<div style="text-align: center;">It’s the perfect mind set to have...if you're rich of course. But for those of us who are still working our way to the wealthy life, we gonna need another motto.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Contrary to popular belief I wasn't always good at saving my coin's and prior to being dead broke and out of work in 2013 the idea of saving money never even crossed my mind. </div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
But once I got my next job saving was a top priority because I NEVER wanted to be that broke again. The only issue was, at the time I had NO IDEA how to save or where to start because like a lot of people when I was growing up saving was not taught to me.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">

I feel like my blog literally lives by that phrase, if there is anything I can teach you guys to keep you from the struggle-- I got you and being broke is one of the ultimate struggles that I feel like I can keep you from.</div>

Growing up my mindset was:</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
"What am I saving for when I can use this money now?" </div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
I would literally spend my money on ANYTHING just because I could (having little to no responsibility will do that to you) Most of the things I thought I "had to have" back then I don't even own today. </div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
My spending habits were so bad that I even blew through my trust fund barely a year after I was able to touch it....yea....I was a fucking mess.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
I didn't see the need for having money set aside for later, but a day will come when for whatever reason you will need a little extra coin. Maybe its for an emergency, maybe its to take the trip you always wanted or to buy your first home.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Hell maybe its for a pair of Beyonce concert tickets I'm not judging but if you don't start saving it will be a sad day when you don't have those extra coins when the time comes.</div>

<b>1) Coupon/Deal Hunt</b></h3>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
Y'all knew this was going to be my first suggestion, if it aint got a deal or a coupon then I don't want it. Of course my love of couponing and deal hunting is due to my reckless spending in my younger years. </div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
As soon as I learned that I don't actually have to pay full price for anything I was hooked. If you are not on the couponing wave catch up. Also deal hunting isn't just for toilet paper and tooth paste, its for clothes, electronics, vacations...you name it. I'll link a few past post below. </div>

<b>2) Pay Yourself First</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><br /></b></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
There is nothing more important than making sure that the money you're making, is actually making its way to your pockets aka pay yourself before you pay everyone else. </div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
Whenever you get a paycheck there is a general rule of thumb on how money should be divided. </div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
Its the 50-30-20 rule, in this rule 50 percent of your paycheck would cover things you absolutely need, like your rent and electricity. 30 percent of your paycheck would go to covering discretionary items and lastly (more like firstly) 20 percent of your paycheck goes to savings. Of course these numbers are different for each person but again its just a basic rule.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
This same theory can be applied when negotiating salary or even when deciding where to live. You never want to put your self in a position that you will not be able to survive in. </div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
When taking a new job always think, "is the income they are offering me going to sustain my living habits?" </div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
And when searching for a new apartment think "will the rent here have me living pay check to pay check?"</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
If the answer to either of these questions is yes, you may not be making enough or you may be living outside your means and in that case you need tip number three.</div>

<b>3) Create a Budget</b></h3>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
Chile budget ain't a bad word!</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's a actually a great word and a word that will be keep some coins in your pocket! </div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
Budgets should be based around your income and your necessities and your interest. I'm not the type that believes you can't spend money on things you enjoy just because your trying to save. I think there should always be room for fun.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
However where most people go wrong is spending TOOO much money on "fun" or non necessities. </div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
For example when trying to budget for this year, I decided to take a look into my subscription services. I checked my bank statements and noticed that I was paying for Netflix, Hulu, Spotify, Tidal, Amazon Prime, Microsoft Office and JustFab...bruh thats a lot.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
All services included came to a grand total of $57.96 a month (minus JustFab) which is about $695.52 per year!! Thats a potential $700.00 that I could be saving in a year going to things I barely even use. I quickly reevaluated and let some subscriptions go cutting my yearly spending on the services in half.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
A great way to budget is with "The Envelope Method" which goes like this</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
1. After you pay your bills rent, gas and electric, car payment, cell phone etc. and save of course. Look at what you have left.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
2. Decide on a budget and how much you will allocate to your different spending categories like food, entreatment, clothing, beauty, gas, hobbies, subscriptions, etc</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
3. Create envelopes with the categories you have decided on and when you get paid put the amount of money you allocated to each category in the envelope.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
4. Only spend the cash that is in the envelope on things within the category. When the money runs out, so does your spending on that category until your next paycheck.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
This method will surely have you thinking twice about those $5.00 Starbucks coffee everyday that wind up costing you *drum roll* $1,800.00 a year</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
The biggest key to budgeting is committing to only spending what you say you will on the categories you write out.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;"><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div>
<br />
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
<b>4) Savings Plans for Every Budget </b></h3>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
If the discipline of budgeting is not up your ally there is always the option of straight saving. </div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
Saving is less about putting constraints on how much you spend weekly or monthly like a budget and makes it more about just stashing some dollars away for a rainy day. I personally like saving over budgeting but I do utilize both.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
Below are four savings plans I have used in the past that I find easy to follow and helpful. Remember all of these savings plans can be modified to fit your lifestyle.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; line-height: normal;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This plan is one of the easiest to follow, you simply save a dollar for each week of the year it is. So on week one you save $1.00, on week two you save $2.00 and so on and so forth. Although this plan is laid out to start on the first week of the year, you can start it at any time and is great for all budgets. At the end of the plan you will have $1,378.00</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
How does almost $7,000.00 in a year sound? To me it sounds amazing! The 5 dollar savings plan sets you up to bank $6,890.00 by the end of 52 weeks. You start by putting $5.00 to the side and each week you save $5.00 more than you did the previous week. Mid way through the plan things start to get a little "expensive" so I suggest this plan for those's that have a bigger budget but issues with spending control.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>KEEP IT 100 SAVINGS PLAN</b></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: bold;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
THIS IS MY PLAN! This is the one i'll be starting this week, it's super basic and to the point. All you need to do is put away $100.00 each week for 52 weeks which of course by the end of the year will leave you with $5,200.00 in your savings account. This plan can also be modified to accommodate a smaller savings budget. Instead of saving $100.00 every week you can save $100.00 every other week according to your pay check which will land you at $2,600.00 in savings by the end of the year.</div>

Where are all my peeps that like to use cash? This one is for you, the "I Got 5 On It" Savings Plan keeps you from spending all your coin's while your out shopping. We all know after you break a 20 you're pretty much broke because those left over 5's quickly go to coffee or knick knacks in the next store. To avoid that with this plan every $5.00 bill you get goes directly into a savings jar. At the end of the year open up the jar and count it up. Most people I have seen try this wind up with a minimum of $2,000.00 by the end.</div>

This savings plan has no exact method to the madness and is another savings plan for the folks that like to use cash. The plan is super easy to follow-- grab a jar and every day you come home empty your pockets. Whatever change is left in your pockets goes into the jar. Do this for a year then take a trip on over to your local coinstar (do people still use those) and cash out!</div>

Out of every method I have listed this is the one I have not dabbled in just yet. The homie <a href="http://www.instagram.com/curls_unbothered">Curls Unbothered</a> who is a fellow saver told me about <a href="http://digit.co/">Digit</a> which she has used in the past to save.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Digit works by connecting to your bank account, assessing your income vs your spending habits and will essentially save for you by moving extra available funds from your account to your digit savings account. Sounds scary I know, but digits biggest claim is that it does not take the money you need. It only takes what you can spare and you have access to your money at any time.</div>

I've always loved lasagna but never liked the ordeal of making it. I hated the meticulous layering of the pan and the need to get things perfect so it stacked and cut right.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I guess the real issue is that I'm lazy LOL!</div>

Instructions:</h3>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
First thing first you need to pre heat your oven to about 375 degrees. Although the first part of this recipe is made on the stove top, like a normal lasagna its finished off in the oven.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So go ahead and get that nice and warm.</div>

<b>1. Boil your lasagna noodles.</b></div>

Do you all know the secret to keep your noodles from sticking?</div>

<b>2. Brown your ground sausage.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You can use ground turkey for this, however I started using Italian ground sausage for this about 5 years ago and have never went back. All the seasoning you really need is already in the meat.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Don't forget to drain your meat once browned.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">

<b>8. Roll your lasagna strips up.</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Almost done!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Roll each lasagna strip up, top with a little more cheese and repeat these steps on the rest of the lasagna noodles you have left.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>9. Bake</b></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Pop these babies in the oven for about covered with foil for about 20 minutes, then uncover and continue baking for another 10 minutes or until your desired crispness.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Im telling you these roll ups will be a HIT for anyone your cooking for.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For a more fancy dinner try paring with some asparagus and garlic bread.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Or you can use these as individual servings for meal preps...the options are endless!</div>

This is NOT a drill my favorite season is finally here and I could not be more excited.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There's just something about fall that makes me feel at home no matter where I am. The crisp air, the smell of apples, the snuggling...I could literally go on all day about my obsession with the season. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
However, instead of just chatting about all the feel's Fall gives me. I'm going to show you a few things you need to pick up right now to start embracing the cozy. So you can share in all the same Fall feels I do! </div>

1) OVERSIZED SWEATERS</h4>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If you're looking for a place to start your cozy journey, look no further than an oversized sweater. It's something about the way they glide against your skin that just makes you feel like you're living inside a giant hug.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Since oversized sweaters are super in style right now they can be a bit pricy. So some great places to shop for budget friendly ones are your local thrift stores, poshmark and Zaful like this cute one <a href="http://bit.ly/2OLr33K" target="_blank"><b>Here</b></a>. </div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Some of my favorite fragrances are "Falling Leaves" by Scentsational Candles which I get from Marshalls or TJ Maxx for the low low. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
However if you're willing to splurge you could always get my two faves from Bath & Body Works, Flannel and Apple Cinnamon Cider.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Candles are currently on sale for $12.95 each + there's a $10.00 off $30.00 coupon meaning if you buy 2 candles, and a travel size lotion or hand sanitizer, you can get all three things for 21.00 thats 7 dollars an item!</div>

3) COZY SMELLING HAND SOAPS</h4>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Why just make your home smell like fall when you can make every person that comes into your home smell like it too...well as long as they are not dirt balls that is lol.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Seasonal inspired hand soaps are def one of my guilty pleasures. I just love getting the bathrooms all festive and aside from decor this is a great inexpensive way to do it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
My current favorite soap is "Frozen Lake" from Bath and Body Works and right now the hand soaps are 5 for $23.00. So by using the same coupon as above and adding a few filler items to your check out to get you to $30.00 you can make out like a bandit on these soaps as well.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
With a transaction including the soaps you can get about 7 items for $21.00 which is around $3.00 an item. These soaps are normally $6.50 each!!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
If slippers are not your thing, knitted socks may be right up your ally. </div>

7) FALL FRAGRANCE BODY CARE </h4>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Y'all...I promise you this post is not sponsored by Bath and Body Works. It is just an easy place to grab a lot of Fall favorites.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For the last few years it had been Marshmallow Pumpkin Latte but all that has changed now. My new favorite fall body care fragrance is Autumn Nights! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
One of the big reasons for the switch is I think I'm out growing the pumpkin smell overall but another huge reason is because this fragrance just smells amazing. It really captures what Fall smells like without being overly stereotypical. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It literally smells like your at a football game on a crisp Friday night.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Make sure you try this one out.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

8) FALL FLORALS </h4>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now this one is new for me, while I've always liked decorating for Fall. I's just this year that I have gotten into the habit of incorporating flowers into the design.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
However since I have nothing even close to a green thumb, its best that my flowers remain fake lol. Which is cool for me because that means I don't have to constantly repurchase and since I do have allergies I also don't have to worry about them acting up. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I get my fall florals from Joann Fabrics, they are always having a huge sale on things and I was able to get theses faux flowers for 70% off!</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Everything.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
EVERYTHING IS BETTER THAN THAT!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Admittedly i'm a punk when it comes to scary movies.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
Such that i'd openly tell people that up until about college is was still "scared" of the halloween episodes of Martin. </div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
Pretty much any movie where my imagination can get ahead of it self was/is too much for me and I know i'm not alone...you ain't gotta lie Craig lol. </div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
But even if you are not a punk like me a lot of us have littles now a days so I've compiled a punk/kid friendly list of halloween movies to watch this season that won't induce any nightmares.</div>

3)Nightmare Before Christmas</h3>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
Not exactly Halloween, not exactly Christmas lol this movie spans the holiday season. This personally has never been one of my favorites but never the less it's a cult classic with enough romance and singing to keep things light.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
While not exactly a "Halloween" movie, it is about a little boy who gets transported to the land of the dead...that counts right? Personally I LOVED this movie and may or may not have cried like a little baby while watching it. It's not scary at all...it's heart warming.</div>

Another classic made for tv Disney movie that I love. One because who dosen't like magic and two who does not like Tia and Tamera Mowry!? I will say that this movie actually used to scare me a little (because I'm a punk) but also because the idea of "the darkness" coming after you was creepy.</div>

10 THINGS YOU MUST DO THIS FALL</h2>

<h3>
1. Watch Hocus Pocus </h3>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
"Come...WE FLY!!!"</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Ok, I had to start the list off with arguably the BEST DAMN FALL MOVIE EVER! At first I thought this was a generational thing and that only late 80's babies who really grew up in the 90's understood the impact this movie had on our childhood. Until recently I realized that Hocus Pocus is like this cult classic with a HUGE following of people in like every age range. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
IT EVEN HAS A FLIPPIN INSTAGRAM HASHTAG! </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Clearly #ItsLit</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
So its pretty safe to say your Fall season has not yet started unless you have watched Thackery Binx, The Sanderson Sisters and Max Dennison...that virgin who lit the Black Flame Candle.</div>

<br />
A warm and cozy season wouldn't be complete without some good old fashioned home made goodness. My favorites for the season are home made apple chips which I will have a recipe for next week so be sure to check back and pumpkin seeds. Every time the weather starts to get cool or I see a pumpkin sitting on someones porch I'm ready to get cooking. The only thing that screams fall more than these two treats is pumpkin pie...but I ave no clue how to make that sooooooooo bruh. You get what I can give.<br />
<br />
But if anyones grandmother is willing to donate a whole pie to me, I would so appreciate it =)</div>

Whats my favorite thing about fall? THE LEAVES!!!!<br />
<br />
I'm so serious! As soon as I see the leaves starting to change colors my heart skips a beat and the little kid inside of me lights up. But whats better than just seeing a few leaves change on the tree outside of your window?<br />
<br />
Seeing a whole forrest full of trees in different stages of transformation, or driving down a road lined with trees changing colors or maybe walking down a path with leaves scattered on the ground and you kick them up in joy *sigh*. Its the most beautiful sight in all the world. **Bonus- if you get a chase to see the leaves change in Vermont I swear your life will be changed forever!</div>

No matter the season I love stocking up on smell goods, no matter if its for the body or the home. I can't help but purchase new lotions, room sprays or candles. They all help to embrace the feeling of the season and fill the air with amazing scents.<br />
<br />
I love the warm coziness of fall fragrances and constantly find myself lotioning up with one of my current favorite scented lotions from the picture above so I can smell fall everywhere I go!</div>

No matter what you do....if you run...if you hide...you can't avoid PUMPKIN in the fall!!<br />
<br />
Especially the dreaded pumpkin spice latte...it really is terrible. I had my first one this year and it quickly got tossed.<br />
<br />
But fall is the best excuse to add pumpkin flavor to everything and lets be honest...pumpkin just doesn't taste so great any other time of the year.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
So while you have the chance indulge in EVERYTHING...my favorite thing is Thomas's Pumpkin Bagels *heart eye emoji*</div>

There is nothing more american than apples! You have apple pie, apple cider, apple juice, candy apples, apple sauce... *end Forrest Gump sequence* But no really apple picking is a huge fall past time and it's a super cool way to take your fall baking from start to finish. Pick your apples, go home, peel them and make something amazing with fresh from the farm ingredients!</div>
<div>

<div>
You can take the kids, the boyfriend, the girls anyone! </div>
<div>
IT'S GREAT!</div>

<div>
To be such a lover of Fall I'm almost embarrassed to say that I have never done one of these. Like honestly this is a super classic fall activity but I'm convinced that I would be the one person to get so lost inside the maze that I wouldn't be able to find my way out. Pair my HORRIBLE sense of direction with my panic attacks and it a recipe for disaster for me. But for everybody else I hear they have a ball! Check your local farms, they tend to cut the corn mazes into different fun patterns each year!</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Maybe I'll try it one day...maybe trail a piece of string behind me to find my way out lol!</div>

<br />
I can't explain to you the impact of an old fashioned get away, you honestly just have to pack up and take off for yourself to understand it. However, I can say that taking a mountain getaway in the fall that is just beyond anything you could ever explain. The crisp fall air, the views, the changing leaves and the overwhelming feeling of peace that comes over you is priceless. It may just be me (and if so thats ok I love it) but the mountains calm and renew my spirit<br />
<br />
If you have yet to venture off into the mountains in fall, do yourself a favor and book your next trip ASAP, theres really no reason to wait until next year.<br />

The end of summer marks the harvesting season for farmers and is the perfect time to visit your local farmers markets. The aisles of the markets will be bursting with color. products will be at their ripest and the taste will be the freshest you could imagine.

What am I loving right now? Heirloom tomatoes, mushrooms, garlic, peaches and apples! Anything really now that I think about it, I just love good clean food. Oh and you can't beat the prices!!<br />

When I was little my great grandmother used to watch me when my mom went to work. One of the things that I remember most about going to her house is how amazing it would smell when I woke up on the morning.<br />

The kitchen would be filled with the smell of warm fried apples. Years later I still have that scent memory engrained in my mind.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Although she never got to teach me how to make them, my mom did and with the fall season knocking on our doors I thought this family tradition of mine would be the perfect recipe to share with you all.<br />
<br />
Hopefully you'll try it out and get to enjoy this sweet treat with your family and friends this season.</div>

The Pretty Girls Perfectly Fried Apples</h2>

The ingredients listed bellow will make enough to serve two people fried apples as a side dish. However there will be enough reserve "sauce" to make extra batches.<br />
<br />
The sauce is also a great topping for ice cream or glaze to dip raw apples in!<br />

<br />
1. Slice and dice your apples.<br />
<br />
This is really all about personal preference, if you don't like skin on your apples you can choose to peel them. I don't mind the skin so I chose to keep mine on.<br />
<br />
Cover and set the apples to the side to keep them from browning.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<br />
2. In a pan melt down 1/4 cup of butter.<br />
<br />
For this you can go either way, if your trying to cut back your butter usage, melt less. If your super southern you'll probably use more. Either way you just need enough to form a sauce when you add your dry products.<br />
<br />

Welp...the time has come *squeals with excitement*</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If you have been following me long enough it is terribly apparent that fall is my favorite time of year. Little known fact, I love fall so much that Savannah's name was almost Autumn =)</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I love the smell, the cozy feel, the clothes, apple cider, Hocus Pocus and I love to travel in the fall to see FALL FOLIAGE !</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But I mean there are plenty of other benefits to traveling in the fall aside from seeing fall foliage lol. The best thing actually may be the savings and convenience, from saving on flights and accommodations to less crowds at tourist attractions, cooler temperatures and sorter lines. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Traveling in fall is lit...which is why I figured I would help get your wheels turning for the best destinations you can travel this fall with the family for the low low.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
1) Burlington, Vermont </h3>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I can't explain the beauty of Vermont during fall. It's honestly something you have to see for yourself, the leaves changing colors, the crisp air, the views across the water and the little town charm is actually to die for.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If you're traveling with family there's something for everyone from shopping, to harvest festivals to breweries Vermont has it all.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Be sure to visit Shelburne Orchards and Farm.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<h3 style="text-align: center;">
2) Asheville, North Carolina </h3>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If you're on the east coast (or even if your not) and you're looking for amazing mountain views, Asheville is it. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This booming hipster town mixes good vibes with down south charm and an outdoorsy feel.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So take a deep whiff of apple cider, listen to the bluegrass sounds while you cozy up in your favorite sweater and enjoy fall in all of its glory on the mountain side.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
3) Scottsdale Arizona </h3>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Often looked at as a playground for the well off Scottsdale actually becomes much more affordable for us regular folk in the "off season". Hotel prices take a dive and the crowds die down in the fall making much more pleasurable.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Hiking, golfing, the Scottsdale ArtWalk and more are all at your fingertips.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
4) Chicago Illinois </h3>
<div style="text-align: center;">
While Chicago is beautiful in the summer...beating the heat of summer and avoiding the freezing temperatures of winter means fall is the best time to visit the city.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Visit The Bean surrounded by the autumn leaves, dine on delicious food and enjoy the buzz of the city.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
5) DISNEY WORLD</h3>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Why Disney in the fall? </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
WHY DISNEY IN THE FALL?!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Because it's DISNEY!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The weather is literally perfect, as the humidity has started to die down. You're there just in time for the International food and wine festival at Epcot and you get to take part in the Disney Not So Spooky Halloween if you have littles. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This trip is perfect for couples looking to relax or families ready to take in the fall feels.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
6) Denver Colorado</h3>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTCxufaiUuwFgOGK0kXdLFiyCveDhl9nJ562aX_8EQsMN2YRFMEWfdnOdRLkW5Hg4zcQYDPE6V0CcofroDuJ68xgclRkBEb1KwUFvGDu6SmaP2lng4JAQJSJNRvP-lRxNVruIp9QQR_J7b/s1600/rocky-mountain-national-park-fall_7639d1aa-f0ae-5102-065b9f0a4db1c732.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1261" data-original-width="1600" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTCxufaiUuwFgOGK0kXdLFiyCveDhl9nJ562aX_8EQsMN2YRFMEWfdnOdRLkW5Hg4zcQYDPE6V0CcofroDuJ68xgclRkBEb1KwUFvGDu6SmaP2lng4JAQJSJNRvP-lRxNVruIp9QQR_J7b/s1600/rocky-mountain-national-park-fall_7639d1aa-f0ae-5102-065b9f0a4db1c732.jpg" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Me personally...i've never had the want to make the trek to Denver. However after seeing a few fall photos of the "mile high city" I may be rethinking things.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Aside from amazing sweeping views of the mountains Denver actually has a lot of fall activities for the family. Including a pumpkin harvest festival, art week an urban holiday market and more.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
7) Paris France</h3>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Ah Paris, my love. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
While Paris (like Disney) is always a good idea there is just something about Paris in the fall.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The crisp air, the fashions (fashion week), the views, the history...the bread (please don't forget the bread). Pairs in the fall just feels amazingly right. My favorite thing to do is walk the streets of the Champs-Elysees as the sun sets.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's pure magic.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
8) Savannah Georgia</h3>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
While this ISN'T where we got Savannah's name it should be on your fall vacation bucket list.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Cooler and calmer than summer and way less crowded this is the perfect time to visit Georgias most beautiful city. Enjoy the culinary festivals, outdoor music and the old world charm of their historic district.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

9) San Francisco California </h3>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now San Francisco in fall is all about attractions.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Theres Fright Fest Six Flags Discovery Kingdom, Wine country tours, The Great Pumpkin Fest at California Great America, The San Francisco Museum of Modern art...I mean the list goes on.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If you're feeling particularly nostalgic you can go visit the "Full House House". </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The opening credits were filmed at the Alamo Square Park.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
As for the actual red door house...it no longer technically exist but if you want to find the house used for exterior shots the address is 1709 Broderick St =D</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
10) Montreal Canada </div>
</h3>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If you can't quite make it to Paris but you want that French feel head to Montreal, it is one of Canadas top tourist destinations, however like most places in fall you will be able to score "off season" deals when it comes to hotels. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Montreal is home to beautiful museums, parks that look beautiful in fall and plenty of French speaking folks to make you feel like you are over seas. The look of Montreal also is amazingly similar to Paris, which I love.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Don't forget to check out the Underground City while you're there.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I hope this helped spark the fall travel bug for you. If you check out ant of these destinations this fall be sure to let me know! Don't forget to tag me in photos on Instagram.</div>

</div>
<div align="center">
<h3>
<b>Instructions:</b></h3>
</div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
1. Boil your pasta till or just before tender and drain, put into a large mixing bowl and DO NOT RINSE. Immediately after transferring into a mixing bowl put about 3 squirts of Italian salad dressing in with the pasta and mix. This prevents the pasta from sticking.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjoeO3OoBXEEZ0X7nX8xM3193tQ4MVHOD2oDg4O8YnKK8zw0IzKMZIv-3auA0KOJz44Tmo9gEEpGWwmpUqrOA9uwzsSqGhkZrgDgYFuSEeZsUsSFid-zSS4UYgcCQ0TgPiL0vDFgt2jT6DM/s1600/IMG_2013.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjoeO3OoBXEEZ0X7nX8xM3193tQ4MVHOD2oDg4O8YnKK8zw0IzKMZIv-3auA0KOJz44Tmo9gEEpGWwmpUqrOA9uwzsSqGhkZrgDgYFuSEeZsUsSFid-zSS4UYgcCQ0TgPiL0vDFgt2jT6DM/s400/IMG_2013.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br /></div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
2. Cut up all veggies, you can actually do this while the pasta noodles are cooking up =) I like to dice mine into smaller pieces. I feel like its better than having things (like peppers and onions) cut into strips which become bulky. With diced pieces every scoop can contain some super good veggies and your not struggling to get them on your plate.<br />
<br /></div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
3. Cut each piece of shrimp depending on size into 2 or 3 pieces. You do this for two reasons...1. IT SPREADS THE SHRIMP...shrimp can be expensive so you want to make sure you make that ish stretch lol especially if your making it for other people and 2. because again it will make it easier to scoop and everyone will get a fair share.<br />
<br /></div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
4. Mix all this yummy goodness into the bowl together and top with some pepper to taste.<br />
<br /></div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
5. Add the rest of your Italian dressing =) I use the whole damn bottle almost LOL but add to your liking.<br />
<br /></div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
6. Cover and pop in the fridge. It taste the best if you let it sit over night because all the yummy goodness can really marinate together. However if your in a pinch for time 2 hours will do.<br />
<br /></div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
<b>YOUR DONE!</b><br />
<b><br /></b>
<b><br /></b></div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
That's it, super simple the whole thing should take you 15-20 mins *does dance* <br />
<br /></div>
<div align="center">
</div>
<div align="center">
If you try this don't forget to take a picture and tag me on instagram <a href="http://www.instagram.com/theprettygirlsguide" target="_blank">@theprettygirlsguide</a> and hashtag #Prettygirlsguide. I would love to see how yours turns out!</div>

<tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Before and After</td></tr>
</tbody></table>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
OF COURSE!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now when your a blogger like me, posting the perfect Instagram picture is even more important. It can literally be the difference between getting noticed by a brand and securing work or going the entire month without a check coming in...and no one wants that.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I've gotten numerous questions from my followers, blogger and non bloggers alike about what filters an programs I use to edit and in general how I get the "perfectly edited pictures" I post.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
While I wouldn't call my pictures anywhere close to perfect lol I have dropped a few tips here and there but finally (because y'all kept asking) I decided to spill ALL THE BEANS behind my "perfect" instagram pics here.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<a name='more'></a><br /><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
DISCLAIMER: By no means am I a master photo editor nor am I classically trained. I've simply picked up a few things over my time blogging and use a lot of trial and error.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
With that being said...here we go.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Getting the perfect Instagram picture is actually easier said than done. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
When I'm taking my photos a lot goes into consideration. Long gone are my days of just pointing and shooting and being happy with the image. I'm out here thinking about my angles, what colors work best with my skin tone, what time of day it is, how my lighting will look the whole nine.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
WHY EDIT?</h3>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Now I'm sure after all that your asking yourself "well Deanna...if you do all that why do you have to edit?" </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The short answer is, the pictures I take can still be trash until I give it a once over in the editor.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Don't believe me? Take a look.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This image was taken outdoors on my patio last year, during the day in natural light.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There is NO WAY this would have been a good image to put on Instagram to represent a brand. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's too blue, the product isn't clear and it would have gotten no likes.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But throw a little editing magic on that bih and wala...magic.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The resulting image is 10 times better, you can see the true color of the product, there's no blue hue and things are clear. This image would have gotten 100% more likes than the original, all because I edited. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Does this answer your question?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So now your next question right? </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
"What do I need to edit?"</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
YOU DON'T NEED ALL THAT FANCY SHIT!</h3>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Ok...maybe I didn't need to be that aggressive in my title for this section but I'm being super honest. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If you're a regular person just trying to look cute on the gram or you're a newbie blogger (without a photography focus) looking to build your following, you really don't need anything fancy.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So what do you need?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Your phone and some good apps. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
DAS IT. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
100% of my Instagram photos are taken with my iPhone 7. While I do have a Cannon DSLR, I hate it. It's a hassle to carry around, it's annoying to switch the settings when the lighting changes and the time it takes to set it up to when trying to get photos of myself when I don't have a helper is a waste. </div>

Now I will say your pictures have the ability to come out even better than mine if you have the iPhone 8 and above but hey you work with what you got. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Other things you may need of photos:</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
-A homie to take your pix</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
-A mini tripod for your phone</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
-A remote to take your pix if you are by yourself</div>

<h3 style="text-align: center;">
WHAT DO YOU USE TO EDIT?</h3>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Ok, heres what your really here for right?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Every blogger you ask this will give you a different answer. What you use to edit will be influenced by your blogging niche, personal editing style and how much you're trying to correct in your photos.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I personally don't do any heavy editing, no blemish removal, no smoothing, no shaping, no well...pretty much nothing =/. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Mainly because I'm lazy but also because I try to keep my images as true to life as possible and my editing is primarily used to enhance colors and correct them. When pictures are taken it's like bits of real color get sucked out...so I infuse them back in.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My main editing app is VSCO. Within the app i've created my own signature "filter" if you will. Which is why most of my pictures on my feed have the same hue.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEipCJif00UKggz1Kz1jNVpJRXtY-iALFESccKVRE8RSsRBT9px7qkwHr-dOq4c6b61PpHDJN94oMTzgMp-Q_x5H3Si2FkJG4WkCuqZBk18k0Gb5ZF1zff7OQw4I20rJgPqYBpR9gO1aLA7m/s1600/IMG_8406.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1334" data-original-width="750" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEipCJif00UKggz1Kz1jNVpJRXtY-iALFESccKVRE8RSsRBT9px7qkwHr-dOq4c6b61PpHDJN94oMTzgMp-Q_x5H3Si2FkJG4WkCuqZBk18k0Gb5ZF1zff7OQw4I20rJgPqYBpR9gO1aLA7m/s1600/IMG_8406.jpg" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I used a mixture of their presets shown above, VSCO has a bunch of these you can choose from. Some are free and some cost but its worth the investment if you are looking to have that "similar look" on your profile. Along with those presets I add my own personal preferences for saturation, temperature, highlights etc.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I'll admit it took me a good while to decide what I liked and a bit longer to find something that worked with most of my images, but once I found it I was set. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Making the choice to stick to this filter also dictated what type of things show up in the background of most of my images. You'll notice that I now stick to mostly light, green, blue or grey backgrounds-- which I actually love but please beware that choosing a set filter could change your posting style.</div>

For this photo I decreased the temperature to get rid of the tan hue, then upped the saturation a bit so I was not so pale. I also brightened up the photo to bring out the true colors of the rug which you can purchase <a href="http://bit.ly/2OanxMY" target="_blank">HERE</a> if you like it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>A few other apps I like are:</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Unfold-</b> This is for insta stories, it helps you add special features and layouts. I have not started using it yet however I've seen a lot of bloggers use it and I love what you can create.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Preview-</b> This app actually helps me organize my Instagram photos, I'm able to arrange and move them around until they are in an order I think will look good on my feed. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Yes, I think that much into it lol</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Apps that other bloggers love to edit with but I don't or rarely use are: </b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Color Story-</b> Adjust and crop your photo, change the orientation, add effects.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Face tune-</b> This app lets you do all the "instagram model" type things, need a little nip and tuck, a little smooth and pinch. You can do that all here.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Lightroom-</b> With the power of photoshop at your fingertips your options really are limitless. I hear other bloggers rant and rave about this all the time.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Snapseed- </b>Much like lightroom and color story it allows you to add effects and change the majority of your image to your liking.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Canva- </b>This is more so for making promotional materials or graphics for your instagram stories but its still a helpful thing to have in your back pocket for use. </div>

WHAT TO AVOID</h3>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgfOQHTRJxWDhZrWgeIrCJ0AdIFEMqFQh1tbaG1fgUxCPJickDAFutDMJyskwljvNwpmyctKY4nb-mTDUNgja0CSX__e3yOe3I3oauAX2dLtQr016J0QoHD2R7E7Y3PGKrnPlSuksWPYazz/s1600/6D7270B9-459A-4F44-800B-03BB3AB0F92C.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgfOQHTRJxWDhZrWgeIrCJ0AdIFEMqFQh1tbaG1fgUxCPJickDAFutDMJyskwljvNwpmyctKY4nb-mTDUNgja0CSX__e3yOe3I3oauAX2dLtQr016J0QoHD2R7E7Y3PGKrnPlSuksWPYazz/s1600/6D7270B9-459A-4F44-800B-03BB3AB0F92C.JPG" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
When shooting images and editing there are a few things that I like to avoid. These tips help with initial image quality for me anyways-- again it depends on your style. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Direct sunlight-- </b>This is a killer for me, because of my skin tone if I shoot anywhere between the hours of 11:30-2 with direct light I come out far too yellow/tan. Which is a complete bitch to edit.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Being still- </b>This is the easiest way of getting 50 of the same shitty images. Try to naturally move when you shoot. It really betters your chance of getting the right angle or lighting that will make editing easier in the long run.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Not asking for a second opinion- </b>when in doubt ask a friend, nine times out of ten they will let you know if your photo edits look good or not. I actually have 3 folks I go to when trying to pick and edit photos lol they never steer me wrong. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

I hope this helped all my budding bloggers to be and that you have a better idea of what apps to use and for what. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In the comments let me know if you currently edit your photos and if so what apps you use. Also if your not big into editing your photos how do you feel about bloggers editing their photos? Do you think that they shouldn't and they should try to be more realistic or do you think it all comes along with the job? </div>

Ok guys its been a long time since I've tried a new recipe...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But a few weeks back when I attempted to switch to a more "health conscious" diet, I felt the need to shake things up a bit and kick my typical meal ideas to the curb.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So I started racking my brain for new dinner ideas that incorporated fresh veggies, whole grains and unprocessed meat but still packed a punch in the flavor department.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So what did I decide on? </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Let it cook for about 4-5 minuets partially drain and separate from water. You can save some of the water to use as an add in for broth later in the recipe if you like your ramen to have more "juice"</div>

2. While the Ramen is boiling, chop or slice all of your vegetables. You can add others that suit your taste such as onions and bock choi or anything else that tickles your fancy.<br />

5. In wok or pan combine vegetables as well as chicken and add in some sauce and simmer. Then add in your ramen and mix all ingredients.<br />
<br />
6. If you are adding an egg this would be a great time to boil it and have it ready for serving.<br />
<br />
IN THE MEANTIME<br />
<br />
7. If you like more broth add water reserve from noodles to the pan/wok and taste.<br />
<br />
<br />
<b>BAM!! YOUR DONE!!</b><br />
<br />
Scoop out your ramen and serve with a hard boiled egg sliced in half if your fancy.<br />
<br />
You will absolutely LOVE this recipe and it will have everyone you make it for begging for more (trust me).<br />
<br />
Once you taste this you will never go back to your college Ramen. This is super easy to make and a great switch up to the typical dinner idea.<br />
<br />
If you try this recipe let me know! I would love to hear if you liked it and what tweaks you made.<br />
<br />
Until Next Time,<br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
For as far back as I can remember I have always LOVED protective styles! Box braids, faux locs, goddess braids, kinky twist, feeder braids, crochet styles...I could go on.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

I would beg my mom to do my box braids when I was younger and then sit patiently for hours on a Sunday just so I could go to school on Monday fresh AF and braids swinging only to be crying the next day from an itchy & burning scalp.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
End result...a protective style that lasted all of 48 hours and a pissed mom. </div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
Here's what you do..</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
1) Grab your desired synthetic hair from your local store or amazon etc. Yup Amazon sells hair, if your looking for some great deals try these links HERE, HERE & HERE.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
2) Fill a bowl large enough to fit your hair with lukewarm water. Please be mindful that you may need to do this in stages, soaking a few packs or one pack of hair at a time depending on the size of your bowl.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
3) Pour 1/2 cup -1 cup of Apple Cider Vinegar into the bowl of water and stir to mix. </div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
4) Add synthetic hair to the mixture in the bowl and let sit for 10-15 minutes.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
5) You will notice a white film in the water, at that point remove the hair from the bowl.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
6) Rinse the hair with lukewarm water.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
7) Squeeze hair to remove excess water and hang to dry.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
8) Repeat process as needed for as much hair as you have.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>

FINAL THOUGHTS</h3>

THIS ISH WORKS WONDERS!</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
Personally, I didn't have high hopes the first time I tried the rinse but much to my surprise after installing my hair I had no reaction. </div>

It was pretty much the equivalent of me wearing human hair. I was and still am super impressed, and highly suggest giving the Apple Cider Vinegar method a try. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
If you have already installed your hair and are having issues with scalp irritation but don't want to take your protective style out there is still hope for you. You can make a smaller version of the same solution and use a spray bottle to target your scalp to get relief then follow up by washing your hair with the solution to gain added relief, but remember to rinse your hair very well.</div>

If you've been following my stories over on <a href="http://www.instagram.com/theprettygirlsguide" target="_blank">Instagram</a> you'll know that getting my nails done has become one of my self care routines during my me time and journey back to myself since having a kid. </div>

What I didn't know was that you all would love the nail designs I picked. So much so that every time I post them I get tons of questions on everything from where I get my nails done, to how I pick my designs and if I can send you examples of nail designs. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Since I can't do that for everyone I decided to compile a list of 40 of my favorite nail designs for y'all for all different occasions and personal styles.</div>

Apparently starting an urban garden has become all the rage and I love it!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
When I shared a glimpse of my balcony urban garden on IG last year, I was surprised at how many of you reached out wanting tips on how to start an urban garden of your own.<br />

If I would have known folks were interested in this I would have shared how to start an urban garden ages ago as this isn't a new practice for me its actually a little hobby. Every place i've lived since I moved out on my own has had some form of urban garden. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Some years are better than others and what i've grown has changed but i'm supper happy to share how to start an urban garden with you all!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
I started gardening early on as a kid with my mom, we had a little bit of space on the side of our home that we used for planting. It was a tradition that suck with me which is part of the reason why I still do it now.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<h1>
WHY START AN URBAN GARDEN</h1>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
There are plenty of reasons why you should start an urban garden but here are my top 3</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<h2>
1) Family time</h2>
<h2>
</h2>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's a great way to spend time with your littles. You get to be outside, they get to play in the dirt, you can sneak in some lessons about the importance of planting your own food or responsibility and pride in their work since they will be helping raise the crops.<br />
<br />
It's a win win.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<h2>
2) It taste better</h2>
<h2>
</h2>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Have you ever had fresh out the ground food...I mean just plucked fresh.<br />
SUPER FRESH.<br />
<br />
It taste so much better.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<h2>
3) Control what goes in your body</h2>
<h3>
</h3>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This may be the best benefit, while growing your own you have no worries about pesticides or other chemicals, you can make your own compost.<br />
You have complete control. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<h1>
HOW TO START AN URBAN GARDEN</h1>
<div>
The outline you have all been waiting for.<br />
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<h2>
1) Pick your space</h2>
<div>
First thing first is to figure out where you're going to put your garden. Will it be built up on your balcony? Will you grow herbs in your windowsill? Will you go a little bigger and grab a plot of land at a community garden? </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Space is one of the biggest deciding factors in how the next steps of building your garden will play out.<br />
<br /></div>
<h2>
</h2>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<h2>
2) Select your plants</h2>
<div>
Once you figure out the space you will be working with you can better decide what plants you will grow. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
If all you have is a windowsill there is no need to go grab seeds for corn. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Also if this is your first time taking a stab at growing your own fruits or vegetables, you may want to stick with some of the easier crops like lettuce, garlic, potatoes, peas and cucumbers. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Fun fact you can actually grow lettuce from the stem of lettuce you purchased from the store. Basil and cilantro can also be regrown from clippings.<br />
<br /></div>
<h2>
</h2>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<h2>
3) Find your planters + soil</h2>
<div>
There are many different options for planting your crops. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
In the past i've used recycled wine boxes as seen in the pic of my balcony from 2016.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I've also planted directly in the ground, for this you'll need to ensure your soil is appropriate for plants and do a fair amount of readying it. My favorite way to plant thus far has been the wine boxes mainly for the visual.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
But there are so many different options, especially if you have a small space or want to get creative. Cinder blocks, hanging shoe holders and more, take a look at some examples below. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Just keep in mind when planting that whatever "potted option" you use it has drainage as soil that retains too much water can kill your plants.<br />
<br />
Also look into moisture controlled soil =)</div>
<div>

4) Grow vertical + give space</h2>
<h2>
</h2>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
When you start an urban garden 9 time out of 10 you wont have much space to take up, so planting things far apart or all over the place isn't an option. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This is where you get crafty in "giving space" for your crops to grow. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
The best thing to do is grow up. Ensure that your plants are maybe planted in levels or that planters are stacked so you can maximize space.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Another great idea is to tie tall growing plants to standing gate or railing that way you can dictate the direction and where the plant will grow.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<h2>
5) Water well</h2>
<h2>
</h2>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But not too much...but def enough.<br />
<br />

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<br />
I can not stress this enough, learn your plants preferred watering schedule...or should I say soil conditions.<br />
<br />
Then when the hot summer months approach make sure to check your plants daily, sometimes twice a day. Because even though plants do need hours of direct sunlight, they can dry up, wilt and die quickly in the summer heat.</div>

<h2>
-Plant what you will actually use</h2>
<h2>
</h2>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Don't over do it, I know having a lush garden with dozens of plants is a beautiful. But what are you going to do with bunches and bunches of radishes sis when you don't even eat them!?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<h2>
-Plant things in groups that will grow well together</h2>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For example with herbs sage, rosemary and thyme all do well in fairly dry soil. So potting them together would not be an issue. However, if you were to add basil to that same pot which needs more moisture you could run into issues when trying to keep them alive all at once.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
Plant the below groups together if you wish...since they're friends.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Group 1: Cilantro, Basil, Tarragon, Parsley</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Group 2: Thyme, Oregano, Lavender, Rosemary, Sage</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<h2>
-Mint does not like friends</h2>
<h2>
</h2>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's a bully lol it does not do well with other plants and will over grow/dominate you planting space.<br />
<br />
Keep that hoe to herself.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<h2>
-Pay attention to your seed packs directions</h2>
<h2>
</h2>
</div>

I can't stress this point enough as well. Those little packets will give you SO MUCH info, read them before you buy your seeds.<br />
<br />
You can learn how long it will take for the plants to grow, when you should start planting (aka if you missed the planting window in your region), what conditions they need and if you need to start them indoors.<br />
<br />
All from that little packet.<br />

-Don't be afraid to fake it till you make it</h2>

</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Not everyone (even me at times) is good at starting plants off and sometimes it can just come down to your environment and the growing conditions. In any case, don't feel obligated to grow a plant from a seed. There is no shame in getting a pre grown, mature plant and putting it in the ground.<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<h2>
-Have patience</h2>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This is a marathon not a sprint.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Gardening is a process from planting, to care, to harvesting (notice the steps before the harvest lol) So you have to be in it for the long haul. There are some crops that you could plant the seed in April and not harvest until July.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Matter of fact if you are the type that likes to sprint you may want to refer to the point above as starting with pre grown plants may be the BEST thing you can do, especially for plants like tomatoes or peppers which need a good amount of time to mature<br />
<br />
If you have any questions don't hesitate to ask and if you start an urban garden of your own be sure to tag me in a picture on instagram so I can see it!<br />

Until Next Time,<br />

After having Baby Bean I became a snacking queen. Mainly because when you have a new baby in your arms, it's pretty damn difficult to find time to eat anything...let alone a healthy full meal. </div>

How To Pick The Best Fruit</h2>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>The darker the berry</b>: the sweeter the juice, but not only that. Darker berries indicate that the fruit is holding many health benefits and while growing was able to keep out environmental stressors.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Organic is good:</b> this means more antioxidants sometimes 20-40% more on average! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Frozen or fresh: </b>both are best! As fruit ages they will all lose some of its value however choosing frozen does not mean you will lose out on nutrition. Reach for the organic bag and you will get just as much value. </div>
<h2 style="text-align: center;">
How To Make Your Fruit Last</h2>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's no secret that fresh fruit can turn bad quickly, however there is a way to lock in the freshness</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Upon first getting the fruit WASH IT! But not just any wash, tossing it in some water with some apple cider vinegar, will not only give it a deep clean and clear off any dirt it will also keep your fruit from going bad so fast. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Also remember to check the recommended storing options for your fruit, as sitting some fruit together will make them go bad faster due to the natural gasses they let off. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I hope this post helped and that you are on your way to picking up the 10 healthiest fruits you need to start eating. In the comments below let me know what fruits you will be picking up on your next shopping trip.</div>

Theres no worse feeling then wanting to do something really bad, but being horribly afraid that you won't ever be able to do it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Thats exactly how I felt about traveling abroad...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
While cost was a factor, my biggest fear was that I would not be able to last though the plane ride to my destination without having a panic attack and completely losing my shit thousands of feet in the air with no escape.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But at the same time, I didn't want to let that fear hold me back.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
The downside of my anxiety is that one of my biggest triggers is not having control of my situation. Which no matter how much you plan and prepare for, I have come to learn is pretty much a given when it comes to taking a 6 hour plane ride and traveling to a foreign country.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So what how do you do it? </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
How do you keep from losing your shit in front of hundreds of strangers on a plane, over an ocean with literally nowhere to go?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In my case on the flight to Paris, I didn't. Thats right I actually did wind up having a panic attack half way through the flight from Iceland to Paris...and it was bad, like really bad. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
But that leads me into tip number 1 on concurring Panic attacks while flying.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgTrJSa6scji6sbrSZZX0mQ6sXU1EovlVry2S0NtorbOGrOxWnBrA7vaJVVxzEgDEkiFh0v2NXtvWL1VIClQl-K6ah4U9cPoWLnwtjcifKW7SjJRocTx8Qi6KCIK5DuZx4NRfWkvK73Jzyf/s1600/acceptance-peace-686x350.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgTrJSa6scji6sbrSZZX0mQ6sXU1EovlVry2S0NtorbOGrOxWnBrA7vaJVVxzEgDEkiFh0v2NXtvWL1VIClQl-K6ah4U9cPoWLnwtjcifKW7SjJRocTx8Qi6KCIK5DuZx4NRfWkvK73Jzyf/s1600/acceptance-peace-686x350.jpg" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
1) Acceptance & Mentally Preparing Before Your Flight</h3>
<div style="text-align: center;">
As much as I would have loved to live in this ideal world where I make it through a 8 hours flight without even a glimmer of a panic attack. I know myself better than that, I was literally putting myself in a situation that was oozing with triggers. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I had to accept even when just booking my flight that "hey...there is going to be the large possibility of me having a panic attack" and I had to get very comfortable with that uncomfortable reality.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
While this may not actually seem like a helpful tip, there is a lot to be said about facing the reality of your situation and people always say acceptance is half the battle. If I come to terms with the possibility, I can better prepare for it. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Making sure I have my gum (my way of coping with attacks), ensuring that I destress in the days leading up to the flight, conducting positive self talk about my vacation and the flight and normalizing my panic attacks.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
2) Having A Support System</h3>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If you're not traveling alone, make sure that the person you're traveling with knows about your panic attacks and anxiety because there is nothing worse than you losing your shit and then person next to you losing their shit too because you start to sweat and shake uncontrollably.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You're also going to want to ensure (if you can) that you really trust that person and that they are a good personal support system because sometimes when all else fails and you're deep into a panic attack. Having someone there to coach you through it can really be the most important factor in bringing you back down trust me...I know.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
About halfway through the second flight to Paris (around 4 am), I felt it happening. It started off simple, I felt like I was having a hard time breathing. The air suddenly felt thick and I wasn't able to get enough air into my lungs without a struggle, I tried to adjust the AC flow but it didn't help. Then my hands started to sweat, my stomach started to turn and the next thing I knew I was having tremors that I couldn't control.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I was having a full blown panic attack one worse that I had had in over a year. I was in the window seat, trapped and scared my boyfriend was next to me just waking up from a nap and I had to tell him. I was embarrassed, could barely talk without my voice shaking from the tremors that were lasting anywhere from 5 to 30 seconds at a time. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I couldn't control it.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
He put his hand on mine and told me I was going to be fine, he started talking to me helping me focus on breathing and not trying to fight the tremors. He...was amazing, in my most vulnerable moments he helped me not feel afraid, he helped me feel normal and not scared.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
3) Distractions</h3>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A huge factor at getting past my panic attack on the flight was distractions. There comes a point during panic attacks I've now learned that even your personal distractions (my gum) no longer work. You're honestly just too far gone for you to be your answer.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This was another way my travel buddy was a huge help in the 15 minutes (seems like a lifetime) or so that my panic attack was at it's worst. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">They distracted me, once it was realized that holding my hand and breathing wasn't working they swooped in with plan B. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Rock Paper Scissors.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I know it sounds silly...but that was the point. We had to get my mind off of what was currently going on...but how? They challenged me to a Rock Paper Scissors battle. At first I didn't really give in, I didn't try to play because I was so focused on my attack. But once I realized he was starting to win...I got competitive, I wanted to win, I wanted to try. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It became more about guessing what they were going to throw out than worrying about the panic attack and about 5 minuets into the battle, I had won and the panic attack was gone.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The key was not putting energy into the panic attack. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<br /></div>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
4) Don't sleep before your flight </h3>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Listen...major key...cloth talk lol</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
STAY THE FUCK UP all night (or day) before your flight if you have to so you can sleep through every ounce of your flight. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
On the flight to Paris I made the huge mistake of being very well rested before my flight, so when I actually got on the plane I was lit up like a Christmas tree on December 24th. Completely awake and all the way on, nothing made me sleepy. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Not the plane ride, not reading, nothing.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I was completely aware and my brain was on a thousand, which I think helped spark my attack. On the way back from Paris however I stayed up packing and didn't go to sleep until about 2 hours before I needed to be up and on the way to the airport.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Outcome: I was knocked on the entire flight back. The only time I actually woke up was to change planes when we landed in Iceland. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It was absolutely perfect.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
5) Emergency Medicine </h3>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Long flights may be the only time I feel as though having anxiety medicine is appropriate for me and even then its only for emergencies.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I had my Dr prescribe me a small dose of pills about a week before I left. It was nice to know that I could have them in my back pocket just incase things became to much to handle but the idea of going on a new medicine and reading the side effects of what I was prescribed had me dreading taking them.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
My personal hold up about medicating my anxiety has always been the side effects, this was no different. Had things gotten really out of control I would have used them but I was completely committed to going at it non medicated.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<h3 style="text-align: center;">
6) Don't get Drunk</h3>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Have you ever had a panic attack drunk?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I mean I haven't but I can only imagine it to be hell.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I know people often use alcohol help soothe our nerves and relax but one too many sips and a relaxed mind can turn into a belligerent mess so quickly. Not to mention the possibility of turbulence...air sickness nope. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I shall pass and I suggest you do too. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Plus what if you actually need to take your emergency medicine we talked about? Alcohol and medicine...on a plane? This picture we're painting just keeps getting worse lol.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Lets just save the drinks as a celebratory thing for once we land k?<br />
<br />
<h3>
BONUS</h3>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
When the plane takes off, try having something in your hands to hold on to and rub. If that is not possible try stretching as soon as the plane beings to go into the air this will help your body tense and then relax which will ultimately give you a sense of relaxation and aid in relieving you of your anxiety.<br />
<br />
If you're new to trying coping methods that don't involve medicine for your panic attacks. PLEASE read my previous blog were I outline 7 daily practices you can use to ease anxiety and combat your panic attacks when they arise. You can find that blog post <a href="http://www.theprettygirlsguide.com/2016/08/battling-anxiety-and-how-to-over-come.html">HERE</a>.<br />
<br />
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Hopefully these tips will help those of you planning or dreaming of an amazing vacation and the only thing holding you up is the fear of that long long flight. People with anxiety at the end of the day are just regular people and as long as we have the right tools at our disposal we can make it though anything.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Without a doubt, there will be surprises, mishaps and things will not always but up to you and on your time but there is no reason that you should feel as though you can't live a fulfilling and fun life because of anxiety. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Its just a small piece of who you are, not the deciding factor on what you can do.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
While I whole heartedly believe that people should mature and grow throughout the course of the year and their lives. The whole idea of "new year, new me" has always been irksome to me. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Why must you wait to the new year to become a new you?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
What exactly are you changing?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Why must you announce it?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
WHY ARE YOU LYING?!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
More often than not even uttering the phrase is a clear indication that ain't nothing fittin to change for you patna. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Instead of becoming a new person next year, a better focus of time and energy would be put into goal setting. Especially after the year we had in 2020 setting some kind of goal or intention means a lot to helping keep your sanity. We all deserve better than what we had at this point.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Check out my tips below on how to goal set for 2021 to help ensure you have the most prosperous year yet! </div>

<b>1) WRITE THAT SHIT DOWN AND WATCH HOW REAL IT GETS!</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Writing down anything-- no matter if it's your goals, a shopping list or what you plan to say to that certain someone who needs to be set straight (wait...personal moment lol sorry). Writing things down makes them real, it gives you something tangible to hold yourself accountable to and it makes you more likely to accomplish them. It's been shown that writing goals down makes you 42% more likely to carry them out.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">I recently created my <b><a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/919934594/pretty-girl-goal-getter-checklists?ref=shop_home_active_1&crt=1">Goal Getter Worksheets</a></b> which you can get <b><a href="https://www.etsy.com/listing/919934594/pretty-girl-goal-getter-checklists?ref=shop_home_active_1&crt=1">HERE</a></b> to help everyone become more intentional with and actually reach their goals. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXTXYFyD-OCITkEqtFToXtALnffgsScubVixlPUstbUcocdDq4tVNa-B-Nt7HrhoTAbhXbifG4UOmFMEipIoRDKY9e0mcG0cbj_gVZiQQFG75Pb-Wq2iMJkWgZOKmXibeoDXG7LOd5wsKM/s1080/IMG_9586.PNG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1080" data-original-width="1080" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjXTXYFyD-OCITkEqtFToXtALnffgsScubVixlPUstbUcocdDq4tVNa-B-Nt7HrhoTAbhXbifG4UOmFMEipIoRDKY9e0mcG0cbj_gVZiQQFG75Pb-Wq2iMJkWgZOKmXibeoDXG7LOd5wsKM/s16000/IMG_9586.PNG" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Using the same methods in these worksheets was how I was able to plan for and make my entire yearly corporate salary in 4 months from being an influencer!

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;"><b><br /></b></div><div style="text-align: center;">
<b>2) S.M.A.R.T Goals </b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Many have heard of S.M.A.R.T goals they are goals that are Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant and Time-Bound. Using this method when setting goals helps you narrow things down from the big picture to the real deal goal. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
For example instead of having a goal of "seeing the country" your goal could be to "to have completed my road trip across the country by December 25th 2021". Which hits every point of the S.M.A.R.T goal method above.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>3) Attainable Goals v.s. Aspirational Goals </b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
While this may be completely opposite of what the A in S.M.A.R.T goals stands for. I personally believe that you should set goals that you not only believe are attainable. But you should also create goals that are Aspirational in the fact that they motivate and push you to be more. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Don't just focus on your strengths but also focus on building beyond your weaknesses. Give yourself a goal that will really keep you up at night. No matter if thats because you really want it or if it's because it drives you to be better and accomplish what seemed like a distant reality. Because when you do, you'll feel that much more empowered. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhE_66U9BwLlJvMdXs_-PVN7WhK2S19yU0zJBU7MH1LyhvaofiDngdN-tLDKSGxN9jHNqk4c9Hfs_Q3Ose-SCgLHaBil-E8RsTOqyb1bSTPXrGXfnvsC0gQMDqJ-Fj8tB-9jZnPdgbpL4X-/s1600/taking-steps-copy.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="434" data-original-width="650" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhE_66U9BwLlJvMdXs_-PVN7WhK2S19yU0zJBU7MH1LyhvaofiDngdN-tLDKSGxN9jHNqk4c9Hfs_Q3Ose-SCgLHaBil-E8RsTOqyb1bSTPXrGXfnvsC0gQMDqJ-Fj8tB-9jZnPdgbpL4X-/s1600/taking-steps-copy.jpg" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>4) STEP BY STEP</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
You can't walk before you crawl. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
More often then not people make a goal with no idea of how they are going to achieve it. MAJOR KEY...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Once you write your goal, write the details steps of what you need to do to make it happen. Not only will this help you make it happen but it will also put things in perspective. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The biggest killer of an amazing goal is no damn plan. Write down your steps.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>5) Positivity Is Key</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Speak positivity into your goals not only when you talk about them but when you write them down. Write from a place of positive thought and not negative thought. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
What do I mean?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Instead of writing down a goal of "i want to reduce the loss of contracts in my business" try "I will hold on to all existing contracts and increase what I have by 25%." or instead of "I don't want to be broke" try "I will increase my savings by 100%"</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Wording is important ya know.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><br /></b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>6) Accountability Partner </b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
When it really comes down to it no matter how you slice it, sticking to goals is hard af. No matter if they are fitness, business, financial, relationship, life or personal. One great thing to have (not with all goals but some) is a accountability partner. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
A person that will check in on you and make sure you are still doing what you need to in order to keep moving towards your finish line. Then when you're not, kick your butt in gear and make sure you get back on track.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Find a good one and get to work!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">I sincerely hope that this blog post has helped put things in perspective and you will take these tips to help you craft a beautiful and intentional 2021. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
In the comments below let me know one of your goals for 2021?</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Until Next Time,</div>

Happy New Year</div>

When I teased out my milk bath maternity shoot in my Instastories. Folks. Went. Crazy.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I received so many questions on how I did it and an overwhelming excitement to see how things turned out.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

Well i'm happy to say...the final product was more stunning than I could have ever imagined. But, I can't possibly take full credit. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
None of this could have been possible without my amazing photographer <a href="https://www.instagram.com/elyrosephotography/" target="_blank">Jessica of Ely Rose Photography</a> who was willing to risk her camera and her safety (literally hovering over my tub) to get the perfect shot and help my milk bath vision come to life...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
</div>
<a name='more'></a><div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So, I have to say if you're in the DMV you need to book Jessica for your photography needs! Not only was she able to capture exactly what I was looking for while doing the milk bath portion of the shoot. She also gave amazing direction for our lifestyle, nursery and our bedroom shoots (because trust me we were clueless). </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Oh and she took special care in making us feel comfortable during the entire session which was really helpful during our intimate shots. She was able to bring out our personalities which made the love papa bean and I have for each other & the bean show on camera.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So...with all that being said, 1) book her, here's her <a href="https://www.instagram.com/elyrosephotography/" target="_blank">Instagram</a> 2) lets get into this DIY Milk Bath shoot.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>Oh and be sure to read all the way to the end to see some of our favorite photos from all the sessions in our maternity shoot <3</b></div>

DIY MILK BATH SHOOT</h3>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Surprisingly enough the milk bath is actually pretty simple to make.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
<b>WHAT YOU NEED</b></h3>
<div style="text-align: center;">
-2 Gallons of milk (depending on your tub size)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
- 6 to 10 bunches of flowers (depending on your tub size)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
- Lace robe/bodysuit or fabric to cover up with</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
WHAT TO DO</h3>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>1. PICK + USE FRESH FLOWERS </b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
NOTE- FAKE FLOWERS WILL SINK TO THE BOTTOM. REAL FLOWERS WILL FLOAT!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
So, use real ones.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjiHhmgeJRISVo1J_q-9v5z1_ESbjDwdA1CwUpfZ8pFi9zprmX5N18nBIfKIqHfP1M7RL-8BgaTbv58hdOpVgCUdxh0TqMhGjzzcyy7WuZjDbtGylLufPHYbluKL_XByaVN4FqugYMeUUAR/s1600/IMG_4091.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1600" data-original-width="1200" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjiHhmgeJRISVo1J_q-9v5z1_ESbjDwdA1CwUpfZ8pFi9zprmX5N18nBIfKIqHfP1M7RL-8BgaTbv58hdOpVgCUdxh0TqMhGjzzcyy7WuZjDbtGylLufPHYbluKL_XByaVN4FqugYMeUUAR/s1600/IMG_4091.jpg" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
When it comes to picking flowers you need to select a color scheme. Are you going to go bright and bold or soft and subtle? Either direction make sure you buy flowers in colors that compliment each other and whatever you plan on wearing in your shoot. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
When I got my flowers I made sure to OVER BUY, the worst thing that could happen is you get home and you don't have enough flowers >_< I purchased all my flowers from Wegmans. They have a great selection with low prices (WIN)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>2. PICKING YOUR WARDROBE</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
When it comes to color, you want to pick something either white, cream or you could just go nude. Deciding which works best for you depends on your personal vision for the shoot, what flowers you're picking, your skin tone and your personal comfort level.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Also be very mindful of the weight of your garment as that will effect how it floats or flows in the water. Sticking to something that will either cling to you and lay flat or your skin or flow/sit well in the water are your best options. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Initially I wanted to have a full lace bodysuit like the one above...however when I couldn't find that while last minute shopping, I opted to go for a few cuts of white fabric from my local Joann's Fabrics </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>2. USE NATURAL LIGHT</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This is huge...like really.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If there are any windows in your bathroom be sure to open the shades. If your bathroom is attached to a really bright bedroom like ours is, open the shades in your bedroom and keep the bathroom door open.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
If neither of these are an option, invest in daylight lightbulbs. You can get these from *gasp* Walmart for really cheap. These lightbulbs give the room a bright white light vs the yellow/tan tones typical lightbulbs cast, which would all but ruin your photos.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>3. FILL YOUR TUB</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
This may seem like a given but use warm water (NOT HOT or COLD). Think about it, you're going to sit in this water for a while soooo you kinda want the shit to be comfortable. This ain't no Americas Next Top Model challenge, no need to suffer through cold water.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Also, you want to fill the tub to your preferred water level before you add the milk. Adding water to milk will make it look bubbly, and no one wants that =). Also don't just dump the milk in the tub, add it slowly, stir it around and watch the color of the water change. Once the water is to your color preference, stop adding the milk.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Last tip about the water, don't fill the tub too much. Yes, you want the tub to be full BUT remember you also want to show other parts of your body in the photos too. So don't fill the tub so it covers you completely. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>4. CUT + ARRANGE YOUR FLOWERS</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><br /></b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
It's suggested that you have an assistant place your flowers once you're already in the tub. Of course i'm hardheaded so I didn't do that, I placed my flowers before I got into the tub. It didn't really make a difference except, once I was in the tub there was some rearranging that needed to be done.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>MAJOR KEY:</b> When cutting your flowers leave 2-4 centimeters of stem on each flower, leaving a bit of the stem helps the flowers float better.</div>

<b>5. SHOOT FROM ABOVE</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
The best angle when shooting milk bath photos is always from above. From that perspective you get to see the full beauty of the image. </div>

But really try different positions in the tub to ensure you get a great range of shots. Turn to the side, hold your belly, have your eyes closed, look down, raise your knee out of the water etc. You never know whats going to look great on camera so, switch it up!</div>

Traditions such as packing away our shorts and t shirts for long pants and cozy sweaters, adding an extra blanket to our bed to keep warm, and of course adjusting our skincare routine. </p><p style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; caret-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); counter-reset: list-1 0 list-2 0 list-3 0 list-4 0 list-5 0 list-6 0 list-7 0 list-8 0 list-9 0; cursor: text; fill: inherit; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; font-stretch: inherit; letter-spacing: 0.8px; line-height: inherit; list-style: none; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: center; text-size-adjust: auto; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"><br style="box-sizing: border-box; outline: 0px;" /></p><p style="border: 0px; box-sizing: border-box; caret-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); counter-reset: list-1 0 list-2 0 list-3 0 list-4 0 list-5 0 list-6 0 list-7 0 list-8 0 list-9 0; cursor: text; fill: inherit; font-family: Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; font-stretch: inherit; letter-spacing: 0.8px; line-height: inherit; list-style: none; margin: 0px; outline: 0px; padding: 0px; text-align: center; text-size-adjust: auto; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">But did you know you’re not the only one whose skincare routine could use some adjusting for fall?

We are all grasping for some sense of normalcy and with fall quickly sliding into the picture many of us may be feeling sad that a lot of our fall traditions could be canceled this year due to covid. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiF4CMST7cLMTtB11IuWEM9XfYmB5mqTs8bK-WE0Mu484cvI6qvqNVyv_IdgeFGxqohiPc0zOSExx7_6lrKgorLzCN4au9HAwsz7kO7Ed_LzdYpsSZ0RdgMlrc-_0CBAqkqq2IJJwgXZYRS/s2048/IMG_7844.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="1536" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiF4CMST7cLMTtB11IuWEM9XfYmB5mqTs8bK-WE0Mu484cvI6qvqNVyv_IdgeFGxqohiPc0zOSExx7_6lrKgorLzCN4au9HAwsz7kO7Ed_LzdYpsSZ0RdgMlrc-_0CBAqkqq2IJJwgXZYRS/s16000/IMG_7844.JPG" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><p style="text-align: center;">As for me, i've already come to terms that Halloween will look very different this year (if we even participate) and Thanksgiving is pretty much a no go (though i'm working on some virtual family fun for the day). </p><p style="text-align: center;">However, me being a fall LOVER i'm not willing to give up ALL my fall traditions or the ability to pass those along to my little, so i've pulled together a small list of pandemic safe activities to do with a toddler in hopes to give those that have been locked away for month some fun ideas for fall.</p><span><a name='more'></a></span><h2 style="text-align: center;">Quick Tips </h2><div style="text-align: center;">- Always have your mask</div><div style="text-align: center;">- Bring hand sanitizer </div><div style="text-align: center;">- Call ahead so you know the rules of your location</div><div style="text-align: center;">- Go during the week if you can </div><h2 style="text-align: center;">1) Apple Picking </h2><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5iODu9wiut_QcRARu6iNKq_XHrmV-mIDYP03TrL3sPdMjOr2ec8nnsTQWoeg92wJB0tzryj7kM0BP_WJXOZZdyhW0bMmQleyJ559kNve-FRAxWtBnTmUo-JtiO4uX_1CvfmD41IsvPmOU/s2048/IMG_7806.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="1536" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg5iODu9wiut_QcRARu6iNKq_XHrmV-mIDYP03TrL3sPdMjOr2ec8nnsTQWoeg92wJB0tzryj7kM0BP_WJXOZZdyhW0bMmQleyJ559kNve-FRAxWtBnTmUo-JtiO4uX_1CvfmD41IsvPmOU/s16000/IMG_7806.JPG" /></a></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Who can say no to this fall favorite?!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Apple picking is actually a great fall activity idea especially during covid. It's super simple to remain socially distant since you can see when people are coming and where they are in relation to you in the field and move accordingly. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Bonus-- most pick your own farms are doing ticketed times to lessen the amount of people in the fields and everyone is required to wear a mask.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><h2 style="text-align: center;">2) Fall Scavenger Hunt</h2><div style="text-align: center;">If you are not looking to leave your homes/neighborhood a fall scavenger hunt is a fun way to switch up your normal routine. Before one of your daily walks create a list of fall related things that you could encounter on your walk (different autumn colored leaves, acorns, pine cones) and have your child collect them or call them out when you come across them. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">If you are doing this in your own yard you can even hide a few things like apples, little pumpkins etc to make it even more fun and surprising. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Don't forget to grab a cup of apple cider to drink while you're hunting!</div><h2 style="text-align: center;">3) Sunflower Field</h2><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj6xEhu_v-XBUuVsrc0uKby0WrPxz2M6SqVqRXH29aEKhOSpN9YKVKGEJSjzz-YJozIgY5YY8rD84J50y854MsTWcG-mcXIYKA1Lnuxb0uLMjELWpNX81X2oo9NjxwWjobnRoSKStwLGXH4/s2048/IMG_7974.JPG" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2048" data-original-width="1536" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj6xEhu_v-XBUuVsrc0uKby0WrPxz2M6SqVqRXH29aEKhOSpN9YKVKGEJSjzz-YJozIgY5YY8rD84J50y854MsTWcG-mcXIYKA1Lnuxb0uLMjELWpNX81X2oo9NjxwWjobnRoSKStwLGXH4/s16000/IMG_7974.JPG" /></a></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">We went to the sunflower field last weekend and loved it.</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">The field was the perfect size and with the price of admission ($5.00 per person) you got to cut a stem of flowers to take with you. Much like the apple picking staying socially distant again is easy because you can see where you are in relation to other people. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Generally speaking people were pretty mindful of not coming close to others in the field and creating paths around each other. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Two things to be mindful of. One the sunflower blooming season, its best to do sunflower fields at the start of fall. Two bugs, I would def say wear long sleeves and pants</div><h2 style="text-align: center;">4) Corn/Hay Maze </h2><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhR9x2-MIS3fuGrnH2IzHc_RK_4fBI46XIuH-8EFcfNL7eso70YeRPzf3978CJ0cM1ZkVinNuoLWW3z6DIZb_1SF8jAZV3Hcu8VDRSK8p0aiwp8_ADpEvtPUQR-uDGqHED9KtMypeoVIDUz/s1194/20_MD_FredrickC.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1121" data-original-width="1194" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhR9x2-MIS3fuGrnH2IzHc_RK_4fBI46XIuH-8EFcfNL7eso70YeRPzf3978CJ0cM1ZkVinNuoLWW3z6DIZb_1SF8jAZV3Hcu8VDRSK8p0aiwp8_ADpEvtPUQR-uDGqHED9KtMypeoVIDUz/s16000/20_MD_FredrickC.jpg" /></a></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">This one is a little more up to the readers comfort level. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">While it is outdoors depending on if you are doing hay or corn you can not necessarily see when someone is coming up close to you or if they will be around the next corner. However like most activities mentioned businesses are requiring masks and doing ticketed entry to control crowds. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">If you want to recreate this at home you can buy hay stacks from your local craft or home store and make a small maze in your back yard and have just as much fun with your little!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><h2 style="text-align: center;">5) Pumpkin Picking</h2><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgyd8ud93iyy_TpqFXwMDQqi3JY8X1vhAUimtH21wSQ0KHd8lUM1fBDmoKAof_0yGOMi11osc0cVVgZ7lf-Q3Es5IkL0Tt8L-ZYQHeqbJMp_eJ_ufrTgzrg3CVBhJ9KISeHQKoFa6Dpunxe/s2048/pumpkins-1529604270.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1365" data-original-width="2048" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgyd8ud93iyy_TpqFXwMDQqi3JY8X1vhAUimtH21wSQ0KHd8lUM1fBDmoKAof_0yGOMi11osc0cVVgZ7lf-Q3Es5IkL0Tt8L-ZYQHeqbJMp_eJ_ufrTgzrg3CVBhJ9KISeHQKoFa6Dpunxe/s16000/pumpkins-1529604270.jpg" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">WHATS FALL WITHOUT PUMPKINS!?</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;">Grab the kiddies.

Trust me, when I got pregnant I was just like you. Once I accepted that this pregnancy was a real thing (especially after we found out the gender). Aside from posting a million baby updates on my <a href="http://www.instagram.com/theprettygirlsguide" target="_blank">Instsgram</a> I was ready to head to the baby section of every store and buy EVERYTHING.</div>

<span style="font-size: large;">1) A Crib</span></div>

<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;">While we didn't actually purchase Savannahs beautiful crib (it was gifted by Basset Baby Furniture) we have yet to use it because she was tiny when we brought her home and have been using her dock a tot and her bassinet.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;">We WILL ultimately use her crib (so this isn't a true "regret purchase") and will transitioning her into it in the coming months, however if you're lookin to save a little money and plan on sharing your room with your baby anyway while they are tiny, you can probably put off buying a crib right away.</span></div>

</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;">I must have thought I was going to be feeding an army of babies with the amount of bottles that were in this house. </span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;">I had tons from the Target baby bags then for some reason thought it was a good idea to buy every other type of bottle I saw.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;">But ultimately the joke was on me, Savannah pretty much only liked Tommie Tippie so all those other bottles wound up tossed or donated. If I would have had any sense I would have tested out a few then stocked up on what she ACTUALLY LIKED.</span></div>

</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">

<span style="font-weight: normal;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;">Plus are you HONESTLY going to refill that wipe warmer in the middle of the night when a baby has a wet diaper and then wait for it to warm the wipes before you change your little?</span></div>

<span style="font-weight: normal;">Have you ever bathed a baby?</span></div>

<span style="font-weight: normal;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;">It's not actually possible nor worth your sweet time to try to get a squiggling 7 month old into one of those damn baby robes.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;">Now don't get me wrong they are adorable as hell and you may even see an image of savannah slide across your instagram timeline in one. But trust me, if you do...please know that that image was COMPLETELY staged and she probably had not even taken a bath.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<span style="font-weight: normal;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;">When you get a baby out of a tub your first thought is dry them ASAP so they don't get cold and then get a diaper on them NOW so they don't pee on you. You are not thinking about trying to put them in a robe or trying to keep it on them or tied.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;">Im going to say this.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;">Savannah is 7 months old and JUST wore her first pair of shoes.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;">Reason number 1-- her feet were tiny and she didn't start fitting any baby shoes until recently. So all those adorable boots for winter...smh useless.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;">Reason number 2-- babies don't keep shoes on their feet no matter how snug the elastic or how tight you strap them. Some how they wiggle their way out, its pointless.</span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;">Plus until they are actually walking shoes are pretty much unnecessary and can hinder development.</span></div>

</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;">Another thing I fell victim to stocking up on because I thought they were cute. I saw so many images of perfectly swaddled babies it the most adorable little blanket all over Instagram and just KNEW that I would be one of those moms with a beautifully bundled baby.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;">To this day I still can't swaddle correctly and not long after Baby Bean was born we figured out that the best thing for us were SwaddleMe zip sacks. In one swipe, she was swaddled and we could all move on with our lives.</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;"><br /></span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;">Swaddle Me and swaddles are 10 times easier and just as effective and literally saved our sanity. Shop them via the links below.</span></div>

<span style="font-size: large;">8) Too Many "Good" Baby Clothes</span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;">Funny thing about "good" baby clothes, you wind up never using them. Especially if you have a winter baby like we did. </span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;">Most days it was so cold out that we didn't leave the house and because we were inside we just ran through onesies. So that meant all her cute little sweaters and outfits were left hanging in the closet unless we were taking a picture. </span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;">Even when we did go out it was a hassle trying to get her into all this mess and we often put on just a onesie, some pants and a jacket. </span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;">So by time we reached for the good outfits, she had outgrown them. </span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;"><br /></span></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-weight: normal;">Pro Tip: If you do buy a lot of clothes keep the tags on until baby wears them, so if you don't use them you can just return/exchange for something else.</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
It may not feel like it yet, but spring and summer are coming!</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
With that being said, it's time to book some trips and for anyone that asks I always suggest San Juan. It's one of my favorite places to escape to for a quick getaway because it's close, but gives you the exotic vibe and a bonus is you don't even need a passport.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
However, trying to prepare for a trip to San Juan can be an overwhelming task. Although it's a small island there is so much to do and a lot to consider! </div>

</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
Do you stay on the east side or the west side of the island? Do you hit all the activities or just lay on the beach your whole stay? Should you rent a car or should you "save" a few bucks and just catch cabs? </div>

No need to rack your brain any longer i'm going to let you in on 10 Travel Tips to keep in mind while traveling in San Juan Puerto Rico. Once you have the San Juan travel tips jotted down, don't forget to hop over to my other blog post San Juan Bucket List: Off The Beaten Path. Where I outline some cool not so touristy things that you must do during your stay on the Island (coming soon).</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
1) Cafe Del Angel Is The King Of Dessert </h3>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiq94LZoiYG6-TsVQJMGODunh09EUCKlnMyJE0phFfsigA-iEHTbpEiFMPwyUg7eP4KobN9-54eV0-nydFSNiXUI7XoVOELbDKnREy-2KWG_5LCRvx0uLZB0qQGTHS3uE-6SrCVjVzAOxv7/s1600/IMG_6585.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiq94LZoiYG6-TsVQJMGODunh09EUCKlnMyJE0phFfsigA-iEHTbpEiFMPwyUg7eP4KobN9-54eV0-nydFSNiXUI7XoVOELbDKnREy-2KWG_5LCRvx0uLZB0qQGTHS3uE-6SrCVjVzAOxv7/s1600/IMG_6585.JPG" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
Two words- Fried Cheesecake. </div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
A friend and I went into Cafe Del Angel for Mofongo and stumbled upon the blessing that is Fried Cheesecake, served with the best vanilla ice cream I've ever tasted. Add a little drizzle of chocolate you have heaven on earth.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
2) Rent The Damn Car</h3>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
Not because you think you'll need it, but because you'll regret it if you don't. One, car rentals are super cheap...im talking as low as $7.00 a day if you're not partial to specific companies and when cab rides to the surrounding tourist areas can cost up to $20.00 one way. This is the clear choice when wanting to save money.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
But the real plus is having the freedom to move about the island which means you get to see so much more. Puerto Rico has mountains and caves to explore and the west coast has a completely different vibe but more about that in my next San Juan blog post. </div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
So, get the car don't see yourself short.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
3) Shop Local</h3>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9PwVC9WoNSpsGjT-PONUhbd-0NaKcBlOeNKvnfXOtT6d41ap4kb1YhpJmPR8c-JPs5040eEX7sh8gcK49URigl7FiKwdwx8sDQiTKpODAxgQlLtpPg3vCym48pJR1fUrboJvnFvA_iAGi/s1600/FullSizeRender+2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9PwVC9WoNSpsGjT-PONUhbd-0NaKcBlOeNKvnfXOtT6d41ap4kb1YhpJmPR8c-JPs5040eEX7sh8gcK49URigl7FiKwdwx8sDQiTKpODAxgQlLtpPg3vCym48pJR1fUrboJvnFvA_iAGi/s1600/FullSizeRender+2.jpg" /></a></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
Im sure you're thinking "what are you talking about Deanna, everything is local". While this is pretty much true, what I mean is don't shop in the touristy stores in for souvenirs and gifts. </div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
Street vendors are the way to go. The prices are reasonable and the items are unique, you can find everything from hand made pottery to hand roll cigars that are made right in front of you.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
4) Breakfast is SERIOUS Business</h3>

Brunch so hard! </div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
I thought that only the DMV was brunch and breakfast crazy but I guess that love spans hundreds and hundreds of miles. While in Condado I saw a number of restaurants that specialize in breakfast but without a doubt one thing everyone can agree on is Pinky's is the best.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
The Mallorca Sandwich pictured above is a must try and the restaurant is always packed, which is clearly a good sign. </div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">

<h3 style="text-align: center;">
5) See The City Differently</h3>

</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
Walking is for chumps and honestly takes too long. But biking, now thats an adventure and if you don't mind the exercise it's a great way to see San Juan differently. I stayed at the <a href="http://www.laconcharesort.com/">La Concha Resort</a> in San Juan which offers their guest a bike borrowing service.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
After hopping on my chariot for the day I was off exploring San Juan seeing the shore line, murals, food truck festivals and more. </div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

6) Puerto Rican Minute </h3>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
Listen Linda, if you're in a rush all the time...Puerto Rico may not be the place for you. </div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
Everything is SLOW...traffic, restaurant service etc but there is something about the slowness that is beautiful. The people of San Juan are truly living in paradise and have no reason to be in a hurry.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
The take everything in and in the time that it takes food to cook or to be waited on people actually TALK TO EACH OTHER, engage and enjoy their time with the people they are with. They take in the scenery...they live. </div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
So when you're in a hurry when you're there, relax just live.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
Bonus, everyone in San Juan is super nice. Like everyone...even the cops, people were super willing to spark convo. </div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
7) Parking in Old San Juan</h3>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
Nonexistent, next question.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
Just kidding, well kind of. Parking in Old San Juan is hectic, little streets with even less space and it seems that people park in whatever direction they want so it can make it a little confusing on which way you should be driving.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
They do have two parking garages that I noticed (one that we parked in) but other than that I didn't see much. My advice, maybe take a cab there if you plan to stay all day. </div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
8) What Rules of The Road?</h3>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
Ok so heres the thing...I couldn't explain San Juan road rules if I tried. No matter if its how people react to road signs, how police decide to direct traffic flow or how the lines in the road seem to mean absolutely nothing.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
I don't know whats going on there and that is literally the end of the story.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
I cant help you, lol.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<h3 style="text-align: center;">
9) Stay in Condado </h3>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
Its perfect.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
The views cant be beat, its close to night life, culture and food, food, food! 9 times out of 10 when you arrive for your stay you will be in a hotel that has direct beach or lagoon access so it definitely gets my vote for accommodations. </div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
However don't let that limit you, even if you stay there travel outside of the town often.</div>
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>

While San Juan is the home of the Bacardi Rum Factory that is frequented by tourist and is adored for is different tours and tastings. Bacardi is NOT the island favorite, Bacardi is far out shined by Don Q.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<div style="text-align: center;">
Ask anyone on the Island they will tell you whats what. Oh and you better get it while you're there because Don Q is NOT sold in the states. </div>

But since we got the tub it has literally improved our entire bath time experience, from the moment we put Savannah in the tub to when it's time to clean up. </span></div>

While that was convenient I have to be honest it was SUPER scary. </span></div>

Which for our comfort was leaps and bounds better than the sink but still left so much to be desired. The tub we purchased was clunky, difficult to clean (corners that soap scum could get stuck in) and wasn't built to grow with Savannah. </span></div>

It folds down for easy storage. Can I say this right here may be my favorite part? It's a complete game changer, no more baby tub sitting in the bathroom taking up space when its not in use or worrying if it will fit in the closet.

The OXO Tot Splash & Store Bathtub grows with your baby! There is no telling when Savannah will be ready to transition into our normal tub. But with the Splash & Store tub we have not had to worry. The tub is engineered to provide support for babies from birth to 18 months without the need for any separate infants. So we still have plenty of time left. </span></span><br />

It's stable and secure. Not only does the Splash & Store Bathtub have a center support post that helps stabilize little just starting to sit on their own or little ones that love to splash and wiggle around (like Savannah). It also has four legs on the bottom which help keep the Splash & Store Bathtub in place inside your bathtub. </span></span><br />
