I think it's clear that I love to cook - but I don't always want to make a big, complicated meal since, well, there aren't enough hours in each day.
I tried one of these Ground 2 Table spice blends last night (Blend #2 - All Purpose Spicy) on a slow cooked whole chicken and it turned out amazingly well. It may not seem like a huge deal, but I love not having to take out my measuring spoons. And these packets are perfect if you want something home cooked, but without the hassle of going through too much effort.
There are 12 different blends to choose from and they're $2/per packet. I promise you there's absolutely no reason not to try these out. None of the blends contain any salt or sugar either, which seems a little nuts since it tasted so good. Try try try!
I swear to God this primer feels as good as the ones available from Smashbox. How is that possible? I have no idea. But it's clear that from now on, I'll only ever be buying the e.l.f. primers. They even have five different types to choose from, which seems insane to actually have choice when the price is so crazy decent.
There's absolutely no reason you need to be spending $30+ on any kind of primer, so please stop it. You're only encouraging these overpriced companies that should be really ashamed of themselves.
Put your leftover paint in these paint buddies and retouch your walls anytime you need to!
Honestly, this is the type of thing that would make a great wedding gift. Don't you think? Only 'cause it's something you'd never really buy for yourself, but it's so f-ing handy to own. Would I be the only one excited to get one of these?
Normally, I wouldn't give a shit about new LEGO products. But this one, clearly, caught my eye.
Here are just a few of its features;
- Opening rear walls
- A removable roof with secret vegetable garden
- Dusty blue floors
- Refrigerated cases
- Crates of Powersauce bars
- Surveillance cameras
- Cans of Buzz Cola
- Frozen Jasper
- Hot dog oven
- Squishee machine and Squishees
- Rear storage closet with a rat, cheese and rat hole
Ummm, secret vegetable garden?! That's so great. I would build and showcase the hell out this in, like, my bedroom or something. Such a great idea. I feel like if they're capable of selling this, they're definitely willing to do Moe's Tavern or something at some point.
These can hold up to four different kinds of herbs and would be crazy helpful to own if you've ever found yourself throwing away old herbs that have gone bad in the fridge. There's a flat surface on each top so you can date it and label what's inside.
As SOON as this becomes available for purchase again, Imma be all over this. SO SMART/SO CLEAN.
Leftover pasta is usually always (but sometimes not) gross, can we agree on that? And I'm always making too much or too little of it since, well, I'll never fully understand things like ounces, grams and "serving sizes." I'm sorry, but they didn't any of this stuff in school like they should have.
Solution? This guy.
Why the hell am I only learning NOW that these exist? It's $10 and handy as hell to have in a kitchen.
I refuse to ever stop giving eyebrow advice. REFUSE. And I'm aware that I've recommended numerous eyebrow products. But I think I've finally found one that's reasonably priced and actually good quality. Here's an example of what it looks like when used.
It's pretty weather proof and won't run on you in the rain or snow or anything - it'll even stay on and not smudge off if you decide to not take it off with the rest of your makeup at the end of a day. I've done that a few times. Goddam it, I just love having fuller eyebrows. Did you know that the number one facial cosmetic procedure among women in NYC this year was eyebrow restoration? So funny that that's a thing now.
In any case, this Milani pencil is magic and you can get it at basically any CVS in New York. It ranges from $7 - $10, which is pretty decent, too.
If you've ever kept hand cream in your purse, this is the one to buy. The main reasons?
- It doesn't make your hands feel oily.
- You only need to use a tiny drop of it each time you use it, so it lasts forever.
- There is no smell. Absolutely no flowery shit here. Just a normal, nothing kind of smell.
Is $10 too expensive for a 1.4 ounce bottle? I don't think it is. Especially considering the fact that cheaper brands last barely a month and feel oily as hell.
Also, are you lotioning your hands right? I feel like you may not be. What I like to do is put a tiny drop on the top of each hand and then rub that in. Why do people always put the cream in their palms first? That makes no sense to me - your palms are not dry and never will be. You should be taking care of that wintery, withered, constantly-exposed hand skin, damnit.
Ram & Row created this gorgeous piece of living room furniture that morphs into a rowing machine. It was designed by Patrick Saint-Martin and runs for - well, probably a ridiculous amount of money since they don't list a price.
SUCH a great idea, however.
