Influenster Vox Box!

Okay.. so it has taken me forever to make a post about this. I have only been filling out surveys for Influenster for maybe a few weeks and they sent me a Vox Box. If you don't know what one is.. it is a box they send you full of AWESOME stuff to test. In my box I received:

These little lovelies are supposed to help with appetite control. I can honestly say that so far they seem to be working pretty well. I have been trying to shed some baby weight from having my daughter recently. So far I have lost 9 pounds and I intend to keep it up!

Ok.. so I didn't even know this stuff existed.. It is AWESOME! I personally havent gotten a cut or burn I have had to use it on.. but I have a two year old boy. I have used it on a couple scrapes he has gotten playing around and it seems to work amazing. I also used it on my brother who plays football, and he said it was awesome. I LOVE LOVE LOVE this stuff. I will be purchasing more when it runs out.

As a mother of two.. sometimes I get headaches. And this stuff also seemed to work really well. And the taste wasn't bad.. which is also a plus. This is also another thing that I didn't even know existed. I will be purchasing more of this as well.

I had to find a picture of the boxes because I ate my bar before I could take a picture of it. And I have ALWAYS been a fan of Zone Perfect bars. My family has purchased these for years and years. The new one that they sent me was amazing. They are filling and great for you... perfect for a meal replacement if you are in a hurry.. which as a mom.. I usually am.

I also was unable to get a photo of this amazing little cookie because I ate it too fast. I got the cranberry almond thins.. and holy moly! THEY ARE SO GOOD! I also gave my son a bite of one and he was very very disappointed when he realized that mommy had eaten the rest of them. I will be purchasing more of these as well.

I hope to get more boxes from them in the future. It really was amazing to be able to try out these wonderful products.

Super Delicious Peanut Butter Cookies!

Ok now first off I have to say that this is not MY recipe. It is one I found on pinterest. It is by far my favorite peanut butter cookie recipe I have tried. The cookie dough doesn’t stay firm enough to press in the fork marks.. BUT they spread out and get huge and they are still nice and chewy without being gooey. I found the original recipe here http://www.momtastic.com/cooking-recipes/dessert/164457-classic-peanut-butter-cookies Now.. on this website it looks like she was able to get the fork marks.. so I am not sure what I am doing that is so different.. maybe it is that I just dump all the ingredients in a bowl at the same time and don’t do dry and wet separate at first.. but oh well… this is how I do it :) Ingredients: 2 cups flour 1/2 tsp baking soda or maybe a tini bit more… which might be why mine spread out more 1/4 tsp salt 1 1/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar 1 1/4 cup white sugar 1 cup softened butter (I do the “no no" and slightly soften in t...

Corned Beef and Cabbage

Well, its St. Patricks day... so I decided to try my hand at making corned beef and cabbage. I have never made it before but I was very very pleasently surprised with how it turned out. Corned beef is one of my husbands absolute favorite foods, and he says the way I cooked it was the best he has ever had. I also liked it, especially for my first time ever eating it. Here is how its done! Ingredients: Package of corned beef (you can get it at Walmart, Harmons, Smiths, most grocery stores) Salt Water 1 head of cabbage Instructions: (Now to make your own corned beef from scratch it literally takes 7-10 days to cure.. so that is why I (and most people) buy it packaged.) Take your corned beef and trim off a little bit of the fat on top. Me and my husband both have texture issues.. and it didn't seem to affect how moist the meat was. And honestly you can skip this step if it seems like too much of a pain, all the fat dissolved off anyways. Take a rack (I used a co...

Meaty Deep Dish Pizza

Tonight I was thinking PIZZA! Its the weekend, me and my husband had some episodes of Master Chef to catch up on.. so whats better than pizza?! As you can see in this picture.. there was some dough hanging over the edges.. I cut it off. This is what it looked like cut off so I decided to fold it down so the pie would look prettier. Ready for the oven! All popped out of the pan and ready for devouring. Sooooooooooo good! I was worried that it was going to be soggy once I cut into it but that liquid was the only bit that was in there.. it was not soggy at all I promise.. it was amazing. I had some spring form pans that I hadn't used yet, and thought it would be a great recipe to test them out with. So... lets get to the good stuff shall we? ☺ Ingredients for Dough: 1 (.25 oz package) of active dry yeast 1 tsp white sugar 1 cup warm water 2 cups all purpose flour 1 tsp salt 1 tsp garlic powder 1 tsp onion powder 1-2 tsp Ital...
