This is the post excerpt.

Hi Everyone! My name is Bri. Most people say to pick your niche when it comes to writing blogs. However, I like to change things up, because lets be honest, being normal is boring. My blog will consists of many things; mama hacks, fashion, beauty tips, photography, fitness, food, inspiration, some informative information and some not so much. I just want to share my passions with you, and I want to keep things interesting! Like salad, you can add all kinds of things, so everyday there will be something new…. What’s in the salad?

Fake Bake Flawless

I’m all for people feeling beautiful about themselves. I know many people feel better about themselves when they have a tan, at least I know I do! 

However, I’m not a promoter of the sun or tanning beds when it comes to getting that tan you want. My stepmother has had skin cancer twice due to excessive tanning. 

And who really has the money for a spray tan once a week or so? That can get so expensive! My stepmom used to work at a salon and she would give me spray tans for a cheap price. However, I found something that works amazing— Fake Bake Flawless! Not like the spray tan cans you buy from Walmart and it leaves you looking like an orange! It honestly gives you this amazing bronze tan. I buy mine from amazon because that is where I have found it cheapest. 

If you have a spray tan gun, great! If not, it does come with a mit. You just spray yourself and dab the mit over it. You can do as many coats as you’d like! I buy a 6 oz. bottle ($12.95) and it usually last me about 6 months. Although, I don’t use it every day. Nor do I coat my whole body every time I use it. Sometimes I just do a little on my face to have a bronze glow look. Obviously it would last you less time if you use it more often. Feel beautiful about yourself, but don’t risk your health while doing so! ♥️

ZzZzZz 😴

Soooo, it is 2:30am and my son was ALMOST asleep. Knowing that sleep was so close in my future excited me beyond words! This mama is t.i.r.e.d. Did you hear me? I’M TIRED! I want to catch some zZzZ’s… a lot of them!! I look over in his crib because I thought he was asleep, and I wanted to make sure before I headed to bed. His eyelids were almost closed and then he saw me and he got very wide eyed. I ducked down but…. it was too late. I reset the kid! His battery was full again. He was fully awake and ready to partayyy!

I guess I won’t be catching very many zZzZ’s tonight, today, this morning, whatever you wanna consider it. I don’t even know what today is.. goo goo gaa gaa, did I mention I’m tired? 😴 💤

Parmesan Chicken Roll 😋

This recipe is very similar to my homemade pizza rolls recipe I posted several days ago. The only difference is the toppings. 

— For the dough you will need: 2 cups flour, 2 and 1/4 teaspoon yeast, 1 teaspoon salt, 2 tablespoons oil, 1 tablespoon honey, and 2/3 cup of water that is 120 to 130 degrees (that’s if you use the same exact yeast I do, all yeast is different). Mix all the dry ingredients, and then add water (be sure to check the required temperature for the yeast you have), oil, and honey. Mix it all together until you get a nice smooth dough ball. Knead the dough for about 2 minutes. Let it sit for about an hour to rise. While the dough is rising, shred the chicken. 

After dough has risen, add chicken, cheese, and marinara sauce on the inside. Roll it up and stick in the oven! Cook on 350 (everyones oven is different) for about 15-20 minutes. Add oregano and parmesan cheese. Enjoy! 

My Son ♥️

A sweet smiling face

A giggle that touches my soul

10 tiny fingers

And 10 tiny toes

Eyes that graze into mine

A heart so full

A love so divine

 An unconditional love

The greatest blessing 

 Given from the man above

— All the proof in God I need is in you, my son you are a gift from the Heavens ♥️

That Time Again 🕓

The time has come again. College is starting back up. YAYYY! Can you feel my excitement? It’s really sarcasm. 

However, it is my senior year.. thank goodness for that! I think I can almost see the light at the end of the tunnel…if I squint. 

Anywho, I was getting ready for school and I go to grab my backpack and find my furbaby in there. Basically she was saying “no mommy, don’t go!” TEMPTING.. oh so tempting 😅🤔
