So I am totally a pro at this one guys – my daughter is Captain Marvel obsessed. She had her birthday right before Captain Marvel came out, so I scrounged the internet for the best Captain Marvel gifts I could find – and I wanted to share it with you!
This Captain Marvel Bracelet is absolutely GORGEOUS and would be a perfect gift for any Captain Marvel fan in your life!
This Loungefly wallet is freakin’ awesome too. I got it for my daughter for Easter and she fell in love with it, and the purse that goes with it!
And I don’t care if you are a kid or an adult, EVERYONE’s gotta’ take a lunch to work now and again right? This lunchbox is awesome, and I’m half tempted to order it for myself.
I’m a big key chain fan, and I love the pewter key chains (I have several from vacation spots, they last forever!) So obviously I love the Captain Marvel pewter key chain. This would be a great add on gift – or for the stockings at Christmas!
A few more must have’s , if you don’t own a Pop Socket yet – WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU? I’m not sure how I ever held my phone before lol. This Captain Marvel one would go well with a Captain Marvel phone case! This makes a great gift for anyone of any age that loves a hero!
People go grocery shopping all the time. You buy new things,
and before you know it, you need to purchase them again. Food is something that
can’t stay put. We constantly eat, so a lot of things need to be repurchased. Grocery
stores are the perfect spot to locate fresh fruit, vegetables, and other types
of food.
Luckily they are very convenient and easy to locate. Chances
are that a store like that is located around your neighborhood. You can quickly
go out, walk a very short distance, and buy everything you need from it. Before
you know it, you’re home once again preparing a good meal for the entire
family.
However, not all stores have the same quality ingredients. It is advisable that you ask around for preferences before you head on to buy something. Some are too small, and people usually don’t buy a lot of stuff from them because they don’t have much to offer. On the other hand, bigger ones have a broader selection of ingredients that you can buy and use to cook meals.

By now, you must have a favorite grocery that you frequently visit to shop. Everyone does. In which supermarket you enter depends on your preference. But some facts determine the quality of a store. Some things attract people more to a particular grocery store than others. Here are some of the most interesting ones:
Bigger Space
Our brains are designed to function in a particular way. If
we enter a store and see how big it is, it immediately intrigues us. With such
a vast area, we are tempted to search it almost entirely. You would be probably
thinking that there are a lot of products there that other shops don’t have.
Sure, you can waste a lot more time in there than in a smaller one, but at
least you get to see all the options that it offers.
And sometimes you just want to spend time looking at various
products and deciding to buy something that wasn’t even on the shopping list. If
you’re the type of person who likes wasting time in grocery stores, then the
bigger ones are perfect for you.
A more full area means more choices and decisions. Let’s say
that you’re in a different country that has a different culture and tradition.
Entering a large store in a state like that only broadens your curiosity. You
would want to find anything out of the ordinary or something that is not
produced in your own country. Then when you head home, you can use it for cooking
specialties. The selection of products is, and you wouldn’t know where to look
first.
Organization and
display
It’s not just about having a lot of products, it is how they
are arranged and placed. A quality store needs to have an island, square and
wall tables as well as orchard bins. They are the display tables where a lot of
fresh ingredients are put. From fruit to vegetables, you can witness a variety
of color placed on highly practical display tables. Moreover, the tables serve as a way to
organize all the other ingredients and products, as well as to give the grocery
a specific look. First impressions always count.
Let’s say that you own a store. You would want customers to visit and shop all the time and as frequently as possible. Who owner wouldn’t? Therefore, the grocery must look organized to attract more people. Every quality store needs a perfect display setting that will immediately attract people’s attention. With this, you enhance your customer’s shopping experience. They will be back before you know it to shop again. For more details about the display, tables check out Lemontree products among others to find the best option. This can come in real handy if you plan to open one in the first place.
Polite and helpful employees
The employees of the store need to be at disposal at all
times. Someone might not be able to find a particular ingredient, and there
should always be someone from the employees to help them out. Employees should
also be polite to customers because this will attract more of them. More
customers are always good for business. If you’ve experienced a similar
situation, then you know that you’re shopping from a quality store.
On the other hand, a lot of time employees are discontent
about something, and they take it out on the customers. This can either cost
them their job or the loss of a customer. Be sure to notice stuff like that.
You deserve to be helped and treated with respect. After all, it’s your money,
and the shop’s success depends on it.
On the other hand, if the employees are beneficial, then you
will surely come back again to shop for ingredients. Also, you can recommend
the store to other people. They will surely thank you for it.
The freshness of the
products
Another crucial thing is that you get fresh products for the money you give to the cashiers. Some grocery stores are, and there are a lot of products placed in them. This doesn’t mean that employees shouldn’t check the expiration date as often as they can. After all, they get paid for doing that. Unfortunately, sometimes they miss something, and you can end up buying an expired product. If this happens, make sure to return the item and have it replaced with a new and fresh one.

The same goes for fruit and vegetables. Make sure that the
items are colorful and fresh instead of brownish and incredibly soft. For
example, if a banana is no longer bright yellow but brown, it tells you that
the fruit has been there for a while and clearly no one has gotten rid of it.
This shouldn’t happen in quality grocery stores. They should always display
fresh ingredients so that people can enjoy eating them without feeling that
something is wrong with them.
There are very limited places that I will shop for clothes – just because we’re plus size doesn’t meant that we want to dress in moo moo’s , and polyester pants – which is why I’m so excited about the sale at Macy’s this weekend!
I found some super cute tops that I have in my cart , and I’m almost ready to complete my order. You can never go wrong with black – this peek-a-boo sweetheart top would be perfect for a night out (or maybe even for work)
Of course the other top I love is black as well, but also comes in HOT PINK – it’s a bit dressier, but completely gorgeous and would look good on any plus size body type. This lace sleeved top is definitely going to look amazing with some black capri pants!
Also ,if you are going to a wedding this summer – OMG the dresses! I am absolutely in LOVE LOVE ombré pleated satin gown. It is absolutely gorgeous and even though I don’t know of any wedding invites on the horizon, there is always a possibility right??
These are FABULOUS deals you don’t want to miss out out – hurry! Sale ends 5/27!
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Generously spray a 12” pizza pan with cooking spray and set aside.
To rice the cauliflower, place chopped cauliflower florets (at least ½ of a large head of cauliflower) in a food processor and pulse just until it reaches a rice-like consistency. Scoop out two cups full and place in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave for 5 minutes and then allow it to cool on the counter for a 3-4 minutes.
(Don’t skip steps 3-4 – they are key to crust holding together) Transfer the cooled cauliflower to a fine mesh strainer and press to release any excess water.
Place a clean and thin dish towel over your microwave safe bowl and transfer the cauliflower rice to the center of the towel. Wrap the sides of the towel around the cauliflower and squeeze until you have gotten as much moisture out of the cauliflower as you can.
Place the drained cauliflower back in the bowl and add the remaining dough ingredients. Stir to combine.
Transfer the pizza dough to the prepared pizza pan and press to flatten into an even crust – being sure not to make the crust to thin. Bake for 15 minutes.
Place tomato paste and water in a small bowl and stir to combine. Spread evenly onto crust.
Sprinkle cheeses evenly on pizza followed by toppings (except for parsley). Place pizza back in the oven just until cheese has melted.
Remove from oven and sprinkle with freshly chopped parsley. Slice and serve warm
