What’s in my purse


What's in my purse

I thought it would be fun to do a little "Whats in my purse" post for you guys. I'm always curious about stuff like that and love reading post or magazine articles about it! 

Alright we'll start with an overview of my purse and everything that goes in.
I got my purse at the Michael Kors outlet last summer for my birthday and I'm still just as much in love with it as the first day I got it😍. 
I've had this exact purse (or at least one similar😉) pinned on Pinterest for YEARS. But obviously spending $300-$500 on a purse just isn't an option for me. Which is why I was so excited when the Michael Kors outlet opened up in Altoona. I scored this one for only $100! 
Now I realize to some people thats still alot of money to spend on a purse...but I spent around $150 on one at the Coach outlet in Georgia when we were on vacation about 7 years ago and I still have and use it! so to me, its worth the money rather than spending $20-$30 on a new purse from Walmart or Target every few months. 

Ok, now onto whats in the purse. 

Joe got me this little monkey out of a vending machine somewhere when I was in the hospital and I've had it in my purse since I suppose you could call it my little good luck charm😊.

Mints of course, My mom got me this cute business card holder when I had the salon and now I use it to hold business cards for dadd lock and key business and my brothers leather business. 
My favorite elf lip oil and my favorite chapstick. I got the oil from the elf website but I think they sell it at Target, and I just got the chapstick at Walmart. 
My little pen light Joe got me.
And my two favorite pens!

Have you ever ordered from Ipsy? Its a monthly makeup/skin/hair subscription and I love that they come in little makeup bags, they come in so handy!
I keep my travel size wet brush, bottle of perfume, travel size Aveda stress fix lotion, Sudsy Soapcakes chapstick, Tylenol, contact eye drops, and a bottle with a couple of each of all my medicines so I always have them with me when we're out and about or eating somewhere. 

In this one I keep hand sanitizer, Kleenex's, and I usually have wet wipes too but I need to get a new set of travel ones! 

I got this All about the Benjamins wallet a few years ago from Thirty One and I love it! I think I've maybe switched out wallets once, since I got it but I always go back to this one, 1. its a little pricy so I wanted my moneys worth and 2. I just love how much it can hold and how well made it is! 

And that's pretty much it! 
I do usually keep a can of hairspray, pocket knife, and some sort of snack in here too. but I put them all in my center console awhile ago and haven't put them back in yet 🤷‍♀️.

Nothing to fun or crazy here, I will tell you this purse can hold ALOT more!😂. I love that I can fit a bottle of water down in as well when we're out and about and when I used to go for my Remicade Infusions or for my Iron infusions now, I can fit a book or iPad, magazine, and plenty of others. 
Let me know in the comments what is your must have or something you can't live without that's always in your purse!

Instant Pot Hamburger Helper

Instant Pot Hamburger Helper To get started you're going to turn your instant pot to the sauce feature. When it shows "Hot" on the display you're ready to add your olive oil and hamburger. Throw in all of your seasonings and brown the hamburger. Once its browned, add the noodles and more seasonings. Then add the two cans of beef broth and try to push all the ingredients down so there's not too much sitting on the surface. Then set the instant pot to cook for 8 minutes and do a quick release. Add in your milk, cheese, and party dip or sour cream if you have it. Turn it back onto sauté and stir everything together until it's melted. And serve! I don't know about you guys...but in our opinion you can't have hamburger helper without some bread and butter to go along with it😉. Ingredients: 1lb hamburger 8 oz elbow noodles 2 14 oz cans beef broth  1/2 - 1 cup milk  8 oz shredded ch...

Life update + some new projects

Lifish update I’ll do a full “anniversary post” in July but I’ve just had a lot of thoughts lately about life, crohns, everything. To be honest I’ve had a lot of confusion and even discouragement which is not normally me. I’m coming up on two years and while I’m no where near how I was two years ago (I mean that was pretty bad...😳) I’m also nowhere near where I thought I would be, I remember thinking that on the year anniversary too and I kind of think that feeling has just progressed since then😕. I’m no better than I was 8 months ago to be completely honest with you and in some ways may or worse? I am so so thankful to have a diagnosis and know what’s wrong with me, but with that I thought would come answers and healing. I’ve had some answers and some healing of course, but there’s still really a lot of unknown! In the beginning I used to talk about finding my “new normal” well I’m here to tell you 2 years later I still haven’t found it😂. Learning to navigate something new ...
