Hey guys!!! Happy happy Labor Day to all my fave lushes <3.
Today, my main goal is to put away this computer & get to enjoy the day sans labor. But first…
✓ Check & respond to all emails.
✓ Complete a few DIY projects.
✓ Finish a recipe
✓ Wish all my readers a HLD & share this post of all my weekend happenings (doing currently- obvs).
✓ Paint my nails.
So… once I wrap up that lovely lil’ to-do list, I plan to spend the rest of the day chilling/ working in my garden (just got TONS of new plants!), & watching my man skydive (he is currently trying to convince me to do it- not a chance in hell!).
Wishing you all a mellow, work-free, & fun Labor Day! Be safe & don’t forget to wear sunscreen ;).

++ If you’ve ever gotten a gel mani, you know how epic they are. Not having to paint your nails for 2 weeks minimum is pretty much the best invention since sliced bread. So, when I saw this DIY Sally Hansen Miracle Gel kit at the drugstore, I decided to give it a go.
…& lemme tell you, this is a serious nail polish game changer. It lasted as long as a gel mani, was so so easy to apply (no UV light needed), & has tons of really cute colors! Painting as we speak so I can check that bad boy off the to-do list! ++
++ Never heard of an Escamocha? Well, you’re seriously missing out. It’s like a fruit salad on crack & pretty much the best thing I’ve ever had. Google it, find somewhere in your hood that makes it, or whip it up yourself with this recipe. Whatever you do, you must must must try it. Drool. ++
++ Stay tuned, cause right now I am getting all Bill Nye in the kitchen in an attempt to recreate this epic drink! ++
++ My boyfriend always giving me the cutest lil “no reason” presents. He rules! <3 ++
I’d love to hear (or see) what kind of plants you planted! Random q: do you compost in your garden? If so do you like your composter? I’m in the market for one that is not hideous and/or smelly.
I am currently planting corn // jalapenos // watermelon // basil // mint // bell pepper // & blueberries!! No compost though. First time around I used nothing, & this time (especially cause of the corn & watermelon) I got some plant food :)>
