What's In My....Pantry

It's the first Tuesday of the month and you know what that means right? Okay you probably don't, it means we're getting nosey and looking into random places. Last month it was What's In My Make Up Bag, and this time it What's In My Pantry. It's the last month of fun, so make sure you link up for the fun! Click here for all of the other prompts.

Lucky for you...or probably me that we just had our house fumigated so I had to clear out my pantry and in putting my house back together I got to organize my pantry. So here's my pantry and all of the staples that we have in it.

A close up of our favorite food stuff:

Steal Cut Oatmeal, Organic Raisins (they are not sticky like other raisins), Kids Cliff Bars, Trader Joe's Microwave Popcorn, Annie's Cheddar Bunnies

Olive Oil and Vinegar from my favorite shop, Trader Joe's Sunflower Seed Butter, Frontera Salsa

What's a favorite pantry staple in your pantry?

What's In My Make-Up Bag

Hello Foxy Make-Up Friends! I'm back over sharing what's in my life with some of The Blended Blog Ladies...this time it's what's in my Make-Up bag. If you're coming from The Blended Blog, thanks for stopping by! So the prompt says make-up bag, but I have a few drawers and a caddy, and don't really carry a make-up bag. So here is my stash.

What you believe that I didn't really get into make up until last year? True story, I decided that I've worked on my accessories, then my wardrobe and the next thing was going to be to conquer make-up. I found YouTubers that has my same eye shape and watched a TON of videos, practiced when the kids were in the bath and then asked them how it looked. Let me tell you it probably took 2 months to actually get the cat-eye down. And even more time to get fake eyelashes down. Another post in itself. Anyway...let's get to the actual reason to this post.

So here is my bathroom sink.

My make up stays in the middle three drawers.

Oh wait, let's open them for you...welcome to my make-up stash.

I did buy these with my own money, but linked products are affiliates and I will receive a small commission if you click on it. Thank you for your support!

So the last drawer is some of my hair stuff, but it looked funny when I just opened two drawers...Let's start with the left drawer.

Primer - I mostly use my Painterly Pot from MAC // Eyelashes - I almost always use Ardell 120 // Eyelash glue - I have a latex senstivity so I use a latex free from Revlon // Finishing Powder - I use NYX, although I don't really see a difference? // Extras - I didn't mention the eyeliner I use. I use two Urban Decay Pencil and Stila Liquid Eyeliner

And now the middle drawer.

You wonder why I have a make up caddy on top of my sink? Well that is the stuff I use on the daily...let's take a closer peak.

And if you were curious, which I'm sure you're not, but I like to overshare, if I do go somewhere I will typically pack my make-up bag with these things...ask Alison...she can vouch, we shared a room in Vegas, haha! I think I can say she was stunned at how much I traveled with. Hey a girls got to be prepared. Although I don't typically travel with everything in category 1 and 2, just one of them depending on where I am going.

 

1 - Naked Smokey Eye // Naked // Too Face Chocolate Bar

2 - Tartelette // Contour Kit

3 - Mark Jacobs Concealer // Make Up Forever Foundation Powder // Physicians Formula Blush // Mac Bronzer

4 - Ardell 120 Eyelashes

5 -  Jamberry (Chic in Pink) // Nudestix (Pulse) //  Neutrogena Moisturesmooth Color Stick (Wine Berry) // Mac Lip Pencil (Ruby) //  NYX Butter Lipstick (Sweet Tart)

Hope you liked taking a peek into my make-up stash. So what's a favorite in your stash I need to know about? Now head on over to Andrea to see what's in her make up bag.

What's In My...Junk Drawer

It's the first Tuesday of the month and you know what that means right? Okay you probably don't, it means we're getting nosey and looking into random places. Last month it was What's In My Purse, and this time it What's In My Junk Drawer. Fun right?

 

Our junk drawer is in our kitchen. It's funny when you move somewhere, you never know what drawer is going to become THAT drawer. For us it's the drawer right next to the dishwasher.

Let's take a peek inside.

Pretty messy right? The drawer could barely close, you know how it is, do the shuffle to get the drawer to close.

Taking it out, it looks MUCH worse...so much stuff!

Obviously you can't see everything from this view so let's explode it. BAM - there you go.

Let's look at some of it...there was a throw away camera on it, from 2010...yep 15 pictures were taken...I had asked a while ago to see if it was viable to develop they said no, yet I still kept the camera...it's now in the trash.

And can we talk about how many note pads there were? Holy cow, there was 6...those now reside in our kid arts and crafts bin.

The stuffed lion, came on a Dorothy doll my aunt gave to Mini Fox. One side is Dorothy, One side is the Scarecrow and then you flip it over and it becomes he witch on one side and the other side is the tin man, and then the lion was velcroed on there, that thing was going to get lost, so we took it off and put it in the drawer. So there it will stay for now. Where else would I put it?

There was a bunch of random cords in there...I had originally put them back in the drawer and was showing Mr. that I cleaned it up, and then he said you know we don't need any of those cords right? So he took them out and was going to throw them away, but convince him to put it somewhere else...just in case, you know, you just never know.

And the fridge magnet and the coupons from 2013...seriously this was long over due.

The old blue tooth...I don't even think there is a way to charge it, perhaps that is in that baggie, haha. It's in the trash now.

And now the drawer looks so much better. Here's the clean up.

 

A little less junky, in an ideal world I would have super cool Container Store dividers and such, but I don't, so this will have to do.

Thanks for helping me clean my junk drawer, now I can get it closed.

Here's the line up.

What In My...Bag

Hello Foxy Friends! The Blended Blog ladies and I are starting a new series/link up called What's in My...fill in the blank the first Tuesday of each Month. This month it's What's In My Handbag....We all want to know the real story of what's in your bag, not the pretty bags that you see on IG...I know for me my bag NEVER looks like that!

So head on over to The Blended Blog to see what is in the prompt leaders bags, Lisa, Alison, Nicole and Whitney.

Let's get started, I'm going to show you the real deal. I took out some napkins from my purse and that's it...everything else you see is how I pulled it out of my purse.

 

Let's start with the bag, this is my bag, Mr. got me from a Kate Spade flash sale. He did good. 

Let's first take a peek inside my bag.

 

 

I know, so much stuff in there right? It weight a ton...not even exaggerating.

 

 

Lets use some labels....cause who doesn't love labels? So much stuff right? So let's break it down by category.

 

 

Let's start with the kids stuff...too much kid stuff. I had no idea there was this much kid stuff in my purse. Apparently my kids like to stash things in my purse.

 

 

These bags, have no real rhyme or reason other than I stick random things in it apparently. But it works for me, so I kept it that way.

 

The silver bag has some medical stuff in it...

 

 

And the pink bag...let's just call that a make-up'ish bag that I found all sorts of other things in there too, like stamps? What were those doing in there?

 

 

 

Yes I really do carry around both of these planners with me, the one on the left is our family planner and the one on the right is my blogger planner. I can't believe I went this long without a blogger planner, makes my life so much easier when doing blog posts on the weekend.

 

Yep I have a bag just for my gum...cause why not?

 

 

And that's everything in my bag...and I have to thank this prompt because it made me clean out my purse and it's so much lighter...so thank you!

 

I realized as I was adding the text to the pictures that I forgot to put my phone in there. I usually keep my phone in that little pocket sewn into the side of the purse. I keep that and my blog cards in there, cause there have been so many times I want to give someone my blog card and don't have any on me, so I keep a few in those pockets and a few in my purse.

 

I hope that you join in on the fun!
