To go along with yesterday's His Gift Guide, today I'll be sharing a few things for the ladies. FYI, I'd be as pleased as punch to own any of the following. Email me for my mailing address (just kidding if that's presumptuous). Buy it: Perfect Lotion, Water Bottle, Stress Soother, Infinity Wrap, YB Wine, Gift Cards. Wanna hit up this perfume...
So, I obviously couldn't wear yesterday's dream outfit today since I didn't/don't own any of those things, but I put together what I think is a pretty perfect Thanksgiving outfit with some items I did have. This picture is actually from a last week, since I planned the outfit in advance, but I'm also wearing it today. Can I just talk about this skirt for a minute? I won it in a give away on Melisa's lovely Pie N' The Sky blog a month or so ago, and I have already...
Some of our friends are having a Halloween party this weekend, so I've been keeping an eye out for Halloween-themed party foods for the past several days. I think I've decided on the following two: BLACK BEAN GUACAMOLE (with blue corn tortilla chips) AND CANDY CORN FUDGE! Assuming I don't eat all the fudge while I'm making it, I think these guys will both make pretty delicious party treats. How about you? Are there any especially scary recipes you can't wait to...
photo credit: Claud Forsb I've never been a huge fan of eCards. I'd usually rather have a card that I can actually hold with human handwriting on it (as opposed to...fonts). But I discovered today that sending eCards actually has some benefits (aside from the good karma that likely goes along with not using tons of paper). When you send Care2 eCards, you earn butterfly credits. According to Care2's website, "Credits can be redeemed for meaningful gifts like safe drinking water,carbon...
I have a hair appointment next Tuesday, and I've convinced myself that I need bangs. Imagine that! I'd really appreciate some help in the way of advice on particular bang type. I'm having trouble deciding which kind of bangs I want and, more importantly, which kind would look best. Which of these bangs would be best suited to my face shape/facial features? Source I mean, this isn't my first rodeo, so to speak. I've had bangs before: Thanks in advance for all the good advice you guys are gonna give me! Also, Is it wrong that this Care2 article about the Top...
By the title, of course, I meant more environmentally friendly items for less money. It may not be clever or original, but it made me chuckle. And if you're usually broke like me, then you're gonna love re-nest's 25 Green Home Gifts Under $25. Before seeing this list, I actually purchased one of the items listed for Kirby as one of his smaller Christmas presents). I won't disclose which one, since Kirby may or may not read my blog sometimes (probably not). Anyway, how cute are those lavender sachets?! Annnd I don't hate that solid brass bicycle...
I've already mentioned to you guys a couple of things that are on my Christmas list- Soap-Making Supplies and Not Just a Pretty Face: The Ugly Side of the Beauty Industry. Here are a few other awesome finds that made my list: 1) Debutante Face Scrubbies- I'm the kind of person who buys gifts for friends that I secretly want for myself. I bought my good friend, Selena, a set of these for her birthday not long ago. Ever since then, I've been longing for them. They're very reasonably-priced, and they come in a...
1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. Married to the sea, because it cracks me the hell up. 8. Informative books like Not Just a Pretty Face: The Ugly Side of the Beauty Industry (which is totally on my Christmas list, BTW.) 9. Mexican Coke- It may not be healthy, but it's High Fructose Corn Syrup-free! 10. Ridiculous dessert recipes like this one for Praline Pumpkin Pecan Cheesecake. Happy Thanksgiving, guys! ...
