The Juicy Beauty Word

I always make this yummy egg and cheese casserole for breakfast on Christmas morning along with many other foods that have become Christmas day traditions. It puffs up so beautifully in the oven. It's a family favorite. My niece especially looks forward to it every Christmas morning. Many people have been asking for the recipe lately. I found out my husband has been doing a bit of bragging about our morning feast!!! This dish is very simple and is assembled the night before so you just pop it in the oven in the morning.  The recipe calls for bread. Sandwich loaf white bread works the best to create a light fluffy casserole. I use whole wheat white bread. Sara Lee makes one you can find in most grocery stores. It's more nutritious than plain old white bread and still works well. Himalayan pink salt is my go to salt for it's tasty flavor. I like to use sharp cheddar cheese or a blend of sharp and mild cheddar cheeses for bold taste. Egg and Cheese Casserole A

My 2017 Holiday Nail Designs  The theme for my holiday nail designs this year is A Snowman's World. I entered these designs in a holiday nail contest. I wasn't the winner but t hank you to those who voted for me! 😘  Click here to see the winners.   My inspiration came from our first snow of the season we just had, December 10th, here in the Philadelphia area. It was the perfect day to stay cozy in the house, watch the snow fall and paint the natural beauty a snowman would see on a winter day. I wanted soft colors: pastel shades of pink, mint and lavender, mauvy putty, black and white against a blue gray background with lots of icy sparkle. Acrylic paint is my favorite for painting nail art. It goes on smooth and it's easy to mix a multitude of colors. I also used Zoya Jana  for painting my snowman's hat and pine cone design because it is the perfect mauvy putty color I was thinking of. Plus, it saved me the trouble of mixing up the paint.🎨

We always want to look beautiful when attending a wedding. But sometimes, we want to look showstopping in the perfect sexy backless dress! A sexy dress calls for sexy hair and makeup.  My friend wanted just that for an evening wedding she was attending at The Old Mill in Rose Valley, Pa. She wanted a cat eye with deep red lips and side swept hair. My favorite eye makeup style is eye shadow that is gradient from light in the inner corners to dark on the outer corners. It's flattering and elegant. Winged cat eye liner adds the drama that is perfect for evening special event makeup.  Either glossy nude or deep red lips are a nice complement for eyes with dark outer corner eye shadow.

Tips for Applying Eye Shadow with Dark Corners We started by preparing the skin with toner and moisturizer. I use my YonKa Lotion and my favorite YonKa Creme for Sensitive Skin . I find it's a gre
