Perricone MD Thanks to Influenster and Perricone MD for allowing me to try the Face Finishing & Firming Tinted Moisturizer. I loved the fact that this tinted moisturizer didn't irritate my skin. It had a delicate fragrance which wasn't over powering which is always good in my opinion. Plus it has an SPF of 30 which I also like. I think the tint it gives to my skin is best during the summer months when I tend to have a bit more color. So far, this fall I've found it to be a little on the dark side for me. But, even if I don't where it in the winter I will definitely turn to it again when warmer weather rolls around. This was my first time trying a Perricone MD product but I've got my eye on the Citrus Facial Wash. If anyone has tried that I would love to hear your thoughts. 

Nike Revolution 3 I bought these over the weekend basically for walking and light jogging. So far, I love them.! They are lightweight and oh so comfortable. Definitely a shoe that I can wear for miles and miles. In fact, I'm sure I could just wear them all day long. 

Michael Kors Jet Set Tote I finally found a Black tote bag that can hold everything that I can throw in and it still  looks stylish and elegant. It's not too big or too small and it has so many inside pockets for organization.

Summer Garden Summer is my favorite time of the year. I love the warm weather the sun and lots and lots of flowers. Right now there is so much color in the garden it just makes me smile. What about you, do you have a favorite season?

Homemade Ice Cream What could be better on a summer afternoon than homemade ice cream? Nothing, as far as I'm concerned. So I want to share with you my favorite recipe for strawberry ice cream First you will need an ice cream maker. I personally use a Cuisinart yogurt and ice cream maker that I have had for years. Then you will need 1/2 pound of hulled strawberries chopped and added to a blender. Plus, 1 3/4 whole milk, 3/4 cup sugar and 1/2 cup of heavy cream. After you blend the ingredients pour it into the ice cream maker and freeze and enjoy! If you have any special homemade ice cream recipes I would love to hear about them. Just leave me a comment. And if you have a blog let me know, I would love to check it out.

Coach Wristlet I found this great purple Coach wristlet which I think will be great for spring. It adds just a pop of color without being too much. I only wish the wristlet were a little wider. As it is I can get a phone and a few credit cards inside but not really anything else.
