I made my first batch of Kale Chips last night. I have two people in my life who have been raving about them, Shelley and Mandie -- So I thought I would give them a whirl. The ones that cooked correctly were wonderful!
Here is the process and the recipe:
Ingredients:
1 bunch of Kale
Olive Oil
Salt
Preheat Oven to:
375 - 400 degrees.
Wash kale and either spin dry or pat dry.
Remove leaves from the stems and tear kale in uniform chip sized pieces (for even cooking time).
"What a great pop of color at the toe."
Stacy London was in great form at the O Magazine conference last week.
(Did I mention that I went to the O Magazine conference and that Oprah was there?)
Stacy is the host of the TLC show What Not to Wear
where she helps fashion "Don'ts" become fashion "Do's".
I
wanted to share with you the notes that I took. Since there were 4000
women and 14 men at the conference -- this is mainly targeted to the
women readers.
Stacy's Tips:
1. Accent the smallest part of your shape -- either the waist or right above the waist.
2.
Use inspiration from others. If you have the same coloring as Nicole
Kidman (fair and redhead) wear the same colors that look great on her.
3. Skirts are to be to the knee. No minis.
4.
Size and fit is the most important. You look larger if in baggy
clothes --- and if your clothes are too tight -- people notice. Don't
worry about size -- worry about fit.
5. Be age appropriate.
6. Buy softer neutrals as a staple (navy, charcoal gray, chocolate brown)
7. If you are wearing a v-neck -- don't wear a choker necklace. Match your necklace with the collar line.
8. If you are larger chested -- a high stance 3 button jacket is the best type of jacket.
9. If you select a bigger earring -- wear a smaller necklace and vice-versa.
10. If you have slimmer, longer limbs, accent them with a narrow sleeves and a shorter top to accent the leg line.
And there you have it. Next week - I will be profiling another speaker that I say at the O conference.
PS: (Did I mention that Oprah was there?)
I can not believe it. I am still a bit numb.
This past weekend -- I went to the O You! conference in San Francisco. O You! is put on my Oprah's Magazine. It was a thrill-filled day with seminars, vendors, book signings and so much more!
Angie, BFF from NE, came to visit and we drove up from Santa Cruz to San Francisco Saturday morning.
We arrived and got the celebrity bag. Well, it isn't so much a celebrity bag -- but it sure sounds cool to say that. The super cute orange and purple total contained:
1. An O You! Journal
2. An O You! orange pen
3. A coupon for Suze Orman's Women & Money
4. $10 off lunch coupon
5. Other vendor supplied items
