How do you hide your electronics?

Snaps from staycation! We spent the weekend in Atl Snaps from staycation! We spent the weekend in Atlanta for Benjamin's birthday! 

We started at @childrensmuseumatlanta and then headed over to @skyviewatl! Then we had dinner at @johnnyrockets and spent the night. Then, we woke up early and headed over to the @georgiaaquarium for the day.

It was SO much fun. I highly recommend doing a staycation in your own city. I've lived here 30 years and always find something fun to do. 

Happy birthday to my big 2-year-old! 💙

This is the easiest idea for a fun summer party! 🦀 I took these crabby chicken croissants to our margaritaville themed party last week. I also made them for a mermaid-themed party a few years ago!

To make these:
-slice mini croissants down the middle but leave the back connected.
-fill with chicken salad.
-attach a toothpick to the back of edible eyeballs with cookie icing and allow it to dry.
-insert the toothpicks into the croissants to create eyes!

Save this for later when you need a dish or appetizer to bring to summer parties!

Today we're making frito corn salad! This might be Today we're making frito corn salad! This might be the most southern dish I've ever made. However, it is a perfect side to take to a barbecue or to make for a summer party. 

It's also the perfect dish to make if your kitchen is under construction like mine was for this video. It's a cold dish so nothing to heat up. 

First, mix together two cans of drained whole-kernel corn, two cups of mexican blend cheese, one cup of light mayo, diced red pepper, pepper and a bit of cilantro in a bowl. Then, add crushed Chili Cheese Fritos and mix well. Serve and enjoy!

It's my birthday! We're making glitter drinks! ✨ It's my birthday! We're making glitter drinks! ✨

This is my favorite way to make a regular drink feel fancy! Sprinkle a little edible glitter in a silicone mold and fill with water and freeze. When it melts, your drink will be cute and sparkly.

My drink today is two ounces of bourbon, one ounce of peach syrup, lemon juice and club soda! Stir and watch it sparkle.

Today we're making golf tee cupcakes for the Maste Today we're making golf tee cupcakes for the Masters! ⛳️

First, either make or purchase cupcakes with green frosting. My kitchen was under construction for this video, so I purchased mine. But you can easily make your own and even use the grass piping tip to make grass. 

Then I found these golf-tee toothpicks. Place one in each cupcake. 

Then use cookie icing to secure a white chocolate truffle to each of the tees. 

Allow the icing to harden, serve and enjoy!

Hel On Heels Top Sellers 2019

Happy Friday that feels like Tuesday! I can never get quite back on track when we have time off in the middle of the week. I love to look at year-in-review posts. I thrive on checking analytics and seeing what performed well. I use it as research for the next year to create content you want to see.

One thing I find most interesting is the top sellers from the entire year. I am able to track this through RewardStyle/Liketoknow.it.

If you’re unfamiliar with RewardStyle, it’s a platform that serves as go-between for bloggers and brands. Brands sign-up to have their products part of the RewardStyle platform, then bloggers and influencers can link through the platform to receive commission. RewardStyle also owns liketoknow.it. So if you have the liketoknow.it app, you can search your favorite blogger or influencer to shop their links. When you hear someone say “get credit” or “affiliate” that means they are receiving a small commission for recommending the item.

While we are talking about this, I want to give a huge, huge thank you to those who shop using my links. I do receive a small commission at no cost to you when you shop my links. The money earned from these commissions is put right back into my blog to keep creating content. I appreciate it more than you know. Thank you!

If you want to see more of what I recommend, you can follow me on the liketoknow.it app. If you have affiliate questions, I would be more than happy to talk about it further with you.

Ok, the fun stuff. Here are the 10 top sellers from 2019!

10. Farmacy Clean Bee– this is the best cleanser. It’s all natural and cleans so deep into your pores. It’s also really really gentle and infused with honey. I love it so much. You can read more about it on my master list or why you should honey to your skincare posts.

9. Dry Brush– I wrote a whole post about this one too. Check out all the benefits of dry brushing.

8. Gold Platform Tennis Shoes – this is hilarious to me. I originally bought these for a Halloween costume, but they came in real handy on the Kesha cruise. I love them for real, and I’m glad to know there are others in the world who love them too.

7. Cosmopolitan Carry-On Suitcase – I’ve linked this one several times in different posts, but you can prominently see it in this how to pack a carry-on post.

6. “Home Body” Sweatshirt – Love this sweatshirt. It was a good find, but it was earlier in the year. So I’ve found some similar options here, here and here.

5. Laniege Lip Mask

4. Bagsmart Travel Organizer

3. Cooluli Mini Fridge – I originally started talking about this when I used it as a Diet Coke fridge on my desk at work. Eventually I got a second to use as a skin fridge. Basically these are the best little fridges that can also be used as a warmer. I have a pink and black one.

2. Moonlight Pajama Set – just the best pajamas. The short pair was the one that sold a lot, but they also have a long version if you’re chilly right now.

1. Wide-calf Over-the-knee boots – and for the second year in a row, the wide-calf over-the-knee boots!

What was your favorite purchase from 2019?
