    Clearance Sale at Cents of Style

    IMAGE: Clearance Sale- Items Starting at $4.99
    I’m working on a new series for the blog this summer focused on FASHION! That’s right, this very unfashionable chick is going to share her story in “Finding Fashion”.  After a couple key purchases I’ve made over the last year I’ve found that dressing a certain way really makes me feel better inside and out. It all started with a pair of boots from Cents of Style. 
    I love checking out their Fashion Friday deals (use coupon code SEA for 50% off on 5/16), but was really excited when I found their clearance section – with many items as low as $4.99 shipped!

    I’m so excited today! I got a package from my dear mother in law, who is currently living in Japan. I got an email one day asking if there was anything we’d like, along with some pictures of some purses she had found and wanted to know if I would like one. So I responded telling her I’d love anything to enhance my food photography. Thinking she might send me a cute little plate or bowl. I was NOT expecting the large package that arrived on my doorstep today – Check out the dishes on Instagram. My current first world problem is I have nowhere to place all these lovely dishes. I think a china cabinet is now needed. 
    This weeks Feature is:
    I haven’t spend a whole lot of time on Erica’s blog before, but last week she shared a Zucchini, Black Bean and Corn Taco’s recipe that caught my eye. I  happened to have a fresh zucchini on hand, and everything else is a staple in this house, except the Feta cheese. Wow, just wow! Please check it out and give it a go. My kids cleaned their plates with minimal complaints, and some even had 2nd and 3rds!!

    So now I’m a total follower of Erica, and I need more of her healthy meals that my kids are going to eat up. I did some browsing and found these – enjoy!
