Go to Hairstyles | Braids

Hello bloggers! My hair is quite fizzy and never seems to fall the way I want it to. I'm not a big fan of putting heat to my hair because it obviously kills hair, and it's noticeable in mine. To tame it, I braid it (which is very often). I use a lot of these hairstyles on a day to day basis and I hope you like them!

Basic Side Braid
I'd say that this was my most worn hairstyle, and it's easy to see why. It's so quick and easy to do, even without a mirror. I usually do a side braid when I'm in a rush to get out of the house and don't have much time to do my hair.

 Double Braid

I love this look because it's simple, cute, and makes an outfit a little more fun! (Please excuse the messiness on the right picture.. yikes!)

Messy Bun
I swear my buns never look the same. Sometimes they're high, sometimes they're bigger, sometimes they're incredibly small (thin hair problems /:). I've found that the classic bangs braid didn't look very good on me, so I improvised. I first starting doing this braid during soccer with a ponytail so that my headband wouldn't slide back (clever right!), then I started to like the look and wore it more! (Braid is inverted)

Milkmaid Braid

This braid (currently my favorite) has been quite trendy lately and I'm sure you've seen it! I think it's so elegant, and much easier to do than you'd think. It's a really quick braid to do and it looks nice. You don't have to leave down bangs, especially if your hair is much longer, but I feel that it looks a lot better and complements my eyes in the light.

Let me know if you have a favorite hairstyle or if you have any questions!

Fried Oreos | How to

Okay. Let's just give a moment to appreciate the goodness of these. Have you tried fried oreos (also known as froreos) before? If not, make them right now! I swear these are one of the best dessert/snacks I've ever tried. I first heard about these from people who had bought them at an annual fair from town and I thought it sounded disgusting and weird.. After a couple years, I decided to try these out. And oh my bajeez these were heavenly. They're so fluffy and soft, kind of like a donut. The oreos are soft, the taste is literally indescribable. Even if you're not a big oreo fan, they're delicious!

So they're super easy to make and take about 2 minutes! I'm not going to ramble on about how good they are anymore, try them for yourself!

Ingredients:
Pancake Mix (plus ingredients to make it)
Oreos
Oil (for frying)
Powdered sugar for topping

Boil the oil in a pan or pot.
Prepare the pancake mix and dip the Oreos in the batter all the way. I recommend getting as much batter on the Oreo as possible to make them nice and fluffy. Place the Oreo in the pan (no more than 3-5 at a time). Flip them after about 30 seconds and let them fry for for another 30 seconds or until golden brown. Spoon them out and place them on a paper towel to soak up the grease. After cooling for a little, sprinkle powdered sugar on top. Best eaten warm!

Let me know if you tried these and if you like them (: Enjoy!
