Zero Weight Watchers PointsPlus

That’s right, Zero Weight Watchers PointsPlus and Zero Calories for ME!!! This is one of my Favorites, so refreshing :)

And this is a super easy smoothie to make-
and with just 2 ingredients:

    2-Bananas (Slice and Freeze, this will substitute for your ice, Genius)
    1-Can of Diet Cream Soda

*Place your frozen banana slices into your blender.
*Add half of the can of diet cream soda, then slowly pour in the rest.
-Depending on the size of your bananas, you might not need the entire can.
*Mix until smooth, drink, and Enjoy!

*Reminder Tip: FREEZE your bananas overnight or until frozen solid. The bananas will take the place of ice; and this way your Smoothie won’t have that ‘watered down’ taste towards the end, just yummy banana.
*Also, depending on the ripeness of the bananas you use, you may need to add some sweetener.

As with all of my low-calorie and zero-calorie drinks; In my Diet Plan I do not count the calories in fresh fruits and veggies- so this ones a Freebie for me!

Paint Palette

by in Homestead Stuff.

Inspired by Martha Stewart’s Paint Palette
(her color selections 1-13 can be mixed-and-matched in any way together and look great.)
Operation ‘Upstairs Big Wall’ will be going into effect probably Spring/Summer 2013. Now, I couldn’t find the exact color matches at our local Home Depot so we got as close as we could get, with the exception of the ‘Punch’ color, we wanted something a little more bold and a little less pastel. Our color choices, as seen above, are as follows:

    Citrus Blast (MS#7 close match): Top half of the Big Wall- shared long wall with living room and dining room.
    Boise Silver (MS#6 close match): The chair-rail will continue down the entire length of the wall.
    Deep Royal (MS#12 close match): Our small wall in the kitchen opposite the ‘Big Wall’ will be in this darker blue to offset all the bright.

Above is my most recent picture of My Savings while out shopping, today’s visit- Kohl’s. No, I’m not a a crazy coupon lady or a stockpile/hoarder, I just like getting the most bang for my buck.
By combining my Kohl’s Card, Kohl’s Cash, and some savvy and thorough checking in the Clearance rack after Christmas, what would have cost me $74- turned into ZERO! And Kohl’s wasn’t the only store were I received some awesome end of the year good-bye 2012 savings!

December 17th: Gift under the tree…

by in My Whatever's.

Just like everyone else, this is a busy time of year (as you can see I haven’t posted anything in about 2-weeks.) While getting Christmas in order here, my husband was quite sneaky and was the first one to place a wrapped present under the tree…

To my surprise this is what I found, too funny not to take a picture. And yes, that is permanent marker folks!

December 6th 2012: Sugar Scrubs

by in Health/Beauty, What's going on at the Shop.

It’s time for Sugar Scrubs!

Sometimes body gels and bathing soaps just aren’t enough to remove the excess oils and dead skin cells left behind after showering. S&L Scrubs contain sugar, which acts as an abrasive and paired with 1-or-more oils (almond, avocado, coconut, jojoba, olive, vegetable, or fruit oils) to thoroughly cleanse, exfoliate, and moisten your skin. We also add small amounts of our S&L Soaps (gentle, soft and sensitive) to help create a fragrant lather of exfoliating sugar scrubs which will leave your skin feeling refreshed while looking amazing.
