(another) snow day

Wednesday, January 22, 2014
This weekend was a glorious three days and then we got bonus snow days yesterday and today! I spent most of yesterday pretending that it wasn't the middle of January.

I gave myself a little beach glow with this self tanner that I found on one of my faaavorite beauty blogs. First, Cara is absolutely gorgeous so I'd try anything she recommends. It comes out of the bottle almost black which is absolutely terrifying but leaves your face with a look that's a lot cuter than that of a vampire (my current state). I definitely need to work on my application - you have to move fast - but it's a keeper. I bought mine off of Amazon for only $11!


Feeling all aglow, I did a little online shopping... for spring clothes. Because nothing says snow day like ordering a white maxi dress. I haven't always been a big fan of online shopping because the hassle of things fitting and sending it back if it doesn't just seemed like a lot of work. But I've hit a super lucky streak recently and now I'm all in. All. In. Ian doesn't seem as thrilled about it as I am. I will say, I can see why it's a dangerous thing. All you do is throw stuff in your cart and somehow it feels like you're not spending real money even though unfortunately, you are. 

And then I think I had actually convinced myself that it wasn't in fact winter because I decided I had to try frozen hot chocolate. Which is amazingly delicious by the way. For sure I thought it would be like a chocolate milkshake or a frosty or anything chocolaty and frozen that I had before. But. it. wasn't. It was surprisingly good so do yourself a favor and pretend it's July and try one :) The recipe I used is below!



Frozen Hot Chocolate

6 ounces of milk
2 packets of hot chocolate mix
1 1/2 cups of ice
whipped cream
marshmallows

Throw the milk, mix and ice in a blender and... blend! So hard, right? Then add the marshmallows and whipped cream.

Happy Wednesday, y'all!
