Everything on the site is 40% off. My favorite piece is the sweater cardigan that has the look of a defined blazer. Pair with a white, black, or patterned top. These sneakers are C-U-T-E! I love black and brown and these will go with everything this fall. The jeans are high rise and straight leg. They would look great with booties as well and are only $32.99!

This is my FAVORITE chili recipe and it is very healthy. I know I mess it up nutritionally when I add all the cheese and Fritos to it, but dang it's SO good. If you are are still holding strong with the new year diet, this chili is high in protein and fiber & lower in calories. I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as my family does. Stay warm friends! xo, Carrie ..read more

I made this for the first time over the weekend and I can't stop eating it! I love Chex Mix, but this is even better. Add in red pepper flakes to the recipe for a little extra kick. This is the perfect snack to have around with extra family in town, for game night, or to gift in a little Christmas tin to your neighbor! Merry Christmas, Carrie ..read more

Need some cute looks for everyday running around? These pieces on sale at Old Navy will keep you warm, comfortable, & stylish. A general rule of thumb for picking out outfits- If your tops are baggy, pick tighter pants. If your pants are baggy, wear a more fit shirt. This will give your body better shape and keep you from looking like the marshmallow man. This puffer vest is so on trend & adorable, but looks best with leggings, joggers, or fit jeans and not baggy sweatpants. You can shop this look on my LTK page here: SHOW ME THE LOOK ..read more

This is my go to recipe every week during the Winter. I love the flavor of homemade chicken broth so much more than that canned business at the grocery store! One chicken makes a huge amount of shredded meat that is very healthy and can be added to many recipes like sour cream chicken enchiladas & chicken tacos. You can add it to your salads for low fat protein throughout the week. The broth is rich & flavorful and enhances every homemade soup. My favorite is chicken tortilla soup. I hope you get a chance to try this recipe. The clean up is a little messy, but it creates a great base ..read more

This recipe is a family favorite! I wanted to share it with you because it is so easy to make AND perfect to make ahead or freeze. I like to make a large recipe of this and then freeze in smaller bags. It's great to thaw out for quick weekday meals or to send back to College Station with Colton when he comes home for a weekend. If you have family in town for the upcoming holidays, this recipe will feed a large group & you can make it now and freeze for a fast meal when all that company gets into town. It's also great for a football watching party! You can make this in a crock pot as well ..read more

These beans! I started making this bean recipe years ago when my kids were little. Back before the Instant Pot, I would just slow cook them on a burner all day or cook them for hours in my Crock Pot. Either of those methods will work if you don't have an Instant Pot! I just love the speed at how fast they cook with this method. You can make this recipe simply as borracho beans to serve with your favorite Mexican food, or you can add them to a blender and make the BEST homemade refried beans. Strain almost all of the juice off of the beans before adding to the blender. Central Market sells home ..read more
