Maintaining your Boo's beard!
What you will need:

Oil (i like to use coconut or castor oil)
towel
Water bottle (unless you are doing this in the shower)

1. Spray the beard with water (saturate)
2. exfoliate in a circular motion to ensure you are getting all dry/dead skin up
3. spray beard to rinse exfoliate out
4. using the face wash give the beard an invigorating washing. use the tips of your fingers to add in a slight massage
5. take spray bottle and rinse out the facial wash
6. Apply leave in conditioner to entire beard. This is the step when you want to detangle with your finger tips
7. Apply the oil all over.  This is to seal in the moisturizer and leave a nice natural shine.

Breakfast Sandwich on the go in less than 2 mins!

Being a working mother of 3 and always on the go convenience is one major thing I need in my life.  I'm huge on making sure they get a good meal but I don't always the time to cook it so when I ran across these sandwiches I wasted no time making them.

What you will need:
Eggs (1 per sandwich you are making)
Cheese
English muffin
Breakfast meat (optional)

Heat oven on 350

Grease your pan
Crack egg in each cup
Add seasoning and cheese
Pop it in the over for 10-13 mins (mine took 13)
Let cool completely before removing
Remove and cut in half long ways so the egg can cover the entire muffin
Add your meat and cheese
Individually wrap each sandwich with parchment paper and put them in a freezer bag
Freeze overnight
When you are ready to eat them be sure to un-wrap them and place on a microwave safe dish
Microwave for 2 minutes.

Additional suggestions:
veggie sandwich: mushrooms, feta, spinach
Meat lovers: Sausage AND ham
Egg white:  Separate yolk from white then add to pan

If you have a family that likes options, you can make a variety and label them. Make sure you jot the cook time on the label as well!
