Lauren LA's ways on how to prepare for the Holidays; Link on how to cook a good Turkey

Most people like to cook Turkey for the Holidays, but don't know how to make it juicy and soft or tender. And it doesn't even have to be YOU who finds it hard to cook in particular, cause usually, either way, you have to eat it. And lots of it. And eat it the next day, and the next day, and the next day so it doesn't go to waste. Lol Anyway, here's the link to a juicy and tender turkey. By the way, the skin doesn't become crispy in most places just in case you really like that.

Lauren LA; Prepairing for the Holidays

Lauren LA's Awesome Ideas; Glitter Perfume

Here's an awesome gift idea I came up with this holiday season. This is what you'll need;

• A tube of Dry loose glitter (No wet glitter or glitter glue)

•  Some fragrance with a Twist-off cap(The one I used is from the brand called "Bodycology" and is selling for $3.00 for a set of 3 in the stocking stuffer aisle of most Walmart's) The fragrances are Really good, the scent doesn't fade or change, and the mini bottles are small enough to carry in your purse, but last a long time!

Here's how you make Glitter Perfume;

1.  Take the Twist-off cap off the bottle. 
2. Take your glitter tube and very lightly tap the edge of the bottles opening, and use a small funnel. You only need about 1/8 of an inch (Try not to put in too much or the spritzer will eventually clog while in use.)
3. Screw cap securely back on bottle and shake lightly until the glitter has spread (It's okay if some of the glitter sticks to the bottle, or doesn't move very rapidly.). Most of the glitter should fall back to the bottom, which insures you've done all the steps right. 

Here's the finished product! Looks Awesome doesn't it? Brighter white glitter tends to look more fancy and magical.

• If you don't want to try to seal them back in the box to give them as a Christmas present, you can wrap them in golden or red foil paper and gift them in a small bag the opposite of the color you chose for the foil paper.

Hope you try this project out too and get Amazing (And glittery) results! Thanks for reading and I'll be blogging more soon!

The TRUTH about "BLACK FRIDAY"

   This is a MUST READ!!! This post is about Black Friday...I did some research not long ago on sales, and these result might shock you. Here's the results;


                                                    LAUREN'S SALE RESEARCH

1. First Place; After Christmas Sales; Everything from electronics, to clothes and other  everyday things!
2. Second Place; Cyber Monday; Cyber Monday sales usually include just about everything)
3. Dead Last; Black Friday; They know a lot of people are desperate, so they take advantage of it. They still make almost the same amount of money, but make consumers think it's "the biggest sale ever!!!". The sales are 2-3x as good AFTER Christmas than after Thanksgiving, when they know people will start shopping and make some impulse buys.  

 So the Truth about "Black Friday"? It's NOT a good day to go shopping. Some people go because they "love the thrill", but that's just until they realize how truly crazy some people are. And yes, unfortunately, people do get hurt, and some even die on Black Friday. So wait till Cyber Monday if you're doing some Christmas shopping, when the deals are better AND safer to get than Black Friday. 

Happy Turkey Day!!!!!!!!

     HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!!!

   Today, My mom, dad, big bro, aunt, uncle, and I are going out to eat and then see a movie! As Grav3yardgirl would say: SOOO EXCITE! (If you have not seen her videos on youtube, you need to.) We will be going out to Cracker-Barrel and hopefully go see Interstellar......but, whatever we see, I'm just happy to be with my family. :)

   Let's talk about Black Friday.

I will NEVER EVER shop on Black Friday. Ya know why? Because I am NOT getting trampled to death just so I can get a good deal on Christmas presents. I shared this one post on Facebook and it said, BLACK FRIDAY: because only in America, people trample each other for sales exactly ONE DAY after being thankful for what they already have. AND THAT IS SOOOOO TRUE!!!! I don't care WHAT your excuse is. If you say that you are thankful for everything and then you go and camp out at a store for a night just to get good deals, you are obviously not thankful. It's just wrong. :p My dad, brother and I last year made the mistake of going to Wal-Mart for dog food on Black Friday.....First time I had been to a store on Black Friday. It was HORRIBLE. Imma just leave it at that.

   Now that I'm done with my rant....HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!! I hope you all have a wonderful day with your families and friends! :D And I hope I made you second guess going shopping on Black Friday. :) But even if you do go shopping, I still think you are awesome and will be praying you don't get trampled to death! :)

About Me: Sarah!

 Hey guys!!!


     I am soo excited to be blogging with my bestie!!! Here is my story:


  It all started on May 16th 2014. On that day, I started my first blog (TheBeautyInMe110402.wordpress.com)....I had started blogging twice a week, but then it grew to almost every day! At this point, I have 400 views.....Not as many as Lauren, but its still pretty good. :) So then, time passed and it was going pretty good, but THEN Lauren got me into anime (thanks L. :P LOL). So I started a new blog.....about Anime...Lauren had already started a blog about anime at that point.....so anyways, I didn't really like competition soooooooooo......I invited her to be co-author of anime4life!!!!!!! So THAT was going pretty well...until....I got writers block. :p Don't get it. It stinks. Then I kinda fell away from both of the blogs and haven't written since.........

  Recently, I have notice that I need to lose weight. Yes. Me. So I started this program called the 21 Day Fix. I thought it would be cool to track my weight loss journey so I started a blog called thefattestblogyouhaveeverseen.blogspot.com.....It has been hard....but I am proud to say that I have lost 12lbs. and 11" in a matter of four weeks! :D

 I have had a rocky journey, but it has been worth it!

About me; Lauren

  

Lauren LA's "About me";

       I love to blog and try to come up with new makeup techniques. I also love Coke. Lol I'll usually be blogging about fashion, new makeup techniques, and girl stuff in general. My most successful blog so far is my first blog, 2 Draw Life, my blog say is for "Everything from Fashion to Friends". I started it on May 20th of 2014 and it's already gotten almost 2,000 views! I think all the typing and Bloggers Block was SO worth it! Lol I'm hoping to reach 2,000 views on 2 Draw Life by May 20th of 2015, and so far it's going pretty good! I'll usually be posting every day or every 1-5 days on The Blog Sistas, so keep checking back or subscribe for free!

Our story

 Hey! This is Laure LA, part of The Blog Sistas duo, and this is Our Story!
    We haven't been friends for like all of our lives, yet our friendship is stronger than that! Here's how our blogging came to be;

  We became best friends about a the week after we met and loved  to hang out at the bowling alley. Months later someone had suggested I (Lauren) start blogging. The idea was just kinda procrastinated for a while until I heard it again. I told Sare about it and she automatically said "I should start a blog!" and so she did. Lol She got her first blog, thebeautyinme110402.wordpress.com (The Beauty in Me 110402) on May 18th 2014, and has gotten Lots of views! I got my first blog, 2drawlife.blogspot.com on May 20th 2014, and have also gotten lots of views. We used to just do makeup reviews and things like that, but then it grew from us posting once or twice a week to posting multiple times on our multiple blogs. Some days were better than others though...if one of us had writers block, the other would be on a roll. Lol Sometimes we got competitive, or at least thought we were, and sometimes we thought someone copied someone. Trying to blog along side each other would sometimes get hard because our views and posts kept becoming neck and neck, but we worked things out and have now started a blog especially for both of us!
