Sunday Social

August 12, 2012

I am linking up in this week’s Sunday Social with Neely and Ashley.  Answer the questions and link up with us too.  It’s a great way to get to know other bloggers!

This Week’s Questions:
All about food!! Yummmmmy 🙂 
Thanks to Lindsey and Christine for the questions about food!! YAY!

If you could only eat one thing for the rest of your life, what would it be?
Pizza!  I love pizza!  Real NY style pizza.  I could eat pizza every day.  I always tell my husband that if we are ever on a game show and they ask him what my favorite food is, that he needs to remember that it’s pizza.  I remind him of this small tidbit every time we are eating pizza.


What’s your guilty pleasure/comfort food?
My guilty pleasure is chocolate, milk chocolate.  I just need a single bite and everything is all okay again in my world.  


What’s the weirdest/craziest thing you’ve ever eaten?
I am a rather picky eater and admit that I have never eaten anything weird.  I just can’t do it.

What foods do you avoid at all costs?
Meat, especially ground meat of any kind.  It has grossed me out my whole life.  I am mostly a vegetarian.

What meal reminds you of your childhood?
Noodles…  I was an even pickier eater as a child.  So when the family would eat a meal my poor mom had to make me noodles.  She mixed them with cream cheese and sugar for a delightfully sweet dish.  I ate this all the time as a child.

Share one of your favorite recipes and the story behind it.
I am not a good cook (see my post called Confessions of a Terrible Cook).  One of my favorite things to make is a Spinach and Artichoke Dip.  My brother had a catering business years ago and shared a recipe with me.  I adapted it a little and here is what i came up with…
Ingredients:
2 16 oz cans of artichoke hearts
1 16 oz jar of real Hellman’s mayo
1 package frozen chopped spinach
16 oz grated parmesan cheese
1 sourdough bread bowl
Rinse and Drain artichoke hearts and place in food processor
Add jar of mayo, thawed box of chopped spinach (drain out the excess water) and the cheese.  Turn on food processor to mix ingredients for maybe a minute and a half.  You can do this longer if you want the dip to be creamier.  Put the dip into a hollowed out sourdough bread bowl.  Wrap in aluminum foil and place in 350 degree oven for 30 minutes.  You must use a bread bowl so that the bread absorbs the oil from the mayo.   I have tried this in a glass baking dish and it doesn’t turn out as good.  After 30 minutes unwrap the bread and cook for 10 minutes until the top browns slightly.  Serve with sourdough bread, raw carrots, celery and tortilla chips.  Everyone will think you are a gourmet chef and will ask for the recipe.  I promise!

    Hi Stacie. I just wanted to stop by and thank you for leaving me a sweet comment at posedperfection.blogspot.com about the Cutesy Clipboard. I am your newest follower. I would love for you to visit again and, if you like, click on my “Follow Me” button to add Posed Perfection to your GFC. BTW, I have too many comforts to list here, but I’d have to say bread and chocolate rank pretty high. Have a blessed week. ~Nici

One dress that can pretty much be worn year round… yes, please! Just change the shoes and accessories and create a whole new look. #ad 

In the meantime, I’m loving this versatile style from @coldwatercreek that can be worn to brunch or lunch, to the office, or even for a night out on the town this Fall season.

It’s a soft knit that couldn’t be more comfortable. It looks great styled with a belt too.

Be sure to visit coldwatercreek.com for all of their new Fall styles or comment SHOP for links.

Just a few vacation highlights while we were able Just a few vacation highlights while we were able to enjoy some sunny outdoor fun.

Currently enjoying the same views, but from under an umbrella. No complaints from me!

Let’s face it, we all have insecurities. One of Let’s face it, we all have insecurities. One of mine is the vertical lip lines in and above my lips. 

When @rebekahstarkey_np told me about this type of treatment, I was intrigued (but nervous). I did my research and decided it was time to just go for it. 

The numbing cream and Rebekah’s skill and attention to detail made a huge difference. I didn’t feel a thing and I’m so excited to see the difference in a few short weeks.

Skinvive is a hyaluronic acid treatment that is used for hydration, texture and radiance.

Yes, I did have some swelling and bruising, but things are already looking better.

Skin Pharm started in Nashville and now has locations in Texas, Georgia, Florida, the Carolina’s and opening soon in IL. Check to see if they have one near you for all of your cosmetic dermatology needs to help you feel more confident too!💖

Since I’m trying to use more clean sustainable products both in my home and on my body, I wanted to share an online marketplace for 1000’s of carefully curated and vetted essentials including cleaning products that are free of harsh chemicals, clean beauty products, expert curated vitamins and SO MUCH MORE!

My first box arrived at my home last week and I was so happy to see everything that I ordered including some clean beauty products to take on this vacation.

In fact, I’m over here ordering a few more things to change out nearly all of my home cleaning supplies to healthier options (great prices too).

Enjoy your day! I’m relaxing under an umbrella on the beach in Cabo today.🏖️

One dress, two looks!✨ This soft + comfy green One dress, two looks!✨

This soft + comfy green knit tank dress from Coldwater Creek comes with a matching long sleeve sweater for endless styling options. #ad

Wear it during the day as a tank style and switch it up for the night with the cropped sweater when the temperature cools off.

It’s flattering, fun, and available in multiple colors—perfect for every body. 

I love wearing it with the tall black boots and adding a few finishing touches.
