I added this to my shop this week. It’s a super comfy t-shirt dress made of cotton jersey. this ruffle around the neckline got many different feed back from my family and friends. some hated it and told me that i look like a crown. some liked it. what do you think? 

belated thanksgiving wishes & recipe

By


belated happy thanksgiving! i had about 15 people over for thanksgiving this year. i made turkey and sweet potato casserole, and people brought other dishes. it was fun! 

since sweet potato casserole was so popular at the party, i will share the recipe here:) 
its sweet, and almost like a desert! 
casserole ingredients:
1.5 lbs of mashed sweet potatoes (peeled, cut and boiled)
3/4 stick butter at room temperature
1 egg
6 tablespoons of sugar
1 teaspoon of pumpkin pie spice
salt
topping ingredients:
1.5 cups crushed cornflakes
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup chopped pecans
3/4 stick melted butter
preheat oven to 400
beat egg, potatoes, sugar, butter, spice and salt till smooth and blended
pour into baking dish and bake until brown around the edges (25 min)
prepare topping while potatoes are baking (just mix topping ingredients)
spoon over baked potatoes and put back in oven until topping is brown and crisp (10 min) 
its so easy and good! enjoy 

red tights inspiration

By



i went to flickr to get some inspiration in how to wear a red tights. the one i bought was more like wine color, darker red. but i thought those two pics above were so cute.
also, liebemarlene pairs color tights with vintage skirts and dresses, and i love her wardrobe! 
i rarely wear pants during the day. 4 days out of 5 days at work, i wear either dress or skirt. so i must wear tights now since its 30 degrees outside in philly!
