Where to go for your hair.

So the secret is out...I am not a natural blonde. I have been to dozens of salons, in Philadelphia, and in the suburbs, but most visits ended in disappointment. Somehow, my blonde ends up orangey...if that is even a word.
Once a blonde finds and amazing spot, we hate to give it out, because, frankly, it'll be that much harder to get an appointment. 
But I'll share it with you anyway...and hopefully, good Karma will find me.
Her name is Trisha, she's the owner of Barberella, and she is FABULOUS. The Salon is located on Butler Pike in downtown Ambler.
My blonde is blonde...and my cut is great.(although please don't go by my real estate photo-those things are brutal!)

I love supporting local businesses, especially good ones.
If you go, please tell her Jen Kuznits sent you.

Snow ice cream

I am from Maine...so this snow is not so impressive. It is however, completely annoying. But in the spirit of turning lemons into lemonade, let's turn snow into ice cream.

It's really pretty easy.

First, gather some clean snow...about a gallon's worth.
1 cup of white sugar
1 tablespoon of vanilla extract
2 cups of milk


Simply add the sugar and vanilla in the snow, until you like the taste. then stir in just enough milk, for the desired consistency.

Voila!

Feel free to experiment with toppings and syrups.

Have fun!
Watch your backs shoveling.
