Bath & Body Works New Scents...

I know some of us get excited when B&BW drop their new collections, I know I do! 

Before you get excited check the labels and compare keynotes with other scents in the store, who wants to buy the same scent just in a different package?! Well all know that B&BW do that a lot. Let's hope the new scents are really new scents.

Some stores in your area may have them out and some are dropping 12/8/16..

Here is a list of scents that are due to come out.

So far Cocktail Dress and Pink Confetti are my faves.

Prepping For Thanksgiving Dinner & Recipe

We all know that doing last minute Thanksgiving shopping is a no no, by now you should have at least half of your ingredients. 

As for myself...I like to get started early. I look for the best deals and I make my grocery list of everything that I need. In my household Mac n Cheese is more important than the turkey..I kid you not! So this year my list is simple.

My List:
6 bags of shredded sharp cheese
4 boxes of elbow macaroni
Pot Roast
Chicken Thighs & Legs
Yams (sweet potato pie)
Collard Greens

That's just to get started...I already have my seasonings, so I'm good in that department. 

What's On Your List? 

My Bangin' Mac n Cheese Recipe

Elbow Macaroni

Shredded & Block Cheese

Margarine

Milk

Cook macaroni until it's half done..

Get a sauce pan and add your milk, when the milk starts to get hot add all of your cheese and margarine and stir until all the cheese is melted and it's creamy.

Take your macaroni and add it to your baking pan, pour the cheese over the macaroni..stir it up, (you can also add more cheese with the macaroni to make it cheesier) cover the pan and put it in the oven for 45 minutes (covered)...another 15 uncovered. The top should have a nice brown layer, take it out and enjoy!

I know this was a super fast recipe run through but I will post a video on my channel.

I wish you all a wonderful and safe Thanksgiving!

Creamy Dreamy Mac & Cheese (Crock Pot Edition)

As kids we all grew up on macaroni & cheese...it didn't matter if it was boxed or mama's homemade mac & cheese, that's a dish all kids like..oh wait now..adults too!

I use to love the way my granny and mom made mac & cheese...it was cheesy and flavorful..just heavnly goodness! As I became an adult and started cooking..Mac & Cheese as a dish I had to make for holidays and birthdays...yes you read it right birthdays. It got to the point where I didn't want to make it anymore because I was tired of looking a it! Now that the weather is cooling down again, I thought of a new way to take my mac & cheese to the next level!

It's simple and crockpot friendly!

(You can tweek these ingredients to make it your own)

1 box of Macaroni
1lb of sharp cheese
1lb of mild cheese
1 bag of shredded cheese (sharp and mozarella)
1 can of cream of chicken (optional)
2 medium slices of margarine

Boil your macaroni with the magarine for 3 mins (Aldente), drain your macaroni and rinse in cold water..(this stops the cooking process)
Make sure all your block cheese are cut into medium squares or your preference.
Add the macaroni in the crockpot, cream of chicken,block cheese and stir and the last the step is add the shredded cheese on top.
Cover the crockpot and set on high for 2 hours and medium for another hour.

Enjoy!

Pinterest Inspired Meal: Drama In The Pot Chicken Dinner

I was on Pinterest searching for some different recipes to try and I came across quite a few. I pinned the ones that looked really interesting and inexpensive to try. 

You don't have to copy the recipe all the way....just add your finishing touches and call it your own. I changed up some of the ingredients and gave it a new name. 

All you need for this dinner:

Crockpot

Chicken (any part or whole)

4 medium golden potatoes 

(depending on family size)

1 bowl of baby carrots 

Curry, Garlic, Onion Powder

Chicken Powder

Wash and cut your potatoes the way you want to. Get a bowl and add baby carrots to fill up the bowl. In a different bowl, take your potatoes and put them in there...season them with curry and garlic powder...give it a good stir. Add your cleaned chicken to the crockpot and season it thoroughly, sprinkle chicken powder on top and add a 1/2 cup of water. 

Add your carrots and potatoes on top of the chicken and let the crockpot work it's magic.

This meal can cook overnight on Saturday and wake up to Sunday dinner. 

Try it...you'll love it!
