Stitch Fix Mail Day

Stitch Fix came in and Im so excited its like Christmas morning each month. Here is a look at what my stylist picked out for me using the profile I filled out.

I know my iPhone camera sucks inside so next time I will try to do them outside or use my good Cannon but I was in a hurry sorry.

This shirt is ok but it was 78bucks and I don't think I like it that much.

So I will be sending this top back and there is a section where you can tell them you thoughts and comments and there is a section about price so I obvi put to much

This isn't ,uch better I was trying different lighting.

This top Im keeping it is so soft and comfortable. it reminds me of the picko tops that I love.

I am keeper this one. 48$

 

I like this top and the bright colors and pattern but I have large arms and this should width doesn't slim them at all so I will be send this one back also.





This is the back of this shirt and I know I haven't took the tags off yet 

Here is the front and I know I don't have a tank on underneath but like I said earlier I was in a hurry and just was throwing them on. I am keeping this shirt and will have a tank on under the next time you see me sporting this top.

 

Now on to the dress....I have big arm and huge hips and this dress makes this look larger.

I cant wear any skirts or dresses with pockets due to the fact that it make my hips look larger. I like the pattern and wish the lighting would show the colors its black grey and white its really cute. 

Here is my box this month. SO all in all I kept 2 tops and sent the dress and the other 2 tops back. I need to get back on my gym time and work these arms and hips off so if you know any good exercises please fill me in.

Getin Ranchy wit it

The Famer has been trying to teach me how to rope and this weekend he put me to the ultimate test.
                                                        Here is a sneak peek
                    

You probably remember Maverick from here. He just finished 3 months in Natchez MS with  David Carter getting trained for being a cow horse. He knows how to do it all and did great. We got him home last Friday so this weekend I couldn't wait to try him out.
I am left handed and learning how to rope from a right hander was just to crazy to Im learning how to rope right handed. Now I will be the first to say oh slinging the rope will be easy so I can do it no problem. Well I was WRONG! It took me forever to get the hang of not moving my arm or elbow. Im still learning. I haven't even began to rope and ride yet Im learning on the ground and sitting horseback.

I'm going to keep practicing and hopefully I will get it in no time. It is so much fun and I cant and will not be showed up by my kidos so I've got to get ahead start.

 

Now on the other hand only if I could get as good as the Farmer

Instead of buying a fancy contraption like these that can cost2grand and up we put together our own and lucky for us it worked out perfect.

I'm ready to give it another try and I'm going to work on keeping my hand flat and down and throwing with my pinky and putting Trevor Brazile paint it twist with it/

Freezer Meals

With the school year fixing to start I've been trying to make my life a little easier by making freezer meals. I saw an episode of the Pioneer Woman and just so happened she was making some Freezer Meals so it worked out perfect I added hers to mine. So I started an organized grocery list

 

The grocery list came from my OCD Binder

I love love love this  its a life saver

After taking a day and making 4 or 5 at a time I was so over it. I figured out that for me taking a day and cooking and putting together a dozen meals in one day was not fun. The best thing to do would be to double a recipe and each night I cooked we would have one for dinner and stick one in the freezer. Now I'm going to warn you that you are going to look like its the first of the month and got your stamps reloaded. #justsayin  the worst part is you grocery bill is going to double too but I bought other stuff than just stuff for freezer meals

For my Freezer Meal Storage I didn't want to pay 3bucks for 2 contains so I googled it up and found the perfect cheap website.

 

Day 1 Freezer Meals

Spicy Dr. Pepper Shredded Pork

Cinnamon French Toast Bake

Taco Stuffed Shells

Cheesy Chicken Spaghetti

I had some awesome lil chefs in training to help me on my adventure



Cheesy Chicken Spaghetti

1 Rotisserie Chicken or chicken breast  (I just try to make things easier for me)

Boil noodles and while noodles are boiling I take a 1/2-3/4 block of Velveeta cheese and cut up into pieces and open a can of rotel. Then I drain the noodles but leave about 2 cups and half of water left in boiler then I add rotel, can of cream of chicken, Velveeta and chicken that I picked off. If I boil Chicken I use a cup of chicken water instead of noodle water. Once everything is mixed together I add tonys, salt & Pepper to taste. I'm not a big fan of thick dry chicken spaghetti so if it is that way I will add another can of cream of chicken or some water or chicken broth whatever I have on hand.

I have just changed things to our likings so there is no rhyme or reason why I make it like this.

 

 

More Freezer Meals:

Sour Cream Noodle Bake

Spaghetti Sauce

Salsa

Lasagna  (I tried the oven ready noodles, hope they are ok)

Drain noodles and reserve 1 1/2 cups noodle water.  Add noodles and noodle water to the crawfish tail mixture and stir in 2 bags of shredded Velveeta.

Favorite Mail Day....Stitch Fix

I know I have fell of the blog world but now that my super Hot Bish Raven has spilled a little secret I'm pretty sure I will have more time to blog because I'm going to have a lot more time on my hands.
Stitch Fix is a once a month personal styling service. You sign up, fill out an extensive survey describing in detail what your specific style preferences are, i.e. preppy, classic, etc., and then a stylist picks out five different items (it can be a top, pants, jeans, dress, jacket, jewelry), they are then shipped to your front door, you try on all items, keep the ones you want and send the ones you don't want back in a prepaid package. There is a $20 monthly fee for this service, however whatever you decide to keep, that $20 goes towards that item/items.

Here is my first Month and I'm so excited like it s Christmas morning.
