Thirty One Organizing Utility Tote and Fundraiser



Have you ever used Thirty One products?  If not, you're missing out, especially if you're as anal as I am about keeping my stuff organized while out and about (though oddly not my purse!)  Admittedly, I don't have many Thirty One items, but lately they've been my go-to gift for the moms, and they've been loving them!

I was recently given the opportunity to review a Thirty One product, and host an online party fundraiser.  I'm so glad I opted to that the opportunity, because I've been debating if I wanted an organizing utility tote, and that's what Amy sent me to try out and review.  As soon as I opened it up I knew exactly what I wanted to use it for - summer pool events!  Let's face it, swimming requires A LOT of stuff, and it's often stuff that's hard to keep organized.  Until the pretty lady below ended up in my hands that is!

With Father's Day last weekend, and the annual pool "party" that coincides with Father's Day, I was so anxious to try this out.  There are 7 total pockets on the outside - perfect for 2 types of sunscreen, swim diapers. toddler flip flops, sippy cups and travel cups for adult beverages.  Plus, plenty of room on the inside to transport pool toys!  And, a bonus that I didn't really think of while debating if I wanted one previously - it can get wet, which is prime for something that I plan to take to a pool!

Now - the fun part!  If you love Thirty One products, or want to try some out, check out my online fundraiser - here.  Fundraiser you say?!  Yep - proceeds from sales will be donated to Feeding America.  Feeding America is a fantastic organization that I am proud to be able to support whenever I can, and I love that my day job is so heavily involved in supporting the organization as well.

Hunger in America exists for over 50 million people.  One in 6 people in the US is food insecure (more than 1 in 5 children), meaning they do not know where their next meal is coming from.  Food insecurity exists in every county in the U.S. and Feeding America's mission is to feed America's hungry through a nationwide network of member food banks and engage our country in the fight to end hunger.

Help me and Feeding America fight to end hunger, and organize your life a bit while doing so!

The Best Vanilla Cupcake Recipe

A fabulous vanilla cupcake recipe is something everyone needs. EVERY.ONE. Not just bakers. Not just parents that host a lot of kid parties. Everyone. I've tried several, and many have been phenomenal. Then I tried Amy Sedaris's after finding the recipe online, and it was above and beyond the best vanilla cupcake I've ever made. It was an easy batter to make, baked up beautifully, and most importantly - tasted amazing. Regardless if you have never made vanilla cupcakes and need a recipe to start with, or even if you think you have the best - give this one a shot. You will not be disappointed! Vanilla Cupcakes Ingredients: 1 1/2 sticks unsalted butter, room temperature 1 1/2 cups sugar 2 eggs 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract 2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder 1/4 teaspoon salt 2 1/2 cups flour 1 1/4 cups milk Directions: - Preheat oven to 375 degrees. - Mix butter at medium speed until smooth. Mix in sugar until well blended. - Add eggs, mixing until fully

Slow Cooker or Pressure Cooker Beef Chili

I don't experiment much with chili because it rarely goes well for me and my family. I've slowly adapted my chili recipe over the years, but I've still always used canned chili beans, with a flavored sauce. I've been wanting to try regular beans (whether canned or dried, I wasn't discerning, just didn't want the sauce), so off to the Googles I went rather than trying to recreate the spice blend from my normal canned beans. Because I was originally planning to make chili in the Instant Pot, that's where I focused my search. Thankfully the recipe I decided to try was adapted from a Slow Cooker recipe, because life got in my way and I wasn't able to make the chili the night before as planned, and I wouldn't have had time to use the pressure cooker with my schedule that day. What drew me to this recipe was the simplicity of the ingredients. And lack of jalapeno. Because somehow nearly every time I plan chili I forget to buy a jalapeno, even if it

St. Louis Style Pizza (Thin and Crusty Pizza)

Pizza crust is a very personal thing.  Thin, thick, pan, deep-dish, etc.  You love what you love.  I'm a St. Louisan - I love THIN crust pizza.  Like, cracker thin!  I've tried a few different thin crust recipes , and since they're pizza they're enjoyable, but when I saw this recipe on Cook's Country while watching some old videos I knew I needed to try it immediately.  Made it a few days later and it was fantastic.  This is definitely my new go-to cracker thin pizza crust recipe. What I loved best about this recipe is that it was so simple.  A handful of ingredients, no advance prep needed, no unique ingredients, simple.  Literally anyone that can combine a few ingredients together could make this recipe.  And because you don't need to prep it in advance, you could make the dough, sauce, top it and bake the pizza on many given weeknights!  A huge win for our house!
