For those of you that missed this. The Victoria Secret Fashion Show. I thought it was messy,punky,rushed compared to last years show that I thought was  feminine,romantic and beautiful. I did like the part where they chose an unknown girl to be a model. As I was watching I chose my favorite who turned out to be the same girl who finally became the winner. She was really sincere and pretty and I'm glad she won:)As far as the fashion goes I really didnt think is was put together well. The Black eyed peas performance was fun:) Enjoy!!

Yummy Chowder!

This chowder is good! I made mine without the bacon, used two percent milk instead of half n half,only dill for spice,salt,pepper,garlic,and onion.I also added a small bag of frozen mixed veggies corn,carrot,green beans.

The Cliff House Clam Chowder has been on the menu since 1872. From The Cliff House in Ogunquit, Maine. Reprinted with permission.
Serves six
.

Ingredients:
•1 slice hickory-smoked bacon, minced
•1/2 teaspoon butter
•1 cup onion, minced
•1 medium garlic clove, minced
•1 teaspoon The Cliff House Spice Blend (see below)
•1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
•1 can clams (6-1/2 ounces)
•1 cup bottled clam juice
•1-1/2 cups Half and Half
•1/4 teaspoon white pepper
•2 medium potatoes, boiled, peeled and diced

Preparation:
To Create The Cliff House Spice Blend, blend 4 tsps oregano, 4 tsps dried parsley, 2 tsps marjoram, 2 tsps dill, 4 tsps thyme, 4 tsps basil, 1 tsp sage, 4 tsps rosemary, 2 tsps tarragon, 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour, crushing in a mortar if possible. Store in a resealable plastic bag to refrigerate.
In a heavy-bottomed, 4-pint soup kettle, sauté bacon, butter, onion, garlic and The Cliff House Spice Blend over low heat. Do not allow to brown. Drain clams and set aside, reserving the juice. Slowly stir the flour and clam juices in the sauté mixture. Bring to a boil; reduce heat. Add Half and Half and simmer 20 minutes. Add white pepper, potatoes and clams. Heat to serving temperature. Do not allow to boil, as this toughens the clams. Serve at once with crackers and warm cornbread.

HOMEMADE LEATHER CLEANERS (INEXPENSIVE AND EFFICIENT!)



     I recently bought some smokin hot leather boots from Ebay. To my dismay when I recieved them the leather looked dull and tired eventhough they were new. So starts my search for the perfect homemade mixture to make my boots look marvelous. Now to find my leather jacket that is similar to the one pictured worn by Nina Dobrev. For cleaning leather at home this is what I found...
***********Leather Cleaning***********************

 For general cleaning use a mixture of ¼ vinegar and ½ cup olive oil. Store it in a bottle and shake well. Spray this mixture on the leather and wipe. Use an ivory soap for producing lather on leather. Do not rinse the leather; instead buff it. On leather desks use 1 tablespoon Murphy's oil soap diluted in 1 part of water. For removing stain; just rub some toothpaste. Take a mixture of 1 part vinegar and 2 parts of neat's foot oil. Apply in a spinning motion, leave it for 9 hours then buff. Another trick is to dip a soft cotton in rubbing alcohol and rub on the stain. On smaller stains prepare a paste of 1 part cream of tartar and 1 part lemon juice. Apply the paste on the stain let it set for an hour and wipe clean. When you have Ink stains, use nail polish remover (non-acetone). For hard stains try aerosol hair spray.
For removal of  road salts on shoes, try a solution of 1 part water and 1 part white vinegar. Dip a cotton in the solution and wipe the shoes. Petroleum jelly will make them shiny. When cleaning and conditioning your leather clothes; make a mixture of 40-60 drops of essential oil, 1/3 olive oil, 8-12 drops of grape fruit extract, 1/3 castile soap and ½ gallon of water. Store in a spray bottle. Spray directly on the stains, clean with a soft cloth then buff. When leather clothes have an odor, leave in a steamy bathroom with a few drops  lemon essential oil in the tub. It is a good idea to dry leather with a hair dryer.
Test the solutions on a little patch before directly applying them directly to the stains on your leather goods

OLD GUESS ADS VS NEW GUESS ADS?

When I opened the September issue of Marie Clarie and saw the new Guess ads there was nothing but utter disappointment:(I was mostly bothered because for years I could always count on Guess
Ads to exude a sense of beauty mixed with class, sensuallity and a touch of sweetness. I dont think that they capture these qualities in their new ads. I love the below older ads and wish that they would return to this style. What do you think? Old or New?
