My Waffle Recipe


Things that you will need:
- Large Bowl
- Whisk
- Waffle Machine
- Microwave
- Soup bowl
- Measuring Spoons and cups
- Soup Ladle



This usually makes me a heaping plateful as seen in my picture, you can also add blueberries (like I did!) or other yummy stuff if you'd like!

Ingredients you will need:
- 2 cups flour
- 1 tsp salt
- 4 tsp baking powder
- 2 Tbsp sugar
- 1 1/2 cups warm milk
- 2 eggs
-1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/3 cup butter
- Pam

This is very simple to make! Here are the step by steps for making these yummy waffles!!

1. Take your Pam and spray the top and bottom of the Waffle machine, I like to make sure that it won't stick no matter what so I use it.

2. Take the flour, baking powder, sugar and salt and combine them in the large bowl... mix the ingredients lightly.

3. Measure out the milk and place into the soup bowl and microwave it for approx. 40 seconds or until its a bit warm.. Do Not make it boiling hot. Add this to the dry ingredients, as well as the 2 eggs and vanilla extract. Melt the butter in the microwave as well and add into the bowl.

4. Whisk it all together, making sure there are no clumps and that it's all smooth. If you wanted to add berries or other extra's do so at this point.

5. Plug in waffle machine and let it warm up. Once at desirable temperature, use the soup ladle to portion the waffle mix onto the little square sections.

6. Wait a couple mins and VOILA!! WAFFLESSS!! :)

Enjoy with Maple syrup, cut up berries or even vanilla ice cream!




                                                          

Rimmel ScandalEyes Lycra Flex Mascara

 
  This is another product that I've purchased from Shoppers Drugmart and I've gone back to buy again. It seems to always be on sale for around $8 so it's a pretty good deal. I bought it in 001 Black, color wise it's good just like any other mascara. I have long blonde eyelashes so I absolutely loved the big wand. Makes it easy to separate the lashes, doesn't get clumpy at all. It makes my eyelashes look long and thick so im pretty happy in that sense. If I do accidently get it on my eyelid, it comes off fairly well and it holds well till night time. If I had to rate this product it would be a 9/10, it's a really good deal! I will prob. purchase this again.

NYX Super Skinny Eye Marker



 I went out to Target for my first time!! ( Their fairly new to Canadians) so I was blown away by their makeup section! They are way better hands down then Walmart.. def gonna shop there for makeup products. Anyways I picked this NYX Super Skinny Eye Marker up when I was there. I've always wanted to try an eye marker so I gave this a try. I got it in Carbon Black and payed around $10 for it.
Im still a little iffy about the product, it's hard to apply when you have foundation and eye shadow on your eyelids. I had to keep wiping it so it would apply dark. You also have to press on somewhat hard for the liquid to come out, sometime the tip wouldn't be that wet and the base would be :S
It's not the easiest eyeliner I've used before, If I do decide to buy this in the future.. I will probably get the thicker brush since it looks like it would be a lot easier to work with. I'll put a pic of the marker tip below all the text. If I had to rate this product it would be a 5/10 since it was hard to work with, If you guys have questions or comments, please feel free to comment :)


 

Revlon Colorstay Whipped Foundation




   I picked this up from shoppers a while back and I ended up going back for more as I was very impressed by this product. Price wise it isn't over priced at all for what you get. I have pretty pale skin so I got the 150 Buff Chamois, It matches my skin perfectly color wise. I've had problems with other foundations with the coloring, sometimes they'll be too yellow toned or just too red toned for my skin so it doesn't blend in that well. This product however was completely different, it blends in sooo well! it honestly looks like your not wearing makeup. I've gotten so many compliments on my skin since I started using this!
I find the texture of it a lot better then the other mousse foundations like in comparison to the Maybelline Dream Matte Mousse, it's more liquidy so you can apply it a lot easier.. whereas the Dream Matte is sometimes crumbly feeling when you apply it. I use a foundation brush to apply it and it blends very nicely onto the skin. The 24hrs on the lid is absolutely true, It looks amazing till night time and holds up to hot weather. If I were to rate this product, it would have to be 10/10.. I will continue using this product. It's well worth the money in my mind.
