Week 12 - Coco Mademoiselle Chanel
Hi friends and welcome to Makeup Monday Week 12. I was blessed this past Christmas with another wonderful gift from my lovely teenage daughter. Each holiday she picks out a new perfume and she chose this one for me. I love this scent and it's a winner. It's so popular right now and the scent is bold but not overpowering.
I would suggest the next time you are in a department store or a store like Sephora to try it on and see if you like it. The size bottle that I have is .50mil. and it's about $68.00 depending on where you buy it.

This would make a great Mother's Day or birthday present too!
Do you have a favorite perfume that you like and what is it? Thanks for stopping by everyone and see you next week.
Thanks everyone and Enjoy!

Hi friends, I'd like to share with you this recipe for Chicken and Mushrooms that I make all the time for my family.
I usually make this dish during the week and the recipe is quick and simple and goes great with rice.
Chicken with Mushrooms Recipe
Ingredients:
2 packages of thin chicken cutlets cut in half
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 - 8oz. can tomato sauce
2 - 4oz. cans of mushrooms
1 tablespoon olive oil to coat pan
salt and pepper to taste
Directions:
Coat a large frying pan with olive oil and minced garlic. Saute the garlic in the pan for a few minute until the garlic is lightly browned. Add chicken cutlets and season with salt and pepper to taste. Saute the chicken on each side until the pink is gone. Add mushrooms and tomato sauce to the pan and sauté for about 20 minutes. Done. Enjoy!
Wishing you all a nice weekend and I hope I have inspired you to try out this recipe. Let me know if you liked it.

Week 11 - Spring Nail Polish
Week 11 - Spring Nail Polish
Hello friends! Nothing says Spring to me like bright nail polish! Nail polish is so popular right now and it comes in such beautiful shades. I love nail polish and I have so many different colors and brands. These nail polishes are a small collection of my daughter's.
In the winter months I usually wear dark colors and not too light or bright, but when the spring and summer comes I like using brighter colors.
The first bottle of polish is from Butter London and the color is Trout Pout. This polish was bought in the Boots Drug Store in London when we were on vacation there over the summer and to see that post you can see it HERE. Great news on the Butter London Nail Lacquer you don't have to be in London to buy it! They now sell this polish and makeup in Macy's and to see the link click HERE. This is a splurge nail polish and it costs $15.00 if you want to treat yourself!
The next are from Essie and the colors from left to right are: Cute as a Button, Go Ginza, A Cut Above, and Bachelorette Bash. These polishes cost about $8.50.
The next are from Forever 21 and the colors are from left to right: Eggplant, Overcast, and Lavender and they were only $2.80 a bottle.
Do you like wearing nail polish and what is your favorite brand and color?
I hope you all enjoyed this post about nail polish and I look forward to seeing you all next Monday!
Thanks everyone and Enjoy!

Hi friends! Wednesday was the feast of St. Joseph and to celebrate many people eat the pastry called Zeppole. My father-in-law used to own a bakery in Williamsburg, Brooklyn and he would bake them all the time for this occasion. It's a tradition in my husbands family to eat them and this is the pastry that I shared with my daughter. The pastry is filled with yellow cream and it's so delicious that if you have never tried one you have too!
This morning I gave Bosco a walk near the water and here are some pictures that I would love to share with you.
Here is what this tree looks like now that it's the start of Spring and this is what the tree looked in the winter and incase you missed that post you can see it HERE.
I started crocheting granny squares for an afghan that I'm making for our annual crochet sale at our church that we have each fall. I have decided to crochet the squares together. I'm still working on the men's scarf that I have been knitting and incase you missed that post you can see it HERE.
