Do roast chicken and potatoes from before this week!

This is NOT my breakfast, I swear. This is the practice pre-Easter roast chicken and potato dish I made before this week.

I become really nervous when I take to cook something new for people other than El Hub, Tabs and Connor, so I like to do a dish i or ii times.

I dunno… It'due south only that I'k non naturally gifted with cooking. Certain, I tin can follow a recipe and do OK, but I don't want people to leave hungry. I want y'all to come over and stuff yourself featherbrained. That's my new mission in life, which is why I do things similar practise runs of this roast chicken and irish potato dish, which I think I also talked most in last week's Sabbatum Surfing (yes, after 11 years of blogging, sometimes I echo myself, haha).

It turned out really well! The recipe'southward by Laura Vitale of Laura in the Kitchen. Her recipes aren't fussy, and they're delicious and easy to follow. This one took me 10 minutes to prep the dark before. Basically, you throw the marinade ingredients and the chicken into a basin, then stick it into the fridge overnight so the flavors tin marry. The next mean solar day, I warmed up the oven, chopped some potatoes, and added those to an oven safe bowl with some olive oil, table salt and rosemary. That was it. So piece of cake! Then delicious.

And then that'southward what we're having for Easter tomorrow, and I recall I might also make a carrot ? cake.

Tabs believes that this tablecloth is here primarily for his convenience.

I just got that Ralph Lauren lemon print tablecloth at HomeGood concluding week, by the way, and I was so excited to see the colors in the room that I put it on the table right when I got home without thinking about the wrinkles or anything. Of course, Tabs is now obsessed with it… I recollect he thinks it's there to make the forbidden naps he takes on top of the table more comfortable.

*sigh* Cats…

Other than Easter prep, I as well have to swing past TJs, and oh! — while I'm in that location, I'm going to take to track downwardly one of the sales associates because I heard through the grapevine that the famous Trader Joe'southward Rose Oil Ultra Moisturizing Hand Cream, which I'm putting on my hands right now, past the style, is returning for Mother'due south Solar day, so hopefully that'due south true.

FYI, if you live in the Novato area, yous ameliorate get to the Trader Joe'southward on Grant before I practise, girl, considering I'yard gonna make clean that shelf out! I got no shame. I'thou gonna walk up to the brandish with my cart and sweep everything into it with my arm in one fell swoop. You recollect I'thou playing, but I'm totally not! 🙂

Alright, that's my plan, and I'k stickin' to information technology. Before I go, how most another coffee and some light reading?

• A few things I recently learned and will now exist unable to unlearn forever. 1) That eating placenta for meliorate skin actually is a thing (say what?), but that 2) applying information technology to your skin topically isn't a affair…yet. iii) That the most common sources of placenta used in skin intendance products are from sheep and pigs. four) And that yous can currently find this trending in Korean and Japanese peel care.

• Speaking of skin intendance, Lifehacker recently posted this detailed scientific discipline-based skin care guide, and it seems to conclude that cleansing, moisturizing and sunscreen are probably all you lot need.

  At that place's also a list of agile ingredients that, according to the blog, probably exercise something, and I was glad to run across some things in there that my skin likes, like salicylic acid (BHA) and benzoyl peroxide.

At that place are apps to help you discover different pare care cocktails to address specific problems (like acne, wrinkles, what accept you lot), which handling masks are all-time suited for your skin type, and fifty-fifty oral care apps to assistance you figure out the best way to get a brighter smiling and healthier gums (Ummm… WANT!).

• The "natural" dazzler category is growing like a fertilized philodendron. Practice you always wonder what it actually means when a line is labeled "natural," "green," or "organic," since there aren't whatever legal guidelines that define what truly makes a production [INSERT NATURAL-SOUNDING Merits HERE]? I do all the time. Attraction recently interviewed five leaders in the space, including Josie Maran, Tata Harper and Tiffany Masterson (the founder of Drunk Elephant), about what it means to be dark-green.

• To quote the great Diana Ross, who just turned 74 years immature, "Information technology takes a long time to go to be a diva. I hateful, you gotta work at it." Here are 18 of the most iconic dazzler looks from her career so far.

• Didya know yous could practise this?? When you lot buy NYX makeup online, you tin can become it engraved (!).

  So this means I can get "Tabs rocks!" on all my eyeshadow palettes. Absurd!

• 3 dewy skin-loving makeup artists (including one of my faves, Katie Jane Hughes) requite their top tips to accomplish skin that gleams without venturing into grease ball territory.

• MIND BLOWN! You can clean your beautyblender and your other makeup sponges by sticking them in the microwave with some soap and water.

At that place's some sketchy history (haha) behind the origins of pencil atomic number 82.
You have the ability to improve your mental strength. Here'south how.

I ate this for breakfast a couple times this calendar week and really liked information technology. It's easy to prep, keeps me full and is tasty, as well. I substitute the stevia for maple syrup or honey, add an obnoxious amount of cinnamon for flavor and top it off with a scattering of blueberries.

Keep your fingers, crossed, OK? Considering I need more than of that Rose Oil Paw Cream in my life, so exercise y'all, LOL!

Accept a great weekend and a wonderful ? Easter. I hope to talk to you lot soon.

You friendly neighborhood dazzler addict,
