A Little Bit Spicy...

I adore cooking, trying to get into baking but that's a whole other story! Recently I have been trying to make my own sauces and seasoning. I find a lot of store bought stuff too salty and full of other bad things! Here are 2 quick simple recipes of mine. One is for a fajita seasoning mix and the other is a slightly spicy pasta sauce. I love spicy foods :) And there is a press full of herbs and spices which leaves me spoiled for choice when I'm cooking!

Fajita Seasoning Mix Recipe
1 tablespoon cornflour
2 teaspoons red hot chili powder
1 crushed oxo chicken cube (or similar)
1 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon paprika
1/4-1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder (or a crushed garlic glove)
1/4 teaspoon cumin

Music of the Week: The Wanted

I LOVE THE WANTED. They are fantastic!! I want to go on a serious night out with those boyos. Imagine the laughs and the mayhem!! This week's Music of the Week is dedicated to the 5 messers. Here are 5 of my favourites from them at the moment. Can't wait for the new album.

1. Glad You Came

This is my most played song on iTunes. I cannot get sick of it.

2. The Weekend

Choooooon!! Makes me wanna go out!

Benefit They're Real: Review

As I was browsing in Debenhams with a bit of time to kill I decided to wonder over to the Benefit area and hope I would be pounced on. I wanted to try a certain mascara and guess what! Today I finally got to try Benefit's They Real! Holy smokes! Everything you've heard is true. This is the BEST MASCARA IN THE WORLD!! I knew there was good reason I included it on my wishlist! :)

I already have long eyelashes but this took them to a whole other level. The length was perfect and the mascara was thick and gloopy like I found Bad Gal Lash to be. My lashes were separate and not clumped together like can happen. 

Also it's black black. I have to have the blackest mascara so I love this even more! My eyelashes are so fair, I really should get them tinted but my eyes seem to be sensitive to that technique. Was that amount of tears from my eyes normal!?

Nails of the Week: Oldies

I wanted to try out some nail polishes I haven't used in a while.

First up was Barry M's Lemon. Mmmh, I know now why I haven't used it lately. It is so watery. I wasn't happy at all so then I decided to put H&M's Cracked Nail Polish over it to umph it up a bit. I think it did the trick. I love the colour of the Lemon but I'd rather a polish be thick than watery. I love other Barry M polishes but this one was just not up their usual standard.
