Flavorful Corn on the Cob

Something interesting about me? I love corn! I will eat corn anyway it could possibly be cooked; so you should find it surprising that up until a couple weeks ago, I had NO idea had to make corn on the cob. It was on sale at Publix so I bought a whole bunch and thought, "Yes, I am going to learn to cook this". I have to admit, Jason helped me create this recipe. (But I cooked it all by myself.) Seriously, I am not a chef, but this is so do-able. You can choose any spices you like and the great part is, since you used olive oil, you don't even need to roll the corn in butter!

I noticed that the Benefit dried quickly enough that I could immediately move into my normal makeup routine while the Clinique was so light and runny that I had to fan it dry. Also, the eye treated with benefit had fuller skin with less wrinkles whereas the other eye was still full of tiny wrinkles and creases. Go get yourself some! If it doesn't work for you, Ulta has a 60 ...

High Five for Friday

Oh my goodness, the first Friday of summer. Well of course this has been a good week. 1. Discover card has double cashback today so I am taking full advantage and buying this Kate Spade handbag that I have been drooling over all week. I called their customer care and the lovely ladies at Kate provided some extra off, making this bag, well, mine. 2. Markdowns at Target were so good this week! Got myself a very cute pair of shorts for only $5 dollars! (Pictures to come) 3. I started my blog and hopefully more than 2 people will read it. >>>Stay tuned for a post I've been thinking about doing forever, to come tomorrow! 4. Summer is here! I will be teaching summer school for three weeks, only 4 hours a day and I think I like it better than nothing all day. I get home at 12:30 and I am like...well...now what? So then I go running! 5. I am going to Jason's parents for Father's day weekend so ...
