Linking up today with Hello Hue on the little things:

Hello Hue Little Things



Sweet tea  is so dull and boring without fruits in it.  All you need is Lipton tea, sugar and add your favorite fruits. I love adding strawberries, peaches or lemons into my tea. nom nom

Watermelon does a lot more then just quench your thirst on a hot and humid summer's day. It's full of antioxidants! It can be used as a beauty aid to reduce skin blemishes, just rub a small piece on your skin and leave it on for 10 minutes before you rinse it with water!

I love these pom-poms in Kaylee's nursery.  So easy to make and can brighten up my  mood even when her room is messy!

Melissa made Kaylee a lot of cute bows while she was here to visit us

I am not a messy person but I have trouble keeping my bathroom organized! Good solution is to find a small basket and just throw everything in there :D

Love these 3 products that my friend Michelle introduce me to.
Cure Natural Aqua Gel, The Botanics toner


Thank you for taking your time and stopping by, have a great Wednesday!

    Ive never tried sweet tea! It looks very inviting. All Ive had is the Indian Tea a version of which you get in Starbucks called 'Chai Tea Latte'.

    I agree, putting fresh fruit (or fresh flowers) on/in anything makes it 20x better!

    I am all about small baskets to tidy up in the bathroom! I found some adorable ones at Trader Joe's of all places, and they have become a rather neat catch all! They are such an easy solution to the mess!

    Hopping over from the little things!

:: bits of our home ::

Home is the one place in all this world where hearts are sure of each other. It is the place of confidence. It is the place where we tear off that mask of guarded and suspicious coldness which the world forces us to wear in self-defense, and where we pour out the unreserved communications of full and confiding hearts. It is the spot where expressions of tenderness gush out without any sensation of awkwardness and without any dread of ridicule. ~Frederick W. Robertson Our home is not big nor fancy but just cozy enough for our lil family. So grateful that we did not get affected by hurricane Sandy and prayers to anyone north of us that was affected. Happy Wednesday and Happy Halloween! Taking Kaylee trick or treating tonight!
