Outfits, a cooking first & a couple thrift purchases

Since the beginning of this year I have been wearing faux fur like a crazy woman. The above pic is my newest one which is my first (non vintage)

I ordered it on clearance from Forever 21 I paid $38.00.


When I bought this little white one for $1.00. I was not sure how much I would end up wearing it. But I am thrilled I did purchase it because I love it and wear it at least once a week.


I pretty much feel like a VIP when I wear this fuzzy one out and about.


Yesterday I wore this blue homemade house dress I purchased from an estate sale in the summer. You would expect I was going somewhere slightly important... BUT NAHHH! I wore it to go take a visit to Colonel Sanders. Yes I got dressed up to get lunch from Kentucky Fried Chicken. *LOL*


A couple days back we had a family lunch with my Parents, Brother & Grandparents. The place we went to was a Chinese / Malaysian / Thai food Restaurant. (Lets just say I SCREAMED when I seen this lobster on a table.)



One of the first things I made to eat this year was enchiladas.

I had never made them before. And I ADORE Mexican food. So I thought I would give it a try. I found a recipe online and gave it a go.


*Rolled and ready for sauce and cheese*



*The finished product*



*lol* @ my messy hair... But you can see the PROUD look on my face getting my picture with them... before they went in the oven.


Now for two thrift store purchases that excite me

*SiGh* "ooooooOoOOoOhhHh"


My amazing caramel drizzle milk glass party platter

(Apparently made by Hazel Atlas)


"DEAR HECK" I love this thing. I have it all planned out..

Plan A: Celery, Broccoli, Carrots & Green Peppers in the dishes around and dip in the middle.

Plan B: Pretzels, Peanuts, M&M'S, Cheese puffs and corn nuts in the middle.


What's this?? Fancy Contraption



It's some fabulous Lady Ellen curlers

aren't they groovy?

I was shocked they still had the little cardboard card the clips were fastened too way back when. I want to give these a try real soon.




The last thing I have to tell you is... One of my very first thrift finds in 2012 was a LOBSTER t shirt. (I was completely shocked and in total dismay) I will surely take a pic the first time I wear it. *It is flipping GREAT*



Bye for now
