Favorite Pins This Week -- Easter
I had a ball last night going through pins on Pinterest.
Literally, I was up till 2AM.
I figured since Easter was coming up I'd post some of the Easter things I've been pinning.
Cute Bunny Faces Lollipops. I would so do this and take a picture of myself. Haha. Source.
Chick Cake Balls -- Absolutely love her website, comes with full step by step instructions for recipes that include pictures. Source.
DIY Glitter Eggs Source
Cute Gift Idea for Easter. Source
DIY Easter Wreath made with plastic Easter eggs and Washi Tape. (By the way, does anyone know if you can purchase this from a craft store? I know you can with duck tape?)
I've recently become obsessed with the idea Washi Tape (ok, so maybe since last night) I'm going to do a post of all the different things you can do with it that I found on Pinterest.
As Always, Thanks for reading!

Orange Creamsicle Cookies
These cookies were inspired by a pin on Pinterest.com, of course.
I wish I could make up recipes like this!
Anyway, it was real simple to do, and they taste delicious, and the fiance approves!
Orange Creamsicle Cookies
By the way, I'm loving the quality of my new camera. It's really paying off. :)
Just so you guys know, I burnt my fingers pretty bad to take this photo. I went to move the cookie sheet and completely forgot it just came out of the oven, OUCH!
Yummy!
For the recipe click here.
And if not, I'll add it for your convenience, and I am not taking credit for the recipe, just want to let everyone know. :)
2 1/2 cups all purpose flour
3/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup (2 sticks) butter, softened
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 firmly packed brown sugar
1 large egg
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons orange zest (for me that was the zest of 2 oranges)
2 cups Guitard Choc-Au-Lait Vanilla Chips (I used Ghirardelli white chips)
Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
In a small bowl, combine flour, baking soda, and salt; set aside.
In a large bowl, cream butter and sugars until light and creamy. Beat in egg and vanilla until smooth. Gradually add flour mixture until combined. Stir in orange zest and chips.
Drop rounded teaspoonfuls onto ungreased cookie sheets. Do not flatten cookies; it will make them dry. Bake 8 - 10 minutes or until golden brown around edges. Do not overcook! Cookies will be plump. Cool for several minutes on cookie sheets before transferring to rack to cool completely. Store in airtight container.

The only thing different I did was used one orange, which was plenty, and to add extra flavor to the cookies I squeezed two slices of the orange in. :)
As always, thanks for reading!

Clothing Haul
Two weekends ago when I was in for Spring Break I picked up some things that I haven't shared yet. *Sigh* School is really getting the better of me this semester.
Anyway, I had a gift card for Kohls (since Christmas Ah!) so I thought I'd stop in.
I love their Lauren Conrad line.
Anyway, I picked up a pretty lace dress and two tops.
(I also have fitting room pictures, isn't this exciting?!)
This top will be so pretty with white jeans/capris or white/tan shorts.
A Lauren Conrad top, at first I felt SO guilty purchasing this. It was $24.80 (Around there).
I couldn't justify spending that much on a tank top (although it is very cute). When I went to the check out counter, the kind lady gave me 20% Friends and Family coupon off of my purchase. Made me feel a lot better!
When I'm nice and tan this shirt will look gorgeous! :) I'm even considering wearing it for Easter since I didn't have time to look for a pretty Easter Dress. I might pair it with a black blazer and skinnies. We'll see!
A pretty lace dress, I've been wanting a dress like this for awhile, so pretty and feminine.
See all the pretty dresses behind me? All so SHORT! Hate that about Junior dresses.
Found this pretty top at Target, but wasn't sure if it made me look prego? What do you guys think? I love the colors and obviously I would pare it with a orange or ohh maybe even a torquise tank?
Leave me know your thoughts.
Thanks for reading!

Nail Polish Haul & NOTD
This is probably one of my favorite nail polishes yet, and the combo together is great.
I'm wearing Sally Hansen in Sobert & Essie (from their Effects line)Shine of the Times.
I seen this top coat on black nail polish and literally in the sun it looks like a rainbow. Love it.
I'm excited to try both of these, but especially the Kiss Nail Dress. You get one set of nails PLUS a set for your toe nails. Plus it's SO much cheaper, $7.99 for the set.
I hear a lot of blogs talking about the Color Tattoo, I haven't tried it yet, but I'm looking forward to it. I got mine in Bold Gold.
A while ago I picked up the Oscar Blandi at home salon glaze. You're suppose to add this after your shampoo and conditioner and comb through. We'll see!
Thanks for reading!
