Things I currently want/need

• I need some pretty, colorful dresses for spring! I'm so excited for the warm weather.
• After seeing a neat/pretty refrigerator in a magazine, I decided to follow suit and buy some Tupperware to get rid of the clutter.
• I only own one statement necklace, but after seeing so many elaborate, bigger ones, I want one for myself. Perfect for wearing with a simple tee and jeans.
• My obsession for rings that take up half your finger is still going strong.
• I usually don't wear blush, but N.Y.C.'s "Peach Glow" looks so natural.
• I'm a huge snacker and edamame are both yummy and healthy. (image credit)

Aphrodite's Pink Nightie

I haven't painted my nails a bold pink in a long time. All the ones I currently have are pretty old and I'm tired of the colors. I love this O.P.I. pink, called Aphrodite's Pink Nightie, since it's bright yet not neon-y. It's my new spring color to celebrate the weather finally getting warmer (even though it's been crazy windy here for some reason).

Super simple sweet potato fries

I've always loved sweet potatoes, but have never made anything with them myself. When I read how easy fries in general are to make, I decided to give sweet potato fries a try. I can't get enough of potatoes, no matter how they're cooked, but fries are a definite guilty pleasure. Sweet potato fries take the best of both worlds, and they're healthy!

This recipe is so ridiculously simple and requires little effort. I had a bag of sweet potatoes that had been in my cupboard for a few days and I finally took them out to make these fries. First I peeled the skins off (though you don't have to), and cut them into strips. Then I tossed them lightly with some extra virgin olive oil and salt. I pre-heaeted my oven to 350°F while I arranged my sweet potato strips onto a baking sheet. Then I placed them in the oven for about 20 minutes (or longer if you want them extra crispy!). Then they're done. So delicious!
