Couponer Wannabe

*I am doing this post from my iPhone on the way down to Temple, Oklahoma to see family (no, I'm not driving!!  But I just wanted to warn you in case there are any typos :)

I like to think I have become a couponer.  Not an extreme one.  I still have some learning to do but I wanted to share my recent coupon adventure.  (Tomorrow I will be posting my coupon binder...yes, I have a coupon binder) 

I want to go ahead and put this out there though...I am not the couponer that has her binder at the register digging for coupons and making people wait in line.  My binder is strictly for organizing.  I get all my coupons ready when I make my list so there is no extra waiting and I don't even take my binder to the store.  I hate to be "that" person.

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

H54F and Nail Files

Linking up with Tara @ Fabulous but Evil and Lauren @ From My Grey Desk 1. New Manicure... Ulta: Ruby Slippers .  Not very springish but I was just feeling the red this week. 2. Scentsy Order - Doesn't this look fun?!?!  I love getting orders in...it's just like Christmas!!  Check out all the new spring items here ! 3. Wine & Palette with my friend, Chastity.  And trust me, we thoroughly enjoyed the "wine" part of the wine and palette!  We may or may not have shared a bottle of wine....plus a glass :) 4.  My friend, Laura, took me on what we will call a field trip this week.  She took me to our local Asian Market.  I'm not sure what these eggs were called.  I was a little overwhelmed by all the "other" interesting items that I forgot to take a picture of the names of things!  But I just thought these were so pretty! 5.  The hubs' parents bought a cabin at a lake about 3 hours from here!  T...

High Five for Friday

Linking up with Lauren from My Grey Desk Blog  :)   This is my first H54F and I'm really excited about it.  It is a weekly link up to showcase some of the most favorite parts of our weeks!  How fun is that?? 1.  I had my first cup of coffee this past weekend.  I only drink coffee in the fall/winter so I've been waiting patiently.  This White Chocolate Caramel Latte was yummy!!! 2. I bought this new cereal to keep at my desk at work for a healthy snack.  I love kid cereal (cocoa pebbles, cocoa puffs, etc) but this is a grown up version :)  It's time to be an adult...at least in the cereal department! 3.  Monday was our 1 year anniversary!  Read our engagement story here .  No, I have not blogged about our wedding at all...or scrapbooked it ... shame on me!  I kept telling myself I would do it before our anniversary got it...yea that didn't happen!! 4. I recovered my planner this week.  I b...
