Exfoliation is a necessary step to keep skin glowing, and making a homemade sugar scrub, it turns out, is easy- just mix the ingredients in a bowl, transfer to a jar, and … that’s it! Plus, homemade scrubs give you the power to customize the scents to your fancy and to make sure every ingredient is top quality.
This weekend, I'll be sipping with a view and with my best girl beside me (we love a dog-friendly rental!). We'll be posted by the lake in Deep Creek, Maryland, but here's a little wine inspiration for your weekend. This is also a nudge to soak up the warm days and crisp, cool nights of autumn, with a glass in hand.
I typically reserve this corner for wine, but let's talk life, weekends and Mango Jalapeño Margaritas, shall we? Here's what I'm watching, listening to, eating and reading, all while sipping these lime-salt-rimmed beverages. Cheers to the weekend, friends!
I'm 34 now. Why would I leave my dog, go out, and pay for margaritas, when I could sip from home and watch true crime shows?!? Allow me to introduce you to these Blackberry Jalapeño Margaritas. They're worth staying home for. (The 30's bring so much wisdom, friends. If you're in your 20s, just know it gets so much better, or at least, way more comfortable.) Cheers!
As much as I love picnic adventures with friends, the kind that extend long into the day, there's something refreshing and calming about slipping away for a picnic for one. It's nourishing for our bodies and mind, so on that note, here are some of my tips for taking yourself on a healthyish picnic for one.
Valentine's Day is on the horizon. Skip the heart-shaped chocolate boxes, skip the generic bouquets, avoid the lame cards, and make something yourself. Make this Valentine's Day a dark chocolate love fest with dark chocolate cakes and a homemade, spicy, dark sipping chocolate called Atole (ah-toe-lay).
Make your own frothy, healthy matcha lattes at home and energize while enjoying the health benefits of organic green tea. This post was sponsored by Healthyish Foods, but all opinions…
I like to think of homemade eggnog as winter's milkshake. It's richness naturally makes it a slow slipper, so it's hard to overdo it with this treat, but to kick up the indulgence factor (but teeter on the cusp of reasonable indulgences), try pairing your sips with a Healthyish cake for one.
