Random Thursday: I'm Addicted To

Linking up for the first time with Meg, Em, and Lin for their Random Thursday Link Party :)
 
1. Magazines.  I have a problem with buying them every time I go to the store.  I also subscribe to about 5 different ones.  I love going to Barnes and Noble and buying 3 or 4 at a time - magazine hoarder??
 
 2. Decorations.  If my bank account would allow it, I would change our decorations every 6 months.  I just love so many different styles, colors, and themes.  Should have been an interior decorator.
 
3. Shoes.  But then again, what girl isn't??  See my shoe obsession here.  Don't judge!
 
4. Makeup and Perfume.  Ever since I was a little girl, I have always been a makeup and perfume junkie.  I remember going through my mom's Avon catalogs and making a LONG list of things I wanted.  And when she would get the perfume and makeup samples from Mary Kay and Avon, I would always steal ask for them!
 
5. Bath and Body Works - ANYTHING!  I love it so much I'm doing a giveaway this week!
 
6. Dr. Pepper.  This has always been my beverage of choice.  I'm pretty sure it runs in my family because my Granddad loved it and so does my Dad.  I finally made the switch to Diet Dr. Pepper about 3 years ago because it was so bad for you and now I'm slowly switching back to regular (when I need something other than water) because aspartame is bad for you too.  Make a health Dr. Pepper, people!!  I'm also loving Zevia right now too - but it's just so dang expensive!
 
Well, this was a fun link-up party...thanks girls for hosting!  I also just realized this may be my only post without pictures so I'm adding this for fun :)

    I like to drink American Dr.Pepper! It's so good! And so much better than the German one!

    I'm totally with you on the Dr. Pepper cause that sucker is de-li-cious! This is definitely nothing to be proud of but the hubs & I go through about a 2 ltr a day :/

    You like BBW too?! Sweet. If you havent already, try their Strawberry foaming hand soap next time you're there. So great.

    Thanks so much for linking up with us this week!

    I was about to say.... Dr. Pepper is pretty much synonymous with Lin in my mind! Also love the cupcake quote. So true. Totally with you on the makeup - I've been obsessed with it for as long as I can remember.

    Thanks for linking up with us and joining in the RT fun! Hope to see you again next week!

    Dr. Pepper was my favorite drink in middle school. I still get one every once in a while and it takes me back! Haha. I also love magazines, but have a hard time keeping up with them. I have 16 next to my bed right now!!!

Nail Files and a Giveaway

Today I'm linking up with Tara and Vicki  for their fabulous linkup party, The Nail Files. Essie : Turquoise and Caicos Julep : Ivy Annnnd...I'm doing something a little special for my readers today - a nail polish giveaway!!  I am admittedly copying Christina over at Easily Entertained .  :) She recently did a nail polish giveaway (that I missed out on..boo) and I thought what a GREAT way to get rid of some of my overflowing collection of polishes!!! You will win 8 bottles of nail polish including brands: OPI, CHI, Ulta, Avon, 2 Glitter Pots from Julep, and an Ulta Lipgloss! I apologize for the lighting - I will try to get a better picture and upload it. All of these polishes are slightly used (maybe 2 or 3 times) except for the CHI brand and the green Ulta one - those have never been used.  The glitter pots and the lipgloss are also brand spankin' new. a Rafflecopter giveaway

Halloween Treats

For work gifts this year, I used these free printables  and these free printables  to make these cute little treats!  I had a lot of fun making them.  I dragged my poor mom and David around to so many stores looking for different colored Tic Tacs and eyeball candy.  I wanted very badly to make the Vampire Vitamins...who knew it would be so hard to find red Tic Tacs! I also made this easy Halloween Bark. What You Need:   1 Package Halloween Oreos Candy Corn 2 Packages Wilton Candy Melts in White Halloween Sprinkles - I ended up using different sprinkles than the ones in the picture...a girl has a right to change her mind, right? Pretzels - I stole these out of our Trick-or-Treat bowl because I felt like it needed something to offset all the sweetness. 1. Crumble up the Oreos.  I crushed some by hand, some in my food processor and broke some in halves and some in fourths.  Spread out on cookie sheet over wax/parchment paper.  Sprinkle candy corn

A Batman Wedding and a $9 Wedding Dress

I was on this blog today and she was talking about how women spend so much money on wedding dresses.  It reminded me of my wedding and then I realized I've never blogged about it!!!  It's already been a year and half and I still haven't even scrapbooked it!!!  Where does the time go? Ok...to the dress.  I knew exactly what I wanted.  I wanted it to be short, satin, and a "pick-up" style dress.  I looked around at David's Bridal and other stores but I just couldn't see spending more than $100 on my dress.  (I've been married before and had the big, fancy wedding - and we see how well that worked out!!)  So this time, I wanted a small wedding and didn't want to spend much.  I walked into Ross one day looking for something else and decided to walk through the dresses to look for a dress for my sis, the MOH.  It was like the clouds opened up and the angels were singing and the sun beamed down on this dress.  You can't really tell from this pic,
