A Break From Makeup: Crab Stuffed Avocado

I'm so so sorry for the lack of updates.  I accidentally left my camera charger at my parents house so my Canon has been dead. :(
However I went home for the weekend and was able to retrieve it so hopefully I can start posting again!
To tide you over I wanted to share a recipe with you that I absolutely love.  Crab stuffed avocado!!


If you like avocado and crab then this is a must.  Its so delicious and tastes like a comfort food while being low calorie and healthy for you! Plus its super quick  and easy to make!

Calorie info thanks to My Fitness Pal


So here is my process:
1. Cut open an avocado and remove the pit
2. Mix 2 oz of crab, 2 Tbsp of cream cheese, and as many cut up cherry tomatoes as you desire.  I only used one because I didn't want the tomato flavor to be too strong.  I think I may have also added a tad bit of lemon juice. You can also add salt, pepper, cayenne, or your favorite seasoning to taste.
3. Plop half of the mixture into each avocado and sprinkle with your desired kind and amount of cheese.  
4. Stick it in a toaster oven for 10 minutes at 350-375 degrees.

These are so delicious, I've done this for three separate meals now.  For dinner I usually use a whole avocado but if I'm having it for lunch I cut the recipe in half.

Flormar Color Madness Fusion Baked Eye Shadow in Missed in Heaven


While in Turkey I made sure to pick up some European exclusive makeup items! First up for swatching is a new item! This is Flormar's fusion baked eye shadow in the shade Missed in Heaven from the 2014 Color Madness collection.


Once I saw that pink I knew I had to have it! My mom even bought one.


As you can see it is primarily a shimmery deep pink with black and light pink swirled within


Here is a swatch of the shadow after running my brush over the entire product.  As you can see over NYX Milk the color actually changes from a mid toned pink to a dark purple! Over Urban Decay's Primer Potion it remains the same color but just sticks a bit better.


On the left here is a swatch of just the light pink and also just the black.  I used all three of these possible colors to create an eye shadow look using this shadow!


On my lid is the main color, in my crease is just the black, and for the high light I used the light pink part. On my lips is BareMinerals in Get Ready.

Overall I really like this color.  It is versatile and with a single eye shadow I can create an entire eye look which makes it ideal for travel! 

Where to buy: www.Flormar.com
Price: 19,50 TL (about $9.75)
