Easy S'mores Brownie Recipe



It's summertime - the time for campfires and S'mores!  What better way than to combine S'mores and brownies?  Here's the easiest way to make them.

Bake a box of Brownie mix up according to the box's directions.  While still warm, add a layer of graham cracker crumbs.  Add a layer of mini marshmallows, and top it off with a layer of Hershey's chocolate.  Stick the whole thing back into the oven to melt together.  

When serving - it's best to warm it back up so that the marshmallow is a bit gooey and the chocolate warm and melty.  Enjoy!

Gigi New York - Erin Gates Satchel




I LOVE my new Gigi New York satchel designed by Erin Gates.  It's absolutely gorgeous with plenty of structure and detailing throughout.  It is generously sized without being overwhelming.  They thought of everything when designing this bag - a large zippered interior pocket along with two smaller slip pockets - it is even large enough for my Macbook Air.

It comes in 5 gorgeous colors, though I chose black because first off, I have 3 little ones and secondly, it works with all outfits.  Take a look at all the beautiful details below.  It retails for $475 and although it is a splurge, it is much more affordable than comparable designer bags.  A final reason why I love this bag?  It's made here in the US.
