Mickey Mouse Mini Blueberry Cheese Cake Bites

Mickey Mouse Mini Blueberry Cheese Cake Bites

I received free products to host the Disney Side @Home Celebration and B.J. Wholesalec Club provided a gift card towards food. As always, all opinions are my own.

I recently hosted a Disney Side Celebration and was inspired to come up with a few Mickey Mouse themed recipes. This recipe came to me at the last minute as I was about to put out the cheese cake bites that I bought at B.J. Wholesale Club. They were already pre-sliced and pre-made so it was a no brainer to add something extra to them. It took only minutes to add the blue berried to the top.

This week, I had the amazing opportunity to meet & interview the extremely talented & vibrant duo PERIKO & JESSI LEON at the Starbucks “Noches Culturales” in Miami, where customers were invited to celebrate culture, tradition, & the new Caramel Flan Latte accompanied with live acoustic music!
Periko and Jessi
On this particular night of “Noches Culturales” we had something extra special to celebrate…it marked the 1-year anniversary of the duo together making latin pop rock music magic! Combined, their musical talents include composition, singing, & songwriting. Together they play guitar, ukulele, bass, & percussion instruments. Coming from successful solo careers, it was no surprise that their magical union occurred given the chemistry of the perfect blending of their voices. They have performed together in countless venues including The 14th Latin Grammy Street Party, Premios Lo Nuestro, Latin Billboard Showcase, Dewaristas con Juanes as Finalists, St. Jude Children’s Hospital Gala, Radio Amor 107.5, Lexus Listening Lounge, Univision, Showbiz (CNN), MegaTV,  America TeVe, Sirius XM, MTV Tr3s, Telemundo, Telfutura, among others.

BA Star Palette: Easy Smokey Eye

BA Star Palette: Easy Smokey Eye

Samples were provided for review purposes. All opinions are 100% my own. 

BA Star sent me the Natural Eye Shadow Palette with Gel Glitters and the Glue. Eye Shadow & Glitter Base to review. BA Star eye makeup is creamy, but not so creamy that it slides off with humidity or when you sweat. It has a staying power that I have not seen from other cream shadows. The pigment is also awesome. I’ve bought creamy shadows that slipped off quickly and had no pigment. This was a nice change!
