One of my favorite bloggers posted a blog about chalking hair and I could NOT wait to try it. Inna, from Baking in Couture (http://www.bakingincouture.com/) posted this post and I just had to give it a shot. It looked so fun, without the commitment of permanently dying your hair. http://www.bakingincouture.com/baking-in-couture/2012/11/how-to-chalk-your-hair-.html
My boss would probably kill me if I came I with pink tips so I decided I would make this project for a Friday night & I was pleasantly surprised by the results! Inna’s tutorial is simply AMAZING so I am not going to try to replicate it but here were my results to “hair chalking.” I found the soft chalk pastels at the local Michael’s craft stores for under $5.

I like to spend spring weeknights grilling healthy meals. I wanted to share this delicious recipe that makes the perfect healthy appetizer- only 80 calories! Enjoy!
Ingredients
2/3 cup chopped plum tomato
1/4 cup Mozzarella Cheese
1 tsp Olive Oil
1/2 tsp finely chopped fresh Rosemary
1/8 tsp Black Pepper
Garlic, 1 clove (crushed)
4 (5 inch) Portabella Mushrooms
2 Tbsp Lemon Juice
2 tbsp soy sauce
2 tsp fresh Parsley
Directions
Combine tomato, cheese, 1/2 tsp oil, rosemary, pepper, and garlic in a small bowl.
Remove brown gills from mushroom caps.
Combine 1/2 tsp oil, juice, and soy sauce . Brush over both the sides of the mushroom caps. Place mushroom caps, stem sides down, on grill rack coated with cooking spray, and grill 5 minutes on each side or until soft.
Spoon 1/4 cup tomato mixture into each mushroom cap. Cover and grill 3 minutes or until cheese is melted. Sprinkle with parsley and fresh parmesan cheese.
