Welcome to our Weekend Wind-Down Party! I took last weekend off because my blog was supposed to be in the process of moving. I have been working on a new site design behind the scenes. To make a long story short, my web host is still in the process of moving files. Once everything's complete, you'll see a new look, but you'll still come to this same address.

This weekend, I can't wait to see all your spring-themed posts. While you're here, be sure to click on some of the other posts that are linked up below. Our link party has been growing each weekend, so with more and more people visiting, you'll have lots of eyes on your posts.

You're welcome all this weekend to link up your foodie, diy, craft, inspirational, techie, frugal, and homemaking posts. (Please no giveaways or advertisements.) Remember, your posts will be seen on NINE blogs!

We will choose several features from the link up each week to highlight the following week. We will be pinning features to Pinterest and giving social media shout-outs! So link up, visit others, and have fun.

Important: If you want to be featured, please be sure you are linking back to one of our blogs in some way. We look on your posts, in the sidebar and for a "link party page" that you may have linked to us on.

No Grays, No Roots -- Just Highlighted, Natural-Looking Color With L'Oreal Age Perfect Hair Color


Disclosure: I am participating in a Vibrant Influencer network campaign for L’Oreal Excellence Age Perfect. I am receiving a fee for posting; however, the opinions expressed in this post are my own. I am in no way affiliated with L’Oreal Excellence Age Perfect and do not earn a commission or percent of sales.


How many of you ladies color your hair? I've been coloring my hair for years. When I was a little girl, my hair was golden blonde. As I got older, it changed color--into what I remember someone calling "dishwater blonde." I didn't know what color that was exactly, but to me it looked dull. I started coloring my hair to lighten and brighten it.

Here I am years later, and I still want my hair to look great, but I have some grays coming in. That means when I color my hair, I need to make sure my roots and my grays are blended away.

No Grays, No Roots -- Just Highlighted, Natural-Looking Color With Loreal Age Perfect Hair Color

I recently got to try L'Oreal's Age Perfect Color which is made to completely cover grays. This new hair color is specifically for those of use trying to hide a few (or several) gray hairs, but it's so much more!

L'Oreal Age Perfect Color gives you natural-looking, highlighted hair--not a flat, one-tone color. It's also gentle and actually adds volume and shine. The two-sided application comb makes it easy to apply the color on your roots, on your gray hair, or wherever you need it. This hair color couldn't be easier to use.
 
________________________________________________________


When my gray hair is growing back in I have a few ways I try to hide it. Not making a part in my hair is one trick to hide the roots. I put in a ponytail or wear a headband, but that's not foolproof. You can still see a few grays around my temples and right in the middle of my forehead in my "before" photo. (below)





After coloring my hair with L'Oreal Age Perfect Color, everything is blended, and the grays are covered. My hair has great, dimensional color and feels soft and conditioned too--better than before I colored!

No Grays, No Roots -- Just Highlighted, Natural-Looking Color With Loreal Age Perfect Hair Color


I encourage you to give L'Oreal Age Perfect Color a try! Click here to see which shade is just right for you.

Orange Crush Soda Cupcakes


Here's a recipe for colorful and delicious Orange Crush soda cupcakes. These will be a hit with your kids anytime, and they definitely say "spring" to me!

Orange Crush Soda Cupcakes

Orange Crush Soda cupcakes

 
Cupcake ingredients:

1 stick unsalted butter, softened 
2 cups all-purpose flour 
1 Tbsp. baking powder 
1/2 tsp. fine salt 
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar 
3 large eggs 
1 cup whole milk 
1/2 cup orange Crush soda

 Orange Crush Cupcakes ingredients

Directions for cupcakes:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees, and prepare your cupcake pan with cupcake liners. Set aside.

Whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl, and set aside. Beat together butter and granulated sugar with a mixer on medium speed until combined. Add eggs and beat well, scraping the bowl when necessary. Reduce speed to low and gradually add flour mixture--beat until combined. Add the milk and the Crush soda, and beat until blended.

Use an ice cream scooper or a big spoon, and portion batter evenly into the cupcake tins.

Bake for 18 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.

When baked, set aside, and let cupcakes cool while you prepare the icing.

Buttercream frosting ingredients:

3 cups confectioner's sugar 
1 cup butter 
1 Tbsp. of Orange Crush soda 
1 Tbsp. whipping cream 
Orange food coloring
 
Directions for icing:

In a mixer, using the whisk attachment, mix together sugar and butter. Mix on low speed until blended, and then increase speed to medium. Beat for three more minutes.

Add the orange Crush soda and whipping cream, and continue to beat on medium speed for a few more minutes. Add in more powdered sugar if necessary. Split icing in two. Add a few drops of orange to one bowl of the icing. 

Use a piping bag and a star tip to pipe icing onto the cupcakes. These cupcakes were decorated with half white and half orange icing, but you can ice them however you choose. Enjoy!
