Time to Go Red, White and Blue!

Uncle Sam style top hats may get a giggle, but they just won’t do if you want your daughter to look lovely for the parades.

So get inspired by the national colors of red, white and blue. You can get hair accessories in patriotic hues at the No Slippy Hair Clippy® store.

Vivid Red

The color red has a bold personality, so wearing a bow in this stand-out shade lends an aura of inner strength. The Dottie bow in smooth grosgrain material carries a pattern of cute mini-dots that pop out from the deep royal red. For styling, you can pin this bow over pigtails or go for the trendier braided bow if she has longer hair.

Wholesome White


White evokes purity and grace, and your daughter can imbibe these qualities when she wears the sweet Emily bow. The grosgrain ribbing gives this design a subtle flair, and can be paired easily with the more festive holiday costumes. Whether she’s marching down Main Street as part of the parade or sitting at your side watching the floats pass by, she’ll always look fresh wearing this two-tailed bow.

All-around Blue


Blue is proud and versatile, as can be seen in the deep navy of the Abby bow. Beautiful stitching and deep color make this a great accessory no matter her outfit.

Brand New Byrnn


And introducing our brand new Brynn bow, available in a variety of colors including Red, Shocking Pink, Dark Brown-Pink, and beautiful Navy pictured above. Whatever your choice, remember to have fun, take lots of pictures, and treasure these moments.

Happy Fourth of July, from No Slipply Hair Clippy!

Meatball Mania!

What's a holiday without holiday food? One of my favorites has got to be meatballs! They're yummy, easy to make and just about everybody loves it. It's kind of nostalgic, too, as I remember helping my mom to make these for Christmas when I was a kid. Of course, my mom's recipe is a huge family secret (We have all sworn to secrecy, sorry!) But I recently found a recipe in AllRecipes.com that approximates hers. Plus, it's even easier. Since this season is all about sharing and giving, try this out yourself and tell me how it turns out!




Prep time: 10 minutes
Cook time: 20 minutes
Serves 8

Ingredients:
1 lb ground beef
1/2 lb ground veal
1/2 lb ground pork
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 eggs
1 1/2 tbsp chopped Italian flat leaf parsley
salt and ground black pepper to taste
2 cups stale Italian bread, crumbled
1 1/2 cups lukewarm water
1 cup olive oil
1 cup freshly grated Romano cheese

Procedure:
1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet. Fry meatballs in batches. When the meatball is very brown and slightly crisp, remove from the heat and drain on a paper towel. (If your mixture is too wet, cover the meatballs while they are cooking so that they hold their shape better.)
2. Place cooked meatballs into marinara sauce and cook 15 more minutes.
3. Blend breadcrumbs into meat mixture. Slowly add the water 1/2 cup at a time. The mixture should be very moist but still hold its shape. (You may use about 1 1/4 cups of water).
4. Shape into meatballs. Combine beef, veal and pork in a large bowl. Add garlic, eggs, cheese, parsley, salt and pepper.

Serve to starving guests and if the kids are around, pop in a DVD of Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs :) Happy holidays!
