SENIOR LADY: CANDY CANE DANISH!

Image
Every Christmas my family wants me to prepare a  sausage breakfast  casserole. I do not serve biscuits with it since bread is inside of the casserole. I wanted to surprise my family with an extra side dish, I was watching cooking videos to get some ideas. I saw am image of a Candy Cane Danish, It looked like it would be hard to bake such a pretty pastry. I was intrigued, so I watched the video. Only three main ingredients were required!  The preparations were simple, but the danish looked elegant after it was baked, READ RECIPE BEFORE BAKING!!

SENIOR LADY: SIMPLE CHRISTMAS NAIL ART!

Image
  I love doing my own nail art. Years ago, I followed the  trend  of getting  "My Nails Done."  Experiencing popped  off  artificial nails  and the cost of weekly fill-ins were  too much drama for me. I discovered  that "doing my nails"  was therapeutic. My weekly quiet time involved doing nail art after my kids were in bed for the night. I collected several colors of nail hardener polish and kept them in a large basket. I eventually accumulated thirty -five [35] bottles of polish. My collection  included several colors of glitter nail polish. I wasn't good at drawing nail designs.  "My go to tricks" were polka dot designs, three color nails and nail glitter embelishments. I purchased several packets of nail stickers online too. Some people seemed to like my simple nail designs. I always received compliments.  I also discovered there was  online videos available for  ladies interested ...

SENIOR LADY: CHRISTMAS SCARF HACKS!

Image
I  am not ashamed to admit that I own around fifty silky  scarves. There are about fifteen cotton bandanas among the collection too.  I fell in love with scarf collecting when I was in college. A friend  showed me a few fashion  tricks a frugul college lady should use.  Scarves could enhance my outfits. I had them in multiple colors, designs, and prints.  I used them as headbands, belts, and neckties. I stopped buying scarves when I realized that Thrift stores have gently used ones. I've even found several new  scarves with the tags still on them. I visit Dollar stores every week. They have very long scarves with seasonal prints and designs on them. I have seen Easter, July Fourth, and Christmas prints on the scarves at the stores I visit. I buy two scarf designs for each season. I wear headwraps when I want to take a break from wearing wigs or natural hairstyles. These scarves are long enough to make various head wrap styles. Hear are...
