BLT DEVILED EGGS Mom  and I decided to do something different and thought deviled eggs was a good one. We had all ingredients so thought we would give it a try. INGREDIENTS 1 dozen hard-boiled eggs peeled 1/4 cup mayonnaise 1 tablespoon honey mustard -- we made our own 4 strips candied bacon diced small -- we used plain bacon 2 handfuls small cherry tomatoes quartered 1 handful basil leaves chopped -- we used dried basil Chili powder to dust We had the ingredients, adjusted the recipe for 3 eggs,  boiled the eggs and cooked bacon in microwave. Funny story! Mom dumped the bacon on the paper towel. I said, "Make it nice." She shook her head. I said, "We are on Social media you know!" She tried to straighten it up. LOL! INSTRUCTIONS Slice each egg in half lengthwise and remove the yolk. Put all the yolks in a small mixing bowl and all the whites on a platter. Add mayo and honey mustard to the yolks and mix until well combined and sort of fluffy. Note: We advise adding

This craft is simply cute and only takes a few items to make. My grandson loved it when I gave it to him, he said "It's HALLOWEEN?"  I gave it to him the day we made it, he's only 4 years old and has no concept of time. But that made me happy that he loved it.

  Baked Mexican Street Corn  is a different way to eat fresh corn! We couldn't find the Cotija cheese so we used Feta instead.  We both thought the dish was pretty good although  Mom did not like the Feta cheese. Here's what you need to make this tasty recipe: Ingredients 4 ears Corn ½ cup Sour Cream ½ cup Mayonnaise ½ teaspoon Garlic Powder 1 teaspoon Chili Powder 1 ½ cups Cotija cheese crumbled **NOTE : We did add some cilantro, lime zest and juice to the mixture because I noticed the other recipes were calling for it.  Instructions Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. In a small bowl, mix the sour cream, mayonnaise, garlic powder, and chili powder. (Plus, we added cilantro, lime zest and lime juice!) Cover and refrigerate until the corn is ready. Shuck the corn and remove all corn silk. Cover each ear of corn individually in foil, and wrap tightly. Place directly on the preheated oven rack and bake for 45 minutes. Remove the corn from the oven, unwrap the foil, and let the cor

We have a long time social media follower & friend that is an independent consultant for Rodan + Fields. Jeanette has sent us sample products before and we loved them. She reached out to us again and said that she had some product samples we could try. She sent us samples of  Enhancements Micro-Dermabrasion Paste &  Active Hydration Body Replenish. The samples were sent in a pretty blue bag with instructions to the products. The first product we sampled was the  Rodan + Fields Enhancements Micro-Dermabrasion Paste. It is a face and body sugar and salt based scrub that gently buffs away dull skin cells and dry, flaky skin. REVIEW : the first thing we noticed is the citrus scent. We applied it to our hands for testing purposes and after washing it off, it left our skin super silky and smooth. It didn't leave a greasy residue and our hands had a bright and vibrant glow. As we get older our skin tends to dry out and look like dried up leaves. Nobody wants that 😉 This product s
