Best Pie Recipe Ever!

January 22, 2012 by suzanne carillo

What is better than peanut butter, chocolate and pretzels? Putting them all together in one amazing pie. LOVE this recipe by Nadia G from Bitchin’ Kitchen my current favorite cooking show. If you've never seen it try to find it on the Food Channel. It's hilarious and the recipes are great.

Here is how mine turned out… I'm glad I got photos now because it's not going to last long.

Comfy Cowgirl

January 20, 2012 by suzanne carillo

Form

Front

Middle

Boots

This look is unique in that the entire lower half is all cowgirl country while the upper half is big city.  Everything works together in part due to the colors and fabrics. The leather on the jacket ties into the leather boots. The top has so many colors in it I can choose any one to base the rest of my outfit on. Here I chose the orange and dark brown colors from the top.

Jean skirts are wonderful because they match anything.I have five different styles and lengths of jean skirts in my closet and I wear all them regularly. My legs look longer in this outfit because of the length of the mini skirt. The shorter the skirt…the longer your legs will appear. If you're nervous about wearing shorter skirts just pair them with tights or leggings, you'll still get the same elongation benefits without the risk of exposing yourself.

Cowboy boots are classic and will never go out of style. Personally I love them since they are so easy to walk in and I can wear them with dresses, shorts and jeans.

Top – Saks 5th Ave
Boots – TX Maxx
Skirt – 7 for all Mankind
Jacket – Danier
Handbag – Lucky
Belt- Tommy Hilfiger

Loss changes you. Complicated loss destroys you. I Loss changes you. Complicated loss destroys you. It strips away every part of your being. You become a hollowed out shell, walking around in a world that is devoid of meaning. There is no ground beneath your feet. ⁣
⁣
That person you were 35 years ago before you were married? ⁣
She's long gone. ⁣
Who are you now? ⁣
When they died the person you were with them died as well. ⁣
What do you like? ⁣
What holds value for you? ⁣
How do you fit into this radically altered world? ⁣
Do you recognize yourself anymore when you look in the mirror? ⁣
Do you even like yourself? ⁣
⁣
There is no going back to the past. Only small steps towards the unknown and drastically different future from what you'd imagined most of your life. ⁣
⁣
"Life has its own timing. It listens when you are tired and waits while you are healing. It opens doors only when you are strong enough to walk through them softly. You are not late. You are not forgotten. You are becoming. So ease your shoulders, release the hurry, and breathe out what no longer belongs to you. What is yours will find you when you are ready to receive it." - R. M. Drake

In my recent hot yoga the instructor read out loud while we transitioned through poses, ⁣
⁣
When everything seems to be going against you, remember that the airplane takes off against the wind, not with it. It's a reminder of what it means to face resistance and keep moving. Like an airplane meeting headwinds, we often find our strength not in smooth skies but in turbulent ones. Headwinds build lift. They give the wings something to push against. In the same way, strength through resistance is born in those moments when everything feels uphill. It’s in these moments that quiet courage grows, even when it doesn’t feel heroic. Struggles don’t always mean we’re failing. They may mean we’re in the very place where transformation begins. The wind that pushes against you now might be the wind that teaches you how to soar. ⁣

Hot yoga and this teacher in particular has been a saviour for me. The meditative lessons on overcoming challenges in life have made me weep openly while on my mat but they have also helped loosen the trauma trapped deep inside the tissues of my body. ⁣

Do you have a story of someone that unknowingly helped you?
