Maui Jim Sunglasses Review + Black Bean and Corn Chicken Taco Bake

After that brief bout of snow we were hit with in NYC last week, I think Spring is finally upon us and is here to stay (yay!). The beautiful weather has motivated me to search yet again for a pair of aviators that look nice on my petite face so I was happy to notice a pair of Maui Jim sunglasses in the new Nordstrom circular, which eventually led me to these Maui Jim 'Kolohe' 50mm Polarized Sunglasses. I was intrigued because the size (50mm) seems perfect for a petite-sized face like mine and I was happy to discover that they do, indeed fit well. :)

Top: ASOS (old). Pants: Old Navy the Rockstar Twill Cargos in Olive Camoflauge. Boots: Kenneth Cole Reaction 'Fun Hunt Ankle Boots'. Sunglasses: Maui Jim 'Kolohe' 50mm Polarized Sunglasses.

As mentioned before, I've been cooking a lot more than usual (every night lately) and it's been quite the learning process. I'm much more efficient at cooking now and have been relying on quick recipes since I get home late on weeknights. Here's a quick and simple one that A has requested I make again after eating it for the second time:

Black Bean and Corn Chicken Taco Bake

Ingredients:
1 rotisserie chicken, taken off the bone and cut into bite-size pieces
1 jar of black bean and corn salsa (I used Newman's Own)
10 small flour tortillas, cut into pieces
2 cups shredded cheddar or Mexican blend cheese

Directions:
1. Grease baking dish and preheat the oven to 350 degrees.
2. Mix the chicken, tortillas, cheese, and salsa together and pour into the baking dish. Cover with foil.
3. Bake for 30-45 minutes or until hot.

Leaving you with the fortune cookie quote, "Desire, like the atom, is explosive with creative force."

    I was reading your article and wondered if you had considered creating an ebook on this subject. Your writing would sell it fast. You have a lot of writing talent. rayban 7047

February Haul + Breakfast Bagel Strata Recipe

Image
The very last item I picked up from H&M that broke the buy and return cycle was a $2 striped tee that I thought would be a nice basic to have - I can't wait until the day I can have a bigger closet so I can actually see all the pieces I own - I might end up finding a few more basic stripes tees but when I picked it up, I didn't think I had one. :) I was browsing Insta Stories and came across some cute Target finds so made a large purchase at 3AM when I was up from baby B: Left: Denim Trucker Jacket in XS Light Acid Wash .

Hermes Toolbox 20 Review!

Image
A long time ago, I used to covet the Hermes Birkin bag, as I'm sure many have since it's so elusive. Since then, I switched over to pine after the Hermes Kelly bag instead, after I saw it on Wendy Nguyen from Wendy's Lookbook here . She's a fellow petite and it just looked so nice on her! Over time though, and especially after baby A, I see how such a bag is definitely not practical for me and if I were to spend a small fortune on a bag, I'd want one that I would actually use more often. The Kelly has a thin strap and is quite structured, which is what I like about it, but in reality is too classy for my weekends. It wasn't until I went to Athens, posted about here , that I tried on the Hermes Toolbox 20 and fell for it. It was in a beautiful royal blue color but I already have a Celine in that same color (seen here ) but that bright color and how it hung on me were the reasons I really liked it so much. I realized I wouldn't love the bag in a beige or deep

Canada Goose: Fusion Fit Reviews

Image
I'm finally done with exhausting all the options of Canada Goose coats and have to say that the Fusion Fit is definitely made to perfectly fit petites. Out of the three that I tried on, the Rossclair , Shelburne , and Trillium , they all have the perfect sleeve length but the hoods are all still too big in proportion and cover my whole face when worn. The Canada Goose Rossclair Parka Fusion Fit definitely fits much better than the normal Rossclair as shown here . I still like this Military Green color the best along with Black and like these large buttons better than the small loop ones on the Kensington but still prefer the ease of snap buttons to these. Canada Goose Shelburne Parka Fusion Fit in XXS Graphite The Canada Goose Shelburne Parka Fusion Fit is the only one of the three that does not have an adjustable bungee cord at the inner waist so the shape of this one is much more boxy. The sleeves of this one are also a bit longer than the others, though still much be
