I used the entire Shaklee 180 line and it completely changed my life forever and I never want to go back to how I was. In fact, in 2010 I lost 28 lbs and 19 1/2 inches!

2 Minute Iced Coffee for Less Than 1 Dollar {Better & Cheaper than Starbucks}

I come to you once again with another one of my favorite drinks. I shared with you the most amazing pomegranate lemonade and my favorite smoothies. Today I am going to share with you an iced coffee that is better than Starbucks!!

As most of you know, have had a lot on my plate the last few months. I am planning a wedding working as a stylist, running my own business and buying a house! Therefor I have needed a little pick me up every once in a while. I love to drink tea and I am not much of a coffee drinker although I don’t mind it every once in a while. Mainly when we have left over that we can’t let go to waste. So… Here it is: English Toffee Iced Coffee!

This is a very easy recipe that you can alter at any time. This one is my favorite although you can change the flavor of stevia and have a different flavor drink everyday!

Here is a short video showing you just how I make this Iced coffee!

You will need:

Ice

Milk

Cold Coffee

Maple Syrup

English Toffee Stevia

Fill your glass 3/4 of the way with ice.

Pour your milk into your glass just until it covers the ice.

Drizzle the maple syrup over the ice milk.

Then you fill the rest of your glass up with the cool coffee.

Last but certainly not least, add your favorite flavor of stevia. In this case I used English Toffee. Give it a little stir and you are set to go!

This really is a great treat that you don’t have to spend a fortune on. This whole drink cost less than $1.00. That is a lot better than the $4.00 something you would have spent at Starbucks and it only took 2 minutes.

Are you a coffee drinker?

French Braid your hair in 7 Simple Steps {With a Video}

I am republishing this post because I realized that I didn’t make my video public on Youtube. So…. here it is!

Last week I showed you how to Master the art of Braiding so for this week I decided to show you how to turn that basic braid into a French Braid. It is easier than you might think. So many people get discouraged with a French braid and they shouldn’t.

If there is one thing that I would suggest to you it would be this. Make sure you feel completely comfortable with a regular braid before you go onto a French braid. The motions are the same except you are picking up and adding hair to the French braid as you go along.

In this video I show you just how to take a basic braid and turn it into a French braid with only adding 2 steps.

1. Grab a good size section of hair on the top of your head

2. Dived Hair in 3 Sections

3. Take the Left Section and Place it Over the Center Section

4. Take the Right Section and Place it Over the Center Section

5. Add a Small Amount of Hair to the Left Section and Place it Over the Center Section

6. Add a Small Amount of Hair to the Right Section and Place it Over the Center Section

7. Continue steps 5 and 6 until you run out of hair

I remember when I first learned how to braid, I wouldn’t give up until I mastered it. Let me tell you, I was so excited once I finally got it and I know you will feel the same way.

I am confident that with a little practice you will be able to French braid in not time at all. I hope that this video is helpful for you.

Do you know how to French braid? Do you remember how you felt when you mastered it? I would love to hear about it.

Let me know how it goes for you!
