Mama Style: WHAT I WORE

 





hat- charlotte russe, top/shoes- kohls, pants- pacsun

I've come to realize that this semester will be my hunny's last year of being in the nursing program. I can't believe that two years has flown by so fast. For the next six months will be very busy. Justin will be in clinicals three days out of the week going in from 7 AM to 7 PM. Now it will be harder for me to post outfits. I guess I will have to plan out my outfit post according to his schedule. I'm crossing my fingers that everything goes smoothly this year. I hope you all have a great week.

Mama Style: WHAT I WORE






sweater- roxy, skirt- pacsun, boots- agaci, bag- thrifted

Hey, lovelies! Yay, I finally got to posting an outfit. Like I said before the weather here has been crazy. I have been eagerly waiting for the right time to wear this outfit. Notice my thrifted bag I snatched it for $4.99 and when I got it and as of right now it still has the smell of cigarettes. Ugh, boy do I hate that smell. Do any of ya'll have plans for the weekend. No plans for us right now but we will see. I'm actually on my way to the mall to pick up a few things then rent a movie and cuddle with my loves. Have a great weekend, guys!!!

Party Details.

I have exactly three months to plan Asa's party and I know if I don't jump right to it I will be planning this last minute and of course I don't want that to happen again. There is still so much to do from purchasing supplies, painting, cutting and test baking for her cake. I know what I want and I can picture it in my head looking so perfect and everything in it's own place. I've already started collecting a few things here and there. What stress this will be but I'm telling myself to "Keep calm and plan this party." I hope you all have been doing great. Sorry for the lack of outfit post, I had planned on doing a few post but the weather here has been horrible snowing one day, gloomy the next and if we're lucky sunny. I tell ya our weather has a mind of it's own, it can never make up it's mind on what weather is best for us. Have a great day, everyone!!

If you'd like to know other details to her party here are parts (one & two)

Avocado Eggs Benedict


I love breakfast but trying to break free from your usual breakfast foods such as eggs, bacon and toast. You kind of grow tired of it. I've been searching for amazing breakfast recipes one that I can incorporate into our weekend breakfast menu. Now I have my days were I hate and love avocados but here lately we've been putting avocados in every thing from pita sandwiches to avocado may dressing. Justin loves avocado he could it everyday if we had stocked in the fridge. I may try this recipe out this weekend and surprise me with it. Anyone love or hate avocados?
Smooth and creamy mashed avocado on toasted English muffins, topped with a slice of salty, crispy bacon and a poached egg.

Ingredients

◦2 English muffins

◦4 slices bacon

◦1 avocado

◦Salt

◦Pepper

◦4 eggs

Instructions

1.Heat a sauce pan with 2 inches of water to a simmer.

2.Split the English muffins in half and toast until browned.

3.Cook the bacon to a crisp and set aside.

4.Cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl.

5.Add a pinch of salt and mash with a fork.

6.Spread the avocado over the toasted English muffin halves and top with the bacon.

7.Crack 1 egg at a time into a separate small bowl or cup. Stir the simmering water with a spoon and gently pour the egg into the swirling water. Repeat with the second egg (I poach two at a time).

8.Cook the eggs for 2 1/2 minutes, until the whites are cooked through. Remove with a slotted spoon and let drain for a minute before placing on top of the bacon.

9.Cook the remaining two eggs and serve seasoned with salt and pepper.
