So before all of this CRAZY inflation came about I managed to get myself a fun colorful wig to replace my old pink and ombre yaki wig. In with the new out with the old. I thought I was going to be filming more YouTube videos than I actually do. I like colored hair on camera it provides a boldness to the thumbnail and the video and makes you stay engaged even if its just to look at the hair.
This particular wig was a black and purple ombre short bob synthetic wig from Ali express I found in a simple search. Of course the part that caught my eye was the price $14.60 (I think I caught a sale) The seller had good feedback and I was on a wig buying binge so I went for it! When wigs are that low in price it could be very good and you got a steal OR it was cheap.. and it looks cheap. I was pleasantly surprised at the quality for the price. It didn't look super shiny and halloween-ish. I always judge the wig by saying "Could I wear this outside?" And the answer is yes! Very nice on the inside. The cap is well constructed. The hair felt soft and didn't fall out when I ran my fingers through it. Of course the scalp part is a standard "wig part" but I've seen people on YouTube really make the part look way more natural. I'm not into all the plucking and putting foundation in the crease. I'm a slap it on and go type of person. This has to be one of my favorite wigs of 2022.*TIP: Don't forget to purchase thru Rakuten and use a cashback card to pay. Make the most of your purchases.

I have been wanting a deep fried Oreo for years! Every time I would go to an amusement park or fair the stand for deep fried Oreos wasn't open. I was so intrigued about these deep fried Oreos I said "I'm going to make them myself from home" I was surprised at how little bit of ingredients to make them. Here is everything you need:

Doing custom press on nails from home is extremely easy. All you need is any shape of press on nail (make sure they are full cover) Any type of nail stand, and some type of sticky putty to attach the press on nails.

I was looking at this wig for the longest and didn't know whether I wanted to order a wig that long or not. I got some Amazon gift card rewards and decided that was my chance. Yes! You guessed it I'm a frugal person, a cheapskate, a penny pincher... whatever you want to call me it's fine just know that I know how to save a buck. So this wavy glue less lace front wig is about 26 inches which is to date one of the longest wigs I own.
I was very excited to receive this wig unit in the mail from Amazon. The wavy wig retails for about $39.00 and is well constructed. In the pictures of course I already cut the lace off at the edges. The cap was nice and snug and it has two straps in the back of the lace front wig. Plus combs to secure the wig at the front and in the back.
I liked the versatility of the natural long lace front wavy wig. I wore it more dry for more of a wavy hair style but if you add a good amount of water the lace front wig becomes wet and wavy which is a nice option if you want to go for another type of style.I was looking at this wig for the longest and didn't know whether I wanted to order a wig that long or not.

Dairy-free garbanzo bean aka chickpea salad is my favorite because there is REALLY no cook time. Unless you would like to make your garbanzo beans fresh. Mines are out of the can but you can make this with homecooked garbanzo beans and it will be even tastier! Here is everything you need to make this delicious dish!

I'm learning to wait for sales on some of my favorite groceries. It takes about (3) weeks for my local Kroger to mark plant based meats down but it's worth the wait. These (2) pack of Impossible Burgers (Plant Based) are usually $6.99 and when they first came out I paid full price because I was so impressed that it tasted like I was eating a REAL burger. That was about 2 years ago. Now I focus more on beans, fruits and vegetables and make meals like these my cheat dinner nights.

It was sad to see my favorite thrift store not having half off day anymore. I used to be so excited to get to the the Monday 1/2 off sale to find some cool clothes for pennies. But now you have to look way harder to get those types of deals. They still ran two color tickets that are half off so that was still a good thing.

This is my D.I.Y recipe for shaving lotion. I've used this recipe for years and years and I haven't had any cuts since I start making it. I used to buy shaving cream and I would be cut a couple times by the time I got done shaving my legs. With this DIY shaving lotion I never had that problem.

I have all of these ideas but I feel like I'm stuck. Not because I don't have the ideas but because I have TOO MANY ideas. I was watching the video below and I really recorded all day. In total I think I did 5 videos in a day that particular day. I wake up with so many ideas I get paralyzed and don't do any of them. So I'm thinking I need to write down a couple and work on them one at a time so I don't feel so overwhelmed.
I also see I had a high level of excitement that I don't currently have. This was also back in October 2019 before all of the insanity of 2020 and 2021. So it was a more carefree time with none of the stresses we have at the moment. Make sure to come back I have some DIY recipes I'm going to post on the blog. Here is a blast from the past. My YouTube upload from October 2019:

It has taken me roughly 4-5 years to be able to use my DSLR camera for YouTube without the footage looking blurry and out of focus. I tried to make a YouTube video to say Thank You for 1,800 subscribers about a year ago it was so bad! It was a real struggle! I have been in photography class for about (3) weeks and because we have been working with camera settings I decided to come home and work on the video settings and here is a snap shot of the settings I'm using on the Canon 1300 D DSLR camera to do YouTube video:

Which is better Ebay, Depop or Mercari? I sell on all of them so I guess I will go in order based on how long I've been a seller on the platform and tell you my personal experience with it.
