When your babe of a best friend manages to get you both the most coveted makeup from New York, you have a freak out — I may or may not have burnt the tortilla I was cooking... we reached smoke alarm status.

Now, for those of you who have never herd of the brand Glossier, let me set a few things straight.

1. Glossier is a company created by Emily Weiss who's focus is on striping down to the best possible ingredients, formulations and combination of products you could ever imagine. They call themselves " a beauty brand inspired by real life," which is exactly what they are
2. They don't ship to Canada — which is why this is a monumental product round up. But fear not! They're working really hard on getting it to us

This past week I went through my closet and purged a good chunk of clothes I never wear anymore. I love doing this a couple times a year to make room for new clothes and because I don't need to hoard every single item I've ever owned just in case I decide to start wearing it again- this never happens, don't kid yourself.

It's the end of July and I couldn't even tell you where me entire summer's gone. Anyone you talk to is trying to jam pack all the summer-y things into the few short weeks we've got left, before we're forced to pull out the parkas and boots- which, to be fair,  does comes with some top notch outfits... very small trade off. I know.

Bon Appetite is a beautifully curated magazine for the foodies of the world. The layout, the recipes, the pictures- they really do a fabulous job of capturing everything I could want from a magazine including this delicious carrot cake recipe Mikaela came across the other day while flipping through.

Often, Pam and I find these really neat ideas floating on the web, send them to each other and say "Oh wow, we need to do this for the blog!"  I'd say between the two of us, we're pretty darn crafty and really good at creating things... but that doesn't mean they always look as amazing as we expect them to. Fast forward to Wednesday, when we made something that actually looked exactly as we expected it to, which if you know anything about DIYs or internet crafts it's a very rare occurrence.

I'm not going to lie, I am really bad at keeping my veeeery long paper trail of receipts, invoices and well...just anything made of paper organized. It's mostly due to having an inadequate place to store things. I work in a very small space so if my papers aren't neatly tucked away in a drawer or sorted, everything ends up in a paper box and never to be seen again...until I desperately need it and I'm frantically sorting through a years worth of junk. It's a problem.

So instead of sorting (pun intended) my problems out head on, I came up with this cracking idea to DIY a pretty looking box to store all my papers in. This is all in the hopes that one day I will sift through everything - so far, it's working out pretty great.

In my Youtube subscription box this week from TeenVogue, popped up this amazing video for Lucky Charm ice-cream sandwiches....Lucky Charm treats are something that I make on a decent basis using this super simple recipe here! Think Rice crispy squares but substituting one childhood cereal for the next. Amazing. Now taking something so gooey, sugary and delicious to the next level was almost too much for me to handle, which meant I had to share it with you!

I remember being probably 6 or 7 and owning a tie-dyed orange red and yellow scrunchie that matched my bright orange and red beach sarong with outlines of geckos on it. Extremely fashionable, I know. When I was that young I had absolutely no reason for liking something unless it held a certain function, and this scrunchie, simply kept all my hair back(which, at that age, was just as a large of a task as it is now). There's not a defining moment I can think of when I stopped wearing it, I just remember it being something I loved and then totally forgot about.
