Lusting for Lace
I am completely lusting after lace for autumn. I am not all about the lace clothing, but I am definitely all for the lace headbands, shoes, handbags and bracelets.

Drake Concert @ Radio City Music Hall
Yet again another concert MOB's missed *sigh* well at least bring you photos/footage so you guys shouldn't be complaining. Yesterday Drake SOLD OUT Radio City Music Hall , I believe for his first real solo concert( by the way which some of my friends attend and said it was a great show).He bought out special guests Tyga, J.Cole, and Young Jeezy as the show openers before he came out to give the sold out crowd of 6000+ the show of their lives. Mack Maine and Francis and the Lights were special guests of his set for the night.

Gossip Girl
I think it's about time that Chuck and Blair get together and just be happy. They are the best couple ever! I honestly never get tried of Chuck saying "I am Chuck Bass"... anyone else wish they could be Mrs. Bass? Dan's chest hair... seriously gross!!! Juliette is about as annoying as Georgina Sparks seriously they need to go buh bye. What are you thinking about Eva?

My Quick FOTD
Didn't have much time to get ready, but even when I do, lately, this is pretty much the make-up I use: foundation, concealer, pressed powder, liner and blush (alternating brands and colors of course). I like keeping it simple, because 1. it's quicker to get out the door if I'm late and 2. it's easier not to mess up.
For the brow highlight I used MAC Dream Maker, then I noticed it's more of a gold frost (but still pretty- specially paired with this orange and gold blush!), so I think next time I'll be switching to MAC Shroom instead for daytime, and use this for evening looks.
Ha, this picture is kind of unflattering, but rest assured, I don't have a beard.. :/

A is for Apple
Every year since I was an itty bitty my mum and I would go to the orchard in the fall. Miller's Big Red has a fabulous orchard with many varieties of apples you can pick your own or buy already picked bags. You can also get any other apple treat imaginable or cider and donuts. It's not fall unless you spend an hour at the orchard on a brisk day filling your bag with amazing Michigan apples! My favorite kind of apple is the "Honey Crisp" this year it has been hard to come by though.

{heaven!}
and what do you do with some of the apples that have been picked? Make apple crisp of course!!!
I started by peeling and chopping five apples. (I used honey crisp, jonamac and ida red)*Note: to keep from browning I added a squirt of lemon juice.
I combined the chopped apples with a couple dashed of cinnamon, a couple tablespoons of sugar and 2 tablespoons of flour. Then I mixed well.
I spooned the mixture into my glass baking dish.
Next I combined two parts each of Quaker Old Fashioned Oats and brown sugar, with one part each of flour and butter. I mixed well with a spoon until the mixture was crumbly, and then topped the apples.Note: my family cooks like Paula Dean, because of this mine is extremely unhealthy.
One stick of butter, 1/2 cup brown sugar and 1 cup oats. You get the picture.
30 minutes at 375.... and you have an amazing dessert!
What is your favorite apple recipe?!
