Easy outfit and dinner ... - Pines and Palms

So excited the weather has finally reached below 80 in Florida lol which actually feels cool. Last night I used the crockpot to make one of my favorite healthy and easy meals. Its pretty much no fail! I just ordered this skinnytaste crockpot book!

I used the crock pot a lot especially being at home its easy to throw something in, but if you leave for work in the morning you can lower the setting and it will be ready for dinner.

This crockpot is on sale right now for a great deal . I got my sister one last year for Christmas. Its never too early to shop! LOL!

OK on to this outfit….details below pict. The best part about this shirt is it has thumbholes (I clearly didnt notice til after pictures! )
