Tuesday Tips: Who to invite

Hi everyone! This is a new segment I'm starting on my blog, its tips, advice, and observations I've come across in my little lifetime and things that come up in the future and so forth. It's coming directly from me and my point of view. It may not be a weekly thing, but I'll post a "Tuesday Tip" when something happens, in my life, that I want to share and have other people learn from the experience.
If you've watched the MTV show Girl Code, you know they have "Girl Code Rules" they share on every episode. For example: Never leave the house without lipstick.
This Tuesday Tips is kind of my own version of Girl Code Rules, but more along the lines of advice driven tips.

Always Invite Your Whole Group of Friends
Whether it's a birthday dinner, or party, or a big event, it's worth it in the long run to just send out a group invite text to your whole group of friends, instead of inviting 5 or 6 from the group and leaving out 2 people. That does nothing but hurt peoples feelings, and the last thing you want at a birthday celebration or party is drama. I'm not saying you need to invite 10 other people on your coffee date with your BFF, this tip only refers to big events {birthday celebrations and parties in general} Trust me, in the long run it'll make the event feel like less pressure and you will have zero regret about who you did and did not invite, by just inviting everyone. No one likes being left out.

Easy Peasy Lemon Bars


Ok, ok so this isn't a homemade recipe post buuutttt hey they taste homemade I promise.
I did not know how much I loved lemon bars until about... yesterday.
Mom and I nibbled on one from Tartine in Coronado back In July, and we loved the sweet and tangy lemon square, we said that we had to make these at home sometime!
So here we are a month later revisiting this delicacy and I have to say I'm hooked.

You may be thinking that this is a summer dessert and I'm breaking a law by making this after labor day {aka the close of summer} but whhattevvaaa, I am not one of those strict food season followers. I will continue to eat these babies in December while curled up by the fire place!

All you have to do is buy Betty Crocker Lemon Bar Mix and follow the directions!
One tip I have for you is to cook it NO MORE than 26 minutes, I cooked mine a little longer than that and they turned out more cakey than I would of liked :( You want your lemon bars to be moist and gooey!
 
ENJOY!
