. So, although they are no longer slaves, there is still a huge racism problem. This book made me laugh a couple of times but I cried through the majority of it. It is such a sad book but has an amazing plot and story. I would definitely recommend this book. You wont regret reading it.

Here is where you can read a little bit more about the book:

Here is where you can rent the book if you have a library account:

And here is where you can buy the book for cheap:
Amazon; Roll of Thunder, Hear My Cry

Meals Under 15 Minutes!

In these busy, crazy school days, we never have time to cook great meals, right? Well, these meals definitely aren't gourmet but they do taste delicious! They are meals under 15 minutes!!



Ramen Noodles...Who doesn't LOVE these!? Stick these in the microwave for about 5-6 minutes and WaLa! You have Ramen Noodles! If you want to add some protein, add some leftover chicken or beef or shrimp! Yumm!




Burritos and Chimichangas! Oh, the best! Stick these in the microwave for about 1min. 20 sec. and you have yourself a burrito or chimichanga!
Absolutely delicious! Add lettuce, tomatoes, taco sauce, cheese, and sour cream to make it even better!


Don't Forget Breakfast!! For the most important meal of the day you can make these delicious muffins! They come in all sorts of flavors but I like the blueberry and cream cheese the best! It probably takes about 5 min. of prep time but they cook in just 10-12 minutes! Enjoy!

So you know the pencil case sized bag that I got....and showed you all? Well, I love it so much I found their website!
 http://www.blueq.com/

Here are some of the other bags they sell:










Tenth Avenue North
I have heard their songs on the radio before and I found them yesterday on Youtube.
I love these two songs! Enjoy!!!



The first song is "Your are More". It talks about how we are more than our mistakes. Christ has died for us so that we dont have to live in sin anymore! I love what they did with the chalkboard in the background!

The second song is called "Love is Here". It has a similar message as the first one, talking about how well, love is here. Christ came to this earth so that we can be loved. And, its our job to show love.

Beth's Bake Shoppe

I die, once again.


OK, so, best place to eat, like ever. That's pretty much all I need to tell you but since your begging, I'll tell you more. ;)

Beth's Bake Shoppe is amazing! They serve meals like sandwiches, soups, salads, and wraps. They also happen to have, sweets. But not just any sweets...Beth's Bake Shoppe sweets. It is so good, Oh! 

For my meal I had the 'Italian Sub'. It is turkey, lettuce, tomato, and onion on pretzel bread. It came with kettle cooked potato chips. I also bought a couscous salad, probably the best part of the meal.  It was delicious, hhighly recommended! Afterwards I had a chocolate chip cookie and red velvet cookie. The red velvet cookie was two cookies with a whipped icing in the middle.

Well, that is my experience at Beth's Bake Shoppe and Tea Room. Here is their website:
BTW, there is also a really adorable gift shop that is part of the Tea Room. 

Hope you can go eat there sometime! :) Thanks for reading!!



Bag Lady Boutique!

So, I went to Bag Lady Boutique today while I was on an outing with Mom and my Aunt. We ate lunch at a delicious place also, but that post is soon to come :). 

Bag Lady Boutique is officially one of my favorite boutiques...EVER! They have the most adorable things in there including pens, notebooks, scarfs, clothes, purses, bags, candies, jewelry, and decor. Their prices are reasonable, for a boutique that is. I got a bag and my mom bought a shirt and a necklace. Here is my bag:



I die.

There were probably over 50 of these bags in all sizes and designs.  They had this size (about the size of a pencil case) they had a coin purse size and a larger one (about the size of two of these put together). They had different designs and words on all of them.

I would TOTALLY recommend going here sometime...here is there website:
Although I sadly must say that the website does not do the boutique justice, sadly.

Books, Books, Books!


Hey guys! I thought I should introduce you to these books, they are amazing. They are about four Amish daughters. These books are romance stories and I definately cried and laughed out loud reading these books.

Lifehouse's Everything Skit



This skit has changed my life. Whenever I am in doubt I remember who Christ is and what he did for me. Please watch this...

Books

These books will make you ignore everything else in your life until you are done reading them. Ya. They're that good.  These books are incredible. The story line is very hard to describe but you can read on the back of the book if you want to. There are two series that are the same story. The first four to read are The Dragons In Our Midst Series.  After you finish them, you can read "Oracles of Fire Series".  They are so good...you wont regret reading them. Promise.
These are the Dragons in our Midst books






These are the Oracles of Fire books. The 4th book is my favorite, but they are all amazing!

These books were written by Bryan Davis

Thanks for reading!

Mascara


I have not been wearing mascara for very long but this is what Im using now:



THE FALSIES


I have been very impressed with it as far as how it looks and how long it lasts. However, although it says it is waterproof I have not once gone swimming without it running. Its really too bad because other that little issue, I am very glad I use it. Would I recomend it? Yes, as long as you dont plan swimming or sleeping in it. ;)

Sushi

Sushi is my favorite food! There are all sorts of rolls....shrimp, steak, fish, avacado, and cream cheese are just some of the things that can be in sushi. And, hey! If you are a vegitarian...they have sushi for you too!

If you are new to sushi, a california roll is great to start with it contains shrimp, avacado, and cream cheese


However, if you want to try something new, go for the Jaurassic Park.
