BEHIND THE SCENES VOL. 4 – WHAT YOU’VE MISSED
It has been a fairly blah week here at the Stephen’s household. Other than a few doctor’s appointments and lunch dates, I haven’t left the house. However, I do have a few fun details to share with you, a few giveaways, and some exciting news from one of my friends. I hope you’ll enjoy today’s post.
Joe and I went to eat at a cute little eatery specializing in healthy foods and juices. I had eaten there before, but it was Joe’s first time. I had a slice of tomato pie which was delicious, but since Joe had eaten earlier, he just had a bottle of the Majik Moment Juice. It contained Blue Algae, so I had to take a photo to send to my daughter, who has a degree in Marine Biology. She was as shocked as I was that he tried the juice and loved it. When I went to pay for the meal, Joe said, “grab some more of those drinks.” The lady told him that they were cheaper if he bought 6, so he picked out 6 different ones, and we left.
Later, he got to looking at the bill and about died when he saw that each little bottle was $7. I laughed and told him that he only paid $39.50 since he bought 6 of them. The moral of the story; pay attention to the price before you buy. Lol!
I saw a video of someone cutting their hydrangeas, putting them in a bowl/pot without water, and letting them dry. The color is supposed to stay the same, so I decided to give it a try. Here is my bouquet of hydrangeas, so I’m crossing my fingers that they stay this pretty. If you’ve ever tried this method, let me know how it turned out for you. I thought you had to hang them upside down (🤷) to let them dry, and I don’t have the patience for that.
I hope you liked today’s post. If so, PLEASE remember to pin my post on Pinterest.

Hi Tanya,
To dry your hydrangeas, just cut them and place them in a vase. There is no need to turn them upside down. The color will be a little darker / more muted than when they are still attached to the mother bush. I have an arrangement that I did a couple of weeks before Thanksgiving last year. The flowers look just as nice as they did nearly a year ago. Just try not to touch the flowers after you arrange them in your vase. Petals will fall if you touch the dried blossoms!
It amazes me when I think about how much people spend for bottled water these days. Years ago, people would have looked at you funny if you would have paid for water when you could just get it right out of the kitchen faucet!! Times change! I’d love a pair of the Kate Spade studs. I’m seeing a lot of stud earring again, so I’m guessing they are coming back in fashion. Keep up the good work Tania! You’re a must read for me every day!
Thanks for the sneak peek, cute stuff!
I love the variety in your posts from fashion to makeup. its like “talking” to a friend sharing details, but not TMI!!
Always look forward to your posts!
Your blog today was different. I enjoyed it. Looking at the skin care products was interesting. These items are a little above my price range, but I enjoyed looking at the different products.
Just ordered the jeans in the black wash!
I love your blog and always enjoy a good “Joe” story, lol!
I seem to want ALL the Fall items you are showing!
Thanks!
I do so enjoy your emails. Love the fashion tips, but I also like the stories about Joe. He sounds a lot like my hubby!
Love your fashion sense! You inspire me!
