St. Patty's Day Recap + March Birchbox!

So I think it's official, 2012 is the year of the best holidays ever

And you know what's great about it? We're not even doing anything exciting!

Yupp, most of these holidays have been spent sitting at home on our lovely couches, indulging in delicious food. 

(See V Day Recap for example)

St. Patrick's Day was no exception. 






Not Pictured Kim was a part of this epic celebration/feast, but somehow didn't make it into any of the pictures. :(

You know you have good, quality friends when you can sit on a couch for hours, and still have the most amazing time together. 

I'll drink to that. 


In other news, I got my March Birchbox!


I ended up getting the Teen Vogue box, and I was pretty excited about what was inside:


1. Peter Thomas Roth Max Anti-Shine Mattifying Gel

2. Twistband Hair Tie

3. Annick Goutal Petite Cherie (perfume)

4. Essie Luxeffects

5. Tarte LipSurgence Lip Tint

I love everything! I've already tried a few things, and can't wait to write my review for this month. (If you missed last month's review, check it out here.)

That's all for now, folks. Come back for Part 3 of Recipe Week later today! There may or may not be a St. Patrick's Day recipe waiting for you... Just saying.

Those are the best kinds of celebrations! Sitting on the couch with your bffs and having a few drinks!

And ahhh the last time I had a Guinness I was 21 and decided it was a good idea to beer bong an entire one... Never again will a drink a Guinness, ughhhh.

LOVE your Birchbox this month!! I want that Essie nail polish!

Irish car bombs...they are now officially on my list of things to try! I'm guessing they include Baileys? Love Baileys :)
How fantastic are those green cookies.
That Birchbox looks interesting, I wonder if we can get them here. Nice surprise to show up on the doorstep once a month.
